Installation
Adapting Pit Box
For installation using an existing pit box, some modifications may be required. Following list
highlights the changes that may be required. These installation considerations may also apply
when replacing competitive units.
To adapt plumbing/conduit to stub-up locations, ensure the following:
• Use flexible piping in the pit box for plumbing adaptation.
• When adapting a unit to an existing pit box or one that is not specifically designed for the
unit, the rain lip may require modification or removal. If the rain lip is removed, then the
entire base of the dispenser must be sealed to the island. Study foundation layouts and the
existing pit box to determine if modifications are required, before mounting the unit on the
island.
• When adapting for an Atlas model 9850KXTW1, refer to
.
• For working in this area, refer to the following warning:
Applicable for fluids other than DEF. You are working in a potentially hazardous
environment where fuels and their vapors may be present and can be ignited with sparks
from grinding and cutting tools. Ensure that sparks or open flames are not generated
when you modify a rain lip where fuel or fuel vapors may be present.
WARNING
Lifting Units
Lifting heavy equipment can be hazardous. Equipment can fall, and cause severe injury
or death. Use lifting equipment of proper capacity and factor of safety when moving or
positioning the unit. Stand clear from the pump/dispenser when lifting, lowering, or
transporting.
WARNING
Before mounting the unit to the island, ensure that the pit box and unit base are compatible.
Some pit box plates have rain lips that require modification before placing the unit on plate.
Lifting Units with Forklift
To lift units with a forklift, proceed as follows:
1
Ensure that the weight of the pump/dispenser is equally distributed on the tines to the forklift.
2
Lift and guide the unit, positioning it on to the island.
