SAFETY

1. Introduction

This manual contains all the information needed for the correct installation, use and maintenance of your new Finish

Thompson motor. It should be read and understood by all the personnel involved in installation, operating and servic­ing of the pump before it is started.

2. Operator Qualification and Training

The personnel in charge of the installation, operation and maintenance of the pump unit we produce must be quali-

fied and able to perform the operations described in this manual. Finish Thompson Inc. shall not be held responsible
for the training level of personnel and for the fact that they are not fully aware of the contents of this manual.

3. Safety Instructions

FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY:

BEFORE UNDERTAKING ANY SERVICE OPERATION ON YOUR MOTOR OR PUMP, PLEASE MAKE SURE TO WEAR THE

PROPER PROTECTIVE GEAR.

GENERAL DANGER

NEVER use a plastic pump or an open, splash-proof, TEFC or non-ATEX motor when pumping or mixing flammable or

combustible material.

ALWAYS use and store the pump and motor in an upright position.

DANGER: POWER SUPPLY

NEVER perform any maintenance operation on the motor while it is running or before it has been disconnected from

the power supply. Avoid any possible hazard that might be caused by electric power.

ALWAYS check the electrical specifications on the motor data plate and make sure they correspond to the power

supply to which it will be connected.

ALWAYS place motor in the OFF position prior to connecting the power source.

NEVER immerse the motor in liquid.

4. Noise Level

MV Motors in normal operating conditions produce a sound level equal or less than 79 dBA at a distance of three feet

(~ one meter).

5. Modifications and Spare Parts

Any changes concerning the service of the motor as originally purchased, can be executed only after written approval

from Finish Thompson Inc. It is recommended to use only genuine Finish Thompson Inc. spare parts and approved
accessories. The use of non original spare parts or non approved accessories will void warranty and removes any
responsibility on our behalf for any damage caused to people or things.

INSTALLATION

1. Unpack motor from carton. Check for shipping damage. If damage is detected, save the packaging and notify the
carrier immediately.

2. Loosen the nut on the motor housing by turning it counterclockwise (as viewed from the bottom of the motor). Note
that the nut remains on the motor even when loosened. See figure 1.

3. Looking into the bottom/drive-end of the motor, align the coupling half with the coupling half orientation of the pump.
Aligning the coupling half with two of the slots in the motor adapter sleeve is recommended to provide a reference
point. See figures 2 & 3.

4. Make sure that the rubber coupling insert (provided with the pump) is properly installed in the pump coupling half.

5. With the motor coupling half properly aligned, firmly push the motor down over the pump head until fully engaged.
See figure 3.

6. The motor isn’t fully coupled unless the bottom of the motor and the top of the pump are completely flush. See
figure 4.

Warning: Do not position the motor handle and cord over and in front of the pump discharge. Position it in line with

the discharge or at 90° to the discharge.

7. Manually tighten the nut by turning it clockwise until secure. See figure 5.

Note: Do not use hand tools to tighten the nut as this may cause damage to the motor casing.

OPERATION

The MV Series motors incorporate an ON/OFF switch as well as a Variable Speed Control. When operating the MV Se­ries for the first time it is recommended to turn down the speed control (Counter Clockwise) to the lowest setting. Make
sure the discharge hose is properly secured. Turn on the motor with the ON/OFF switch & adjust the speed control to the
desired flow rate. Both of these operations can be done with the same hand being used to support the pump utilizing the
thumb. Keep in mind that flow rates will vary depending upon fluid viscosity & specific gravity. It may be necessary to
operate the pump at a lower speed for high viscosity fluids. Contact factory for troubleshooting tips.
