Use the strainer (D) when pumping from a creek,
pond, or source where debris may be sucked into
the
pump. The strainer should prevent debris from
entering the inlet line (2).
Note:
To prevent re-priming during periods of frequent
stopping and restarting of the pump (C)
,
install a foot
valve (sold separately) instead of the included suction
strainer (D). The foot valve will keep the pump primed
when it is turned off.
Caution:
Even when using a foot valve
,
do not leave the
pump permanently installed.
