Add liquid to the pump casing when:
1. The pump is being put into service for the first time.

Install the pump and piping as describe in INSTALLATION . Make sure that the piping
connections are tight, and that the pump is securely mounted. Check that the pump is
properly lubricated (see
LUBRICATION in MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR ).
This pump is self-priming, but the pump should never be operated unless there is liquid
in the pump casing.
8. PRIMING
This pump is designed to handle mild industrial corrosives, mud or
slurries containing large entrained solids. Do not attempt to pump
volatile; corrosive, or flammable liquids which may damage the
pump or endanger personnel as a result of pump failure.
WARNING!
Pump speed and operating conditions must be within the
performance range shown on page 20 - figure 9.
CAUTION!
Never operate this pump unless there is liquid in the pump casing.
The pump will not prime when dry. Extend operation of a dry pump
will destroy the seal assembly.
CAUTION!
After filling the pump casing, reinstall and tighten the fill plug. Do not
attempt to operate the pump unless all connecting piping is securely
installed. Otherwise, liquid in the pump forced out under pressure
could cause injury to personnel.
WARNING!
To fill the pump, remove the pump casing fill cover or fill plug in the top of the casing,
and add clean liquid until the casing is filled. Replace the fill cover or fill plug before
operating the pump.
