OPERA
TION:
1.
The
QEP 60095
water pump must be operated in clean water and can be placed in
any position so long as the intake is below the water level.
2. The weight of the pump must be adequately supported and resting inside the water
tray.
3. The discharge is designed for use with 1/2" ID flexible tubing. An adapter that fits
inside of the discharge is included to allow the use of 3/8" ID flexible tubing.
4. The flow rate on the
QEP 60095
water pump can be adjusted by r
otating the flow
adjuster located on the front of the pump. Rotate the adjuster counterclockwise to
increase flow and clockwise to decrease flow.
5. If the pump is going to be idle for a period of time, follow the cleaning instructions.
Do not allow the pump to freeze, which may cause cracking or distortion and
destroy the pump.
6. A clogged or dirty intake screen or filter will greatly reduce performance. If the
pump is used on a dirty surface, raise it slightly to reduce the amount of debris
contacting the intake.
7. Do not let the pump run when not submerged in water. Doing so may damage the
pump. Always submerge the pump before plugging it into the electrical outlet.
Occasionally, due to air in the pump and tube, water will not pump. To initiate
water flow, pull the pump out of the water and insert the plug into the electrical
outlet several times.
