INSTALLING THE PUMP
The 0114-016068 may be installed using a wall, cart, or tripod mount. See the "Comet 4/12 Options" section of this part
sheet for available outfits. Overall dimensions of the pump are as shown below.
PUMP LUBRICATION NOTE
The upper pump (u-cup) seals in the Comet 4/12 Pump
fluid section are designed to resist wear even if the pump is
run dry. Supplemental lubrication is not required.
However, use of a compatible solvent or Binks Wet Sol
Plus (P/N 863009) packing lubricant can be used in the
solvent cup if required by your preventative maintenance
program.
GROUNDING THE PUMP
The grounding wire may be attached to the air motor base
or, if used, the optional high pressure filter. Locations for
the grounding screw are shown below.
Affix ground wire to the air motor base or optional high
pressure filter— see ground screw locations above. Grounding
screw and wire are included with Comet 4/12 Bare Pump.
Affix other end of ground wire to a true earth ground.
FLUSHING THE PUMP
The Comet 4/12 Bare Pump was built to exacting standards and tested with a light weight oil prior to shipment. Flush the
pump with a solvent that is compatible with the material to be sprayed to remove the oil from the pump before using the
pump for the first time.
