Using Foam
The Bambi MAX is designed to be effective with foam. All materials used in the manufacture of the Bambi
MAX are resistant to the chemical action of foam.
Caution
Do not run the pump if it is submerged to a depth of 10 ft. (3 m) or more. Do not submerge the
bucket to a depth of more than 20 ft. (6.1 m) when performing conventional dip fills (pump off).
Important Note
The filter screens are designed to filter out objects large enough to damage the pump impellers and
to prevent weeds and debris from clogging the pump intakes. If operating the pumps in extremely
dirty or swampy water sources, more frequent inspections of the pump impellers and filter screens
may be required to maintain optimal function.
Important Note
The pumps can be run dry without damage. However, maximum life can be obtained from the
pumps if the run time is limited only to filling the bucket.
Caution
After using foam or retardants, cycle through several dumps with water only or hose down with
fresh water. This will prolong the bucket life.
