Important to note
The 52000 diesel refueling pump kits have a duty cycle of 30 minutes. If you run the pumps for longer than 30 minutes, the motor will burn out. Please note that running the pump for 30 minutes or more (which enables the maximum transfer of 1500 litres of
diesel fuel) WILL AUTOMATICALLY VOID THE MANUFACTURER’S WARRANTY.
DO NOT use this pump for unleaded or leaded petrol, kerosene, aviation fuel or any other fuel other than diesel as this pump is not flame proof and using such fuels could cause an explosion.
The pumps have a warranty of 12 months on materials and workmanship.
