2. Istruzzjonijiet tas-Sigurtà

WARNING: Failure to follow these safety instructions may result in fire, explosion, electric shock, or serious injury.

• Fjuwil tad-Diżil: Handle diesel fuel with extreme care. It is flammable. Do not smoke or use open flames near the pump or fuel.
• Ventilazzjoni: Operate the pump in a well-ventilated area to avoid accumulation of fuel vapors.
• Konnessjoni Elettrika: Ensure the 12V DC power source is correctly connected (positive to positive, negative to negative). Incorrect polarity can damage the pump.
• Sors tal-Enerġija: Use only a 12V DC power source. Do not connect to AC power.
• Is-sħana żejda: Do not run the pump dry for extended periods. Allow the pump to cool down if it becomes excessively hot.
• Manutenzjoni: Skonnettja l-enerġija qabel ma tagħmel xi manutenzjoni jew tindif.
• Tfal u Persunal Mhux Awtorizzat: Żomm lit-tfal u lill-persuni mhux awtorizzati 'l bogħod mill-pompa waqt it-tħaddim.
• Tagħmir Protettiv Personali: Wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) such as gloves and eye protection when handling fuel.
• Użu Intenzjonat: This pump is designed for diesel fuel transfer only. Do not use it for gasoline, alcohol, corrosive liquids, or water.

Komponenti Inklużi:

• Geko G00945 12V DC Diesel Transfer Pump
• Brass hose connectors (typically 2 units)
• Sealing rings/gaskets
• Battery clamps (for 12V DC power connection)
• Inlet filter (strainer)

4. Setup u Installazzjoni

1. Immuntar tal-Pompa:

   Secure the pump to a stable, flat surface using the integrated mounting bracket. Ensure the pump is positioned to allow for proper hose routing and ventilation. Use appropriate fasteners (not always included).

2. Konnessjoni tal-manka:
   • Attach the brass hose connectors to the pump's inlet and outlet ports. Ensure sealing rings are correctly seated to prevent leaks.
   • Connect a suitable suction hose (inlet) to the inlet port and a discharge hose (outlet) to the outlet port. Use hose clamps to secure all connections tightly.
   • Install the inlet filter (strainer) at the end of the suction hose that will be submerged in the diesel tank. This prevents debris from entering the pump.
3. Konnessjoni Elettrika:
   • Ensure the pump's on/off switch is in the "OFF" position.
   • Connect the red power cable from the pump to the positive (+) terminal of a 12V DC battery.
   • Connect the black power cable from the pump to the negative (-) terminal of the 12V DC battery.
   • Uża l-batterija pprovduta clamps for a secure connection. Verify polarity before proceeding.

5. Istruzzjonijiet Operattivi

1. Preparazzjoni:
   • Kun żgur li l-konnessjonijiet kollha tal-pajpijiet huma sikuri u ħielsa minn tnixxijiet.
   • Place the inlet hose with the filter into the diesel source tank.
   • Position the discharge hose into the receiving tank, ensuring it is securely placed to prevent spills.
2. Priming (if necessary):

   This pump is self-distributing (self-priming), meaning it can draw fuel without manual priming. However, for initial use or if the pump has been run dry, it may take a few moments for fuel to flow. Ensure the inlet hose is fully submerged.

3. Tibda tal-Pompa:

   Flip the on/off switch on the pump to the "ON" position. The pump will begin to operate, and fuel should start flowing shortly.
4. Monitoraġġ:

   Monitor the fuel transfer process. Do not leave the pump unattended during operation. Check for any leaks or unusual noises.

5. Twaqqif tal-Pompa:

   Once the desired amount of fuel has been transferred, or if the source tank is empty, flip the on/off switch to the "OFF" position.

6. Wara l-Operazzjoni:
   • Remove the inlet hose from the source tank.
   • Allow any remaining fuel in the hoses to drain into the receiving tank or a suitable container.
   • Skonnettja l-kejbils tad-dawl mill-batterija.

6. Manutenzjoni

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and reliable performance of your Geko G00945 pump.

• Cleaning the Inlet Filter: Periodically inspect and clean the inlet filter (strainer) to remove any accumulated debris. A clogged filter can reduce pump performance.
• Hose and Connection Inspection: Regularly check all hoses and connections for signs of wear, cracks, or leaks. Replace damaged components immediately.
• Konnessjonijiet elettriċi: Żgura cl batterijaamps and power cable connections are clean and tight. Corroded terminals can lead to poor performance or pump failure.
• Ħażna: When not in use, store the pump in a clean, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Ensure any residual fuel is drained from the pump and hoses.
• Korp tal-Pompa: Keep the exterior of the pump clean. Do not use harsh chemicals that could damage the housing.
