STEP 6
Install a Flojet strainer in an accessible location (for
inspection and cleaning) between the tank and pump
inlet. This strainer or equivalent is required for pump
warranty to be valid.
STEP 1
Use 14 gauge stranded wire to 20’, 12 gauge to 50’, from
power source.
STEP 2
Use a 10-15 amp rated on-off switch on the (+) positive
(red) motor lead.
STEP 3
Install a 10 amp fuse protection on the positive lead.
Note: To help reduce noise and vibration of the
pump through the system use flexible lines on the
inlet and outlet of the pump as shown above. Be
sure to use lines rated to not collapse under pump
vacuum.
