3.2 Installation
Attach a chain or rope to the grip and install the pump.
This pump must not be installed on its side or operated a dry condition. Ensure that it is installed upright on a
secure base.
Install the pump at a location in the tank where there is the least turbulence.
If there is a flow of liquid inside the tank, support the piping where appropriate. Install piping so that air will not be
entrapped. If piping must be installed in such a way that air pockets are unavoidable, install an air release valve
wherever such air pockets are most likely to develop.
Do not permit end of discharge piping to be submerged, as backflow will result when the pump is shut down.
Non‐automatic pumps do not have an automatic operating system. Do not operate the pump for a long time with
the water level near the minimum operating level (L.W.L.) as shown in Fig.1, as the automatic cut‐off switch
incorporated inside the motor will be activated. To avoid dry operation, install an automatic operating system so
that this will not happen, as shown in Fig.2, and maintain a safe operating water level.
WARNING
Under no circumstances should cable be pulled while the pump is being transported or installed.
