WATER PUMPS
INSTALLATION
For your convenience, a filter-less cage has been used on this model. It has a flat section on the front nose. This is to
facilitate a vertical mount is necessary.
• A basic plastic fountain kit is not recommended for
pumps that have flow over 6000L/hour. It’s better
to use commercial fountain nozzles for higher flow.
If using fountain nozzles, it is recommended that a
sponge pre-filter be used. See your local dealer for
examples.
• If used to supply water to a waterfeature, cascade,
waterfall, etc; where a pipe is needed to be used,
use the hose tails supplied in the package. For best
results, use the bigger tubing size recommended in
the table previously. Depending on the pump size,
select the hose tail required for your tubing size and
evaluate which step on the hose tail will be used. If
you are using 50mm hose and you are connecting it
to the 40mm/50mm hose tail supplied, remember to
saw off the smaller size connection (I.E.: 40mm step).
Otherwise it will create a unnecessary restriction in the
system.
• Using a suitable thread seal tape (or other sealing
compound) apply a liberal amount on the male thread
of the hose tail.
• A omni-directional ball-joint is provided for your
convenience when used under water. This is because
the diagonal side sections of the ball-joint may seep
water when in use. The fittings pack include the
necessary O’Ring washers. Select the one that will fit
the female connection of the ball-joint. Place it firmly
in the locking nut. Now screw the locking nut of the
ball-joint onto the outlet of the pump. Fasten firmly
but do not over tighten.
• Then connect the 1 1/2” threaded bush to the outlet of
the ball joint. Then connect the hose tail to the bush
and screw in firmly. To seal adequately, use thread seal
tape on this male thread.
• Now connect the tubing to the hose tail. Remember to
use S/Steel hose clamps to fasten the hose on to the
hosetail. This is to ensure that the hose does not blow
off at a later time or there become a leak at this point
in the plumbing system.
• When used in a pond environment place the pump
in desired location; ensure the pump is on a stable
surface that is free of sludge, sand and other debris.
Position the device in the pond horizontally, on a solid
base, in such a way that it is fully covered with water
and ensure that the pump is located, at a depth, in
the water, which will not allow it to suck air from the
surface. This is known as cavitation. Cavitation is a
cause of premature impellor wear.
• Direct the hose to your desired location.
• To power up, push the plug into the power supply
outlet and switch on. Use the power supply switch for
turning the unit on and off.
