STEP 6 - Fill the reservoir
Using the graduations on the reservoir, fill it with 27 gal (102 L) of water. The reservoir is
graduated in U.S. gal. Position the reservoir before filling it with water.
Do not move the
reservoir after it has been filled as this will cause damage to the reservoir. Do not fill the
reservoir with more than 27 gal (102 L) of water.
WARNING
Using more than 27 gal (102 L) of water could damage the box or cause it to collapse. Do not exceed
this volume and
do not start the pump
until you have filled the reservoir and carefully measured the
total volume of water in the system.
WARNING
When full of water, the reservoir weighs over 200 lb (91 kg). It will be damaged or destroyed if moved
when full.
STEP 7 - Position the sediment trap
Place the sediment trap on the aluminum struts in the reservoir. Be sure the sediment trap sits
directly below the standpipe.

reservoir.
