1
Connecting a 3/4 in. garden hose
connection
2
Connecting a 1-1/4 in. hose kit
NOTE
:
Be sure the 3/4 in. garden hose thread connector
has a rubber gasket to minimize water leaks.
WARNING
:
Secure the discharge hose before plugging in
the pump. An unsecured discharge hose may “whip”
possibly causing personal injury, and/or property damage.
NOTE:
The larger the inside diameter and the shorter the
length of hose, the less pressure that is lost (or the larger the
flow rate).
!
Attach a garden hose with a 3/4 in. garden hose thread (not
included) to the adaptor (B).
If you would prefer to use a 1-1/4 in. hose kit (not included) in
order to pump water away more quickly.
!
Securely attach the hose kit (not included) to the adaptor (B).
Operation
NOTE:
Make certain you unwind the garden hose completely. Kinks in the hose will restrict the pump, preventing it from priming, which is
the first step to pumping water. This pump has water detector sensors. As long as the water level is over 2 in., the pump will automatically
start operating.
Place the pump on the pool cover or any place that you would like to remove water. And plug the pump power plug into a 115 volt GFCI
power outlet.
WARNING:
Do not handle pump or pump motor with wet
hands or when standing on wet or damp surface, or in water.
WARNING:
Do not let plug fall in water and do not stand in
water while the pump is plugged in.
NOTE:
The pump will not start working unless water level is
over 2 in.
NOTE:
Place upright on a solid base.
