DISCHARGE HOSE INSTALLATION
Use a commercially available hose and hose
connector, and clamp provided with the pump.
It is best to use a short, large-diameter hose,
because that will reduce fluid friction and improve
pump output. A long or small-diameter hose will
increase fluid friction and reduce pump output.
Tighten the hose clamp securely to prevent the
discharge hose from disconnecting under pressure.
PRIMING THE PUMP
Before starting the engine, remove the filler cap from
the pump chamber, and completely fill the pump
chamber with water. Reinstall the filler cap, and
tighten it securely.
Operating the pump dry will destroy the pump seal. If the pump has
been operated dry, stop the engine immediately, and allow the pump
to cool before priming.
