WARNING: Before installing tubing into the Pump Head remove
power or shut off the drive. Fingers or loose clothing could be
caught in the rollers.
1. Place the Power On/Direction Switch, Figure 1-2, in the center (Off)
position.
2. Open the Door, Figure 1-2, by grasping the finger recesses on either

4. After cutting the desired length of tubing, place the tube onto the rotor
allowing the tube to naturally curve around the rotor. Insert one side of
the tubing into tube retainer by moving the retainer toward the center of
the pump and placing tubing in the v-notch of the retainer. Release the
retainer so that the tubing is secured in place. Repeat for the other Tubing
Retainer. The tubing should be stretched slightly around the rollers so that
there is no excess tubing between the Rollers and Retainers, Figure 2-1.
