HOW TO USE:

• Prepare the drum: Ensure the drum or container you intend to pump from is stable and on a level surface. Remove the bung cap or opening cover from the drum.
• Assemble the pump: If using with a 55-gallon drum, attach the included extension tubes to the bottom of the pump shaft to ensure it reaches the drum’s base.
• Insert the pump: Carefully insert the pump into the drum’s bung opening. Ensure the pump’s fitting is securely seated in the opening. The pump is designed to fit 3/4 inch and 2 inch bung openings, as well as 2-5/8 inch flexspout openings on 5-gallon pails.
• Prime the pump (if necessary): For first-time use or after cleaning, you may need to perform a few initial strokes to draw liquid into the pump mechanism.
• Dispense liquid: Place your receiving container under the pump’s spout. Depress the pump handle fully to dispense liquid. Each full stroke dispenses 8 ounces.
• Adjust output (optional): If a smaller volume is desired, adjust the stroke tubes on the pump to dispense 2, 4, or 6 ounces per stroke. Refer to the pump’s markings for proper adjustment.
• Rotate spout: After dispensing, rotate the spout to a non-drip position to prevent residual drips and keep the area clean.
• Clean after use: After transferring liquids, especially different types, it’s recommended to pump clean water through the unit to flush out any residue and prevent cross-contamination.
