Components
Figure 3-B shows the location of the more components of
the Dry Prime pump, The function of each component or
control is described below:
16. Safety Chain – ALWAYS attach safety chain to the
towing vehicle. NEVER tow the pump with the safety
chain unattached! See towing section of this manual.
17. Towing Coupler/Ring – Attach this coupler to the towing
vehicle. Use only the specified ball diameter as indicated
on your coupler (2-5/16). Use of any other ball diameter
will create an extremely dangerous condition which can
result in separation of the coupler and ball or ball failure. A
3-inch tow ring is also available as an option.
18. Ajustable Tow Tongue – Tow tongue is adjustable by
removing locking pin to adjust tongue length then
reinserting pin to lock tongue in place.
19. Battery – Unit uses a +12VDC wet battery Group 31.
20. Engine – These pumps are equipped with either a
Deutz F3L914 or F4L914 three or four cylinder air-
cooled diesel engine.
21. Skid Lifting Bail –When lifting of the pump skid is required,
attach a strap or chain of adequate lifting capacity to lift the
skid.
22. Engine Control Box – Vandal proof (lockable) engine
control box displaying engine guages, tachometer,
tempertature, battery voltage, hour meter, oil pressure
and ignition switch.
23. Document Box – Contains all documentation relating
