Operation & Parts Manual
1. Screw the 2 male quick clamp adapters onto the pump. Threads must be sealed with pipe sealer.
2. Determine the length of the inlet and discharge hose and cut them from the single length supplied with the kit. Use a hack
saw to cut through the hose. If the primary use is for on board a boat, place the pump and the board where you want to do
the pumping. Stretch the hose from the bottom of the boat, across the pump to the place you want the discharge to end up.
Cut the hose where it crosses the pump.
3. Install the two female hose couplings into one end of each hose section. Secure them with the hose clamps.
4. Clamp the female couplings to the male adapters.
5. Check the bolts holding the pump to the carrying board.
6. Test the installation with clean water and check for leaks.
Static Head:
Suction-15 ft / 4.57m Discharge-15 ft / 4.57m
Dry Suction Lift:
12ft / 3.65m
Volume:
1 Gallon Per Stroke at 5 ft Suction Lift and 0 Discharge
Total Volume depends on the pumping speed and the conditions when punping.
A Cycle is one complete raising and lowering of the diaphragm. Static Head is
determined by the vertical height, length and size of the plumbing and the viscosity
of the liquid. For most manual pump applications just measure the vertical
distance between the liquid being pumped and the inlet of the pump. If it is within
15ft. then you should be able to pump the liquid. See Installation Guidelines for
other considerations.
Operation
Set Up
Inlet Valve Assembly:opens
into the pump
Discharge Valve Assembly:
closes and seals on the valve
seat that is part of the pump
base under the discharge
chamber.
Discharge Stroke
Discharge Valve Assembly:
opens away from the pump
Inlet Valve Assembly:closes
and seals on the valve seat
that is part of the inlet
chamber.
Suction Stroke
Fig. 4
1. Stand on the open end of the carrying board. Use your body weight to stabilize the
pump and board. Grip the handle with one or both hands and pull the handle back
to raise the diaphragm for the suction stroke. Push forward from the same position
for the discharge stroke.
2. The raising of the diaphragm creates a vacuum that pulls the discharge valve
assembly closed.
3. Atmospheric pressure pushes liquid and /or air up the inlet hose to fill the vacuum.
4. Pushing forward on the handle compresses the air and liquid under the diaphragm.
5. The pressure closes the inlet valve assembly preventing the liquid trapped in the inlet
hose from dropping back to atmosphere.
6. The air and liquid under the pressure of the diaphragm are forced out through the discharge.
