GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
Examine unit for any visible shipping damage. Immediately
report any damage to the carrier. Check all accessory parts
carefully against the invoice. All pipe used should be clean
and free from rust and scale. Use pipe joint compound on
all joints to avoid leaks.
INSTALLATION & OPERATION
Pump Location:
Locate the pump as near the well or water
source as possible, using short, direct suction pipe. Keep
the static suction lift (vertical distance between the center
line of the pump and water level) to a minimum. Mount the
pump on a solid, level foundation, which provides a rigid
and vibration free support. It should be located where the
unit is readily accessible for service and maintenance. The
pump should be protected against flooding and excessive
moisture.
Piping:
Both suction and discharge piping should be
independently supported at a point near the pump to avoid
strains being placed on the pump. Start all piping at pump to
avoid strains left by a gap at last connection. It is advisable
to increase the size of both suction and discharge piping at
the pump if any appreciable run of pipe is required. Never
use a smaller suction pipe than the suction connection on
the pump.
