General
Gasboy pumps are designed and constructed to give many years of uninterrupted service. In
fact, operators report years of trouble-free operation with absolutely no service expense. Yet,
certain parts of a pump are bound to wear, and Gasboy therefore recommends a periodic
inspection, at least twice a year, for such things as fuel leaks, belt tension and condition,
lubrication and strainer cleanliness. If such a procedure is followed, any small adjustments that
are necessary can be made before expensive, annoying breakdowns occur. The result of this
sound approach is continuous, profitable service from all of your Gasboy equipment.
To reduce the risk of electrical shock when servicing a pump, turn off all power to the
pump.

Hints for Better Pump Performance
Demand Competent Service
Gasboy suggests all service be done by certified Gasboy Authorized Service Contractors
(ASCs) trained and familiar with the service of Gasboy products. Warranty service must be
done by Gasboy ASC. Gasboy has a Distributor Network which services fuel dispensing and
management systems in every section of the country.
Use Gasboy Authorized Parts
Should excessive wear, rust, or corrosion of parts cause inefficient operation, it is always best
to replace them immediately; but if you want the best results and continuity of the
Underwriters’ Label on your pump, ensure that new authorized service parts supplied by
Gasboy are used. Every part of a pump is carefully designed for a particular purpose. If it is
replaced by an incorrect or substandard substitute, pump operation can be unsatisfactory and
warranty will be voided. Always use new gaskets or seals when servicing or rebuilding
Gasboy equipment; do not re-use the old ones.
