OPERATION

Electric motor - Check that the motor switch is in the center “O” OFF position, and then plug the power cord into an outlet. Insert
the pump tube into the fluid to be dispensed and the discharge hose into the container to be filled. While holding the motor handle
and hose, switch the motor to the “I” low speed. The fluid will begin to pump. If more flow is desired, switch the motor to the “II”
high speed setting. See figure 9 below. If the motor stops working and the reset button has popped out, press the switch to the
off position “O”. Review your application to make sure it is within the capabilities of the pump (reset button pops typically from an
overloading situation). Allow the motor to cool down for at least 30 minutes and then press in the reset button located on the side of
the motor handle. See figure 9.

Air motor – Turn the air motor ball valve to the closed position. Attach the air motor to an air supply line filtered, lubricated (use
detergent SAE #10 oil) and regulated to 40 psi and 27 CFM using a ¼” FNPT fitting. (Note: Finish Thompson offers an optional Filter
/ Lubricator, P/N A100009.) Insert the pump tube into the fluid to be dispensed and the hose in the container to be filled. While
holding the air motor ball valve and hose, slowly turn the valve to the desired flow rate. (Note: Pump performance will vary depend-
ing on air pressure & volume.) See figure 10 below.

Pump – The EFP & EFV model pumps have a built in hose & cord clip. You can use these clips to store your hose and keep the plug
off the floor free of damage & corrosion. When selecting a discharge hose you should use a ¾” ID reinforced chemically compatible
hose secured with a SS hose clamp. See figures 11 & 12 below.
