Operating Tips for Maximum Performance
Operation
Minimize friction by using the 1.
correct 1.0" ID suction and
discharge hoses specied, with a
minimum of connections. Keep all
hose runs as short as possible.
Keep the suction head (vertical 2.
lift) as short as possible. Do not
exceed the pump’s maximum
suction head of 26 feet.
Avoid air leaks.3.
All suction-side connections a.
must be tightly secured.
Make sure the ller cap and b.
drain plug on the pump housing
are tight and free from leakage.
Protect the discharge hose from 3.
crushing-type damage, especially
from motor vehicles.
Abrasive debris can damage the 4.
pump impeller and seals, and
should be avoided.
To minimize clogging the strainer 5.
when pumping near mud or debris,
place the strainer in a bucket or on
a bed of stones.
CAUTION!
Sudden pressure increases (such as
from vehicles driving on the discharge
hose) can split the discharge hose and
may also damage the pump body.
The higher the lift, the less the
discharge quantity.
