Allow 4” from fuel pick-up
to tank bottom. Allow
only 1” for flat bottom
tanks.
End tip of the fuel pick-up
pipe should have angle
so as to avoid picking up
dirt and
subsequent blockage
• Choose a protected mounting location close to the pump and
heater. A spare fuel sender gauge plate provides an
ideal mounting location.
• Drill the mounting holes as shown.
• Cut the fuel pick-up pipe to length.
• Mount the fuel pick-up pipe as shown
• Lower the fuel pick-up pipe (with reinforcing washer) into
the tank using the slot created by the two 0.6cm (1/4”) holes.
• Lift the assembly into position through the 2.5cm (1”) hole.
• Assemble the rubber washer, metal cup washer and nut.
Note: Proper mounting angle of the pump is necessary to
allow any air or vapor in the fuel lines to pass through
the pump rather than cause a blockage.
If the pump needs to be mounted externally follow these guide-
lines:
• Choose a protected mounting location close to the fuel pick-
up pipe and heater.
• Using the bracket and rubber mount provided, install pump as
shown.
