b) By Separate Hand, or Manually Controlled, Priming Pump: Close discharge gate valve (keep
air vent valves dosed) and open valve in line to priming pump. Exhaust air from pump and suc-
tion piping until water flows from priming pump. With priming pump running, close valve in pri-
ming line, start pump and open discharge gate valve. An alternate method is to reverse con-
nections on priming pump and extending priming pump suction to source of liquid supply. The
pump may be primed by pumping liquid into casing until liquid comes out of the open air vent
valves.
