Below is a list of major warnings and cautions that are given in this manual. Please take a moment to review them now for your future safety. 1. Your meter is designed for use only with thin viscosity petroleum fuels such as diesel fuel, kerosene and gasoline (up to 15% alcohol blends such as E15, M15). 2. Do not use this equipment for dispensing any fluids other than those for which it was designed. 3. Any components added to your meter such as hose, nozzle or pump must be statically-grounded and approved for use with petroleum fuels. 4. Observe precautions against fire or explosion when dispensing fuel. 5. Avoid prolonged skin contact with petroleum fuels. INTRODUCTION GPI mechanical fuel meters are designed for the field measurement of thin viscosity petroleum fuels only and are intended for use with pump or gravity feed systems in the 4 to 20 GPM or 15 to 75 LPM flow range. Using mechanical gears, these meters translate flow data from a nutating disc into calibrated units that are indicated on the face of the meter. BEFORE INSTALLATION Upon receipt of your meter, examine it to make sure there are no visible signs of damage. If damage is evident, please contact your GPI distributor. If the meter is located in a rigid piping system where the fluid is trapped (for example, by gravity, valves or nozzles) thermal expansion of the fluid can create 1

pressure spikes that can damage a meter. Install a thermal relief valve or otherwise allow for thermal expansion of the fluid. WARNING Any components such as hose, nozzle, or pump added to your meter must be statically grounded and approved for use with petroleum fuels. Your system must be mounted to a vented tank. (Figure 1) If the tank is unvented, your GPI distributor can supply a pressure cap. 2. Remove the two counter cover screws and the four screws holding the counter assembly against the housing. 3. Rotate the counter assembly to the desired position. (Figure 2) Position the O-ring and align the nutator disc pin with the back of the assembly. Secure the counter assembly to the housing by alternately tightening screws. Figure 2 Figure 1 4. Replace the counter cover and screws. 5. Position the reset knob and push to install. INSTALLATION 1. Remove protective plugs from meter inlet and outlet ports. 2. Wrap threaded male connections with thread tape or use a pipe sealant compound compatible with petroleum fuels. 3. Install the meter on the pump. The meter s outlet port is marked with a flow arrow. 4. Install other system components on the meter and tighten snugly. To accommodate various filter positions, the counter assembly of the FM-100 Series meter may be rotated as follows: 1. Pull to remove the reset knob on the side of the meter. Meter Accuracy The meter has been accurately calibrated at the factory for use with diesel fuel. Due to differences in viscosities and flowrates, calibration may need to be adjusted if other fuels are to be dispensed. Refer to the Repair Section for calibration instructions. DAILY OPERATIONS 1. Before use, visually check the meter to ensure it is securely fitted to other system components and there is no leakage at connections. If leakage is present, refer to the Troubleshooting Section. 2

2. Follow safety precautions, wiping any spilled fuel from the exterior of the meter and other system components. Dispense Fuel WARNING This meter is designed for use only with thin viscosity petroleum fuels such as diesel fuel, kerosene and gasoline (up to 15% alcohol blends such as E15, M15). Do not use this equipment for dispensing any fluids other than those for which it was designed. To do so may damage the meter and will void the warranty. WARNING Observe precautions against fire or explosion when dispensing fuel. Do not operate the meter in the presence of any source of ignition including running or hot engines, lighted cigarettes, or gas or electric heaters. WARNING Avoid prolonged skin contact with petroleum fuels. Use protective goggles, gloves, and aprons in case of accidental splashing or spillage. Change saturated clothing and wash skin contact areas promptly with soap and water. 1. The large meter display represents the Batch Total for each fuel delivery. Before dispensing fuel, reset the Batch Total to zero by turning the reset knob on the side of the meter counterclockwise. (Figure 3) NOTE: The small display represents the Cumulative Total of all pump deliveries and cannot be reset. 2. To enhance meter accuracy, dispense fuel using a quick-open and quick-close method. Avoid choking flow as the tank becomes full. MAINTENANCE Your mechanical fuel meter is designed for minimum maintenance. Examine the meter and other system components regularly for leakage. Keep the system exterior clean to help identify leaks. The FM-100 Series has an internal fuel filter. The FM-200 Series is equipped with an internal strainer. Both should be checked annually or whenever low flow is noticed. The meter may also require recalibration if actual fuel delivery differs noticeably from meter readings. Refer to the Repair Section for filter and strainer access and calibration information. Replace Fuel Filter 1. Remove the four screws holding the filter can to the housing. Remove the can. 2. Unscrew the filter by turning counterclockwise. Dispose of the old filter properly. Replace with a new filter. (Figure 4) Figure 4 Figure 3 3

3. Wipe clean the filter can seal, groove and housing. Coat the seal with oil or light grease and install in the filter can groove. 4. Place the filter can over the installed filter. Hold in position and alternately tighten the four screws until the can is firm against the housing. Clean Strainer 1. Remove the four retaining screws on the strainer coverplate. Remove the coverplate and strainer. (Figure 5) Figure 5 2. Using a fine brush, clean the strainer and reposition in the housing. 3. Wipe clean the strainer coverplate O-ring, groove, and the housing. Coat the O-ring with oil or light grease and install in the coverplate groove. (Figure 6) Figure 6 CALIBRATION The meter is accurately calibrated at the factory for use with diesel fuel. Due to differences in viscosity and flowrates, the meter may require recalibration to measure other fuels or to adjust for inaccuracies. 1. Purge air from the meter and fuel system by dispensing fuel into a container until a full flow occurs. Close the nozzle. 2. Reset the meter counter to zero by turning the reset knob counterclockwise. 3. Fill a graduated calibration container to a specified quantity. For the greatest accuracy, be sure the container is placed on a level surface and a consistent flowrate is used. When topping off the calibration container, use a quick-open and quick-close method until the mark is reached. 4. Compare the meter display to the quantity in the container. If the display does not register the quantity on the container, adjust the meter by performing the following: a. Gain access to the recessed calibration screw by turning the calibration screw cover and seal counterclockwise. Remove the cover and seal. (Figure 7) Figure 7 4. Hold the coverplate in position and replace the four screws by alternately tightening screws until the coverplate is firm against the meter housing. 4

b. If the meter registered less than the quantity in the container, turn the calibration screw clockwise. If the meter display read more than the amount in the container, turn the screw counterclockwise. 5. Empty the calibration container and repeat steps 2 to 4 until the meter registers the quantity in the container. 6. Install the calibration screw cover and seal. REPAIR Replace Counter Assembly or Nutator Kit 1. Pull out on the reset knob to remove. 2. Remove the two screws connecting the counter cover to the counter assembly. Remove the counter cover. 3.
