1. Attach a suitable lifting chain to the eye bolts or lift handle
(Figure 9) on the pump. Use a crane, or similar lifting
device and lower the pump into place. For applications
where there is an excessive amount of mud, grit or silt,
the use of a support platform is desirable.

2. Make sure the pump is always placed in an upright
position, not tilted (Figure 10). Never position the pump
directly on a soft, loose bottom. To attain maximum
pumping capacity and prevent excessive wear, position
the pump so it will not burrow itself into sand or clay.
