START THE PUMP
Water should be produced in 10 minutes or less, time depends on depth to water (not more than 20’ (6 m)) and length of
horizontal run (10’ (3 m) of horizontal suction pipe=1’ (30.5 cm) of vertical lift due to friction losses in pipe). If no water is
produced within 10 minutes, stop pump, release all pressure, remove priming plug, refill and try again.
WARNING: NEVER run pump against closed discharge. To do so can boil water inside pump, causing
hazardous pressure in unit, risk of explosion and possibly scalding persons handling pump (Fig.6). Replace
priming plug with pressure gauge to monitor pressure so that it is not allowed to exceed maximum pumping
pressures according to performance chart.
To prevent explosion be sure discharge (valve, pistol grip hose nozzle, etc.) is open whenever pump is running.
Monitor pump body and piping temperature. Motor will warm up; this is normal. If pump body or piping begin to feel warm
to touch, shout off pump and allow system to cool. Release all pressure in system and refill pump and piping with cold
water.
