SUCTION HOSE INSTALLATION
Do not use a hose smaller than the pump's suction port size.
Pump performance is best when the pump is near the water level, and the hoses
are short.
Minimum hose size: 50 mm
Use a hose clamp to securely fasten the hose connector to the suction hose in
order to prevent air leakage and loss of suction. Verify that the hose connector
sealing washer is in good condition.
Install the strainer on the other end of the suction hose, and secure it with a hose
clamp. The strainer will help to prevent the pump from becoming clogged or
damaged by debris.
Securely tighten the hose connector on the pump suction port.
