INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Installation of the Giant Industries, Inc., pump is not a
complicated procedure, but there are some basic steps
common to all pumps. The following information is to be
considered as a general outline for installation. If you have
unique requirements, please contact Giant Industries, Inc. or
your local distributor for assistance.
1. The pump should be installed flat on a base to a maximum of
a 15 degree angle of inclination to ensure optimum lubrication.
2. The inlet to the pump should be sized for the flow rate of the
pump with no unnecessary restrictions that can cause cavitation.
Teflon tape should be used to seal all joints. If pumps are to be
operated at temperatures in excess of 140
insure a positive head to the pump to prevent cavitation.
3. The discharge plumbing from the pump should be properly
sized to the flow rate to prevent line pressure loss to the work
area. It is essential to provide a safety bypass valve between the
pump and the work area to protect the pump from pressure
spikes in the event of a blockage or the use of a shut-off gun.
4. Use of a dampener is necessary to minimize pulsation at
drive elements, plumbing, connections, and other system areas.
The use of a dampener with Giant Industries, Inc. pumps is
optional, although recommended by Giant Industries, Inc. to
o
F, it is important to
further reduce system pulsation. Dampeners can also
reduce the severity of pressure spikes that occur in systems
using a shut-off gun. A dampener must be positioned
downstream from the unloader.
5. Crankshaft rotation on Giant Industries, Inc. pumps
should be made in the direction designated by the arrows
on the pump crankcase. Reverse rotation may be safely
achieved by following a few guidelines available upon
request from Giant Industries, Inc. Required horsepower
for system
6. Before beginning operation of your pumping system,
remember: Check that the crankcase and seal areas have
been properly lubricated per recommended schedules. Do
not run the pump dry for extended periods of time.
Cavitation will result in severe damage. Always remember
to check that all plumbing valves are open and that pumped
media can flow freely to the inlet of the pump.
Finally, remember that high pressure operation in a pump
system has many advantages. But, if it is used carelessly
and without regard to its potential hazard, it can cause
serious injury.
operation can be obtained from the chart on page 3.
IMPORTANT OPERATING CONDITIONS
Failure to comply with any of these conditions invalidates the warranty
1. Prior to initial operation, add oil to crankcase so that oil
level is between the two lines on the oil dipstick. DO NOT
OVERFILL. Use Giant Recommended Oil (p/n 01154),
which is equivalent to SAE 85-90W Industrial Grear Lube.
Crankcase oil should be changed after the first 50 hours of
operation, then at regular intervals of 500 hours or less
depending on operating conditions.
2. Pump operation must not exceed rated pressure, volume,
or RPM.
discharge of the system.
3. Acids, alkalines, or abrasive fluids cannot be pumped
unless approval in writing is obtained before operation
from Giant Industries, Inc.
4. Run the pump dry approximately 10 seconds to drain
the water before exposure to freezing temperatures.
A pressure relief device must be installed in the

PULLEY INFORMATION
Pulley selection and pump speed are based on a 1725
RPM motor and "B" section belts. When selecting
desired GPM, allow for a ±5% tolerance on pumps
output due to variations in pulleys, belts and motors
among manufacturers.
1. Select GPM required, then select appropriate
motor and pump pulley from the same line.
2. The desired pressure is achieved by selecting the
correct nozzle size that corresponds with the pump
GPM.

HORSEPOWER INFORMATION
Horsepower ratings shown are the power requirements for the pump. Gas engine power outputs must
be approximately twice the pump power requirements shown above.
We recommend that a 1.1 service factor be specified
when selecting an electric motor as the power source.
To compute specific pump horsepower requirements,
use the following formula:
(GPH X PSI) / 1450 = HP
