CONNECTION AND POSITIONING
1. Screw the outlet elbow and
stepped adaptor supplied, onto
the outlet of the pump as shown.
2. Connect the outlet adaptor to
the largest diameter hose
available, as any restriction will
reduce capacity and put
unnecessary strain on the motor.
• The stepped adaptor fitting
allows for connection of 32 mm
(1¼”), 25 mm (1”), or 19 mm hoses which should be secured with a hose
clamp.
3. Ensure that the hose diameter is
as large as possible if a long run of
discharge hose is being used.
• Suitable hoses are available
from your local Clarke dealer.
POSITIONING THE PUMP
1. ALWAYS raise and lower the pump
using a rope attached to the
lifting handle.
2. Place the pump in a vertical
position resting on a firm, flat
surface in the area that you want
to drain. If there is sediment in the
operating area, the pump should
be placed vertically on house bricks, or similar but ensure they are not likely
to collapse. Never
install the pump on sand, silt, mud or ground that is likely
to collapse.
3. Keep the pump clear of sediment by standing it on a platform or brick or
suspending from a rope attached to the handle if the pump is to be used
where there may be silt or mud etc (e.g. garden ponds).
4. Ensure the pump is positioned with adequate space so that the movement
of the float switch is not restricted - recommended minimum area of 50 x
50cm.
5. Allowance must also be made for the overall width of the pump including
the outlet elbow on one side.
