DISCHARGE HOSE INSTALLATION
Use a commercially available hose
And hose connector, and clamp.
It is best to use a short, large-diameter
hose. That will reduce fluid friction and
improve output.
Tighten the hose clamp securely to
Prevent the discharge hose from
disconnecting under high pressure.
PRIMING THE PUMP
Remove priming plug and fill pump and suction pipe with water. Pump is
equipped with suction flap valve and should be capable of drawing air out of
normal size suction pipes or hoses. Replace plug and start the pump. If the
pump pumps a little and stops, turn the pump off, check suction pipe for
possible leaks and repeat priming procedure until the pump operates
satisfactorily.
Warning:
Operating the pump dry will damage the pump seal. If the pump
has been operated dry, stop the engine immediately, and allow the pump to
cool before priming.
