Preparing To Start The Pump 5
PIPING
Both the suction and discharge ports are tapped for 1"
BSP threads. If using hoses, use hose adapters. See
Figure 2. Do not use a hose on the suction if pumping
from lakes, streams or ponds. The hose will collapse and
cause pump failure. Install a strainer with a foot valve on
the end of the suction line. Inspect and clean the strainer
frequently (Figure 4).
NOTICE: An air leak in the suction pipe may draw air in
although no water leaks out. Make sure there are no air
leaks or air pockets in the suction pipe.
PRIMING/OPERATION
NOTICE: Do not run the pump dry. Running the pump
without water can damage the impeller and may damage
the seal, causing leaking or flooding, and will void
warranty.
All suction connections must be airtight. Make sure the
suction lift is not more than 25 feet (7.6M). Fill the pump
body through the priming port before starting the pump.
Start the pump; it should pump water in under 10 min-
utes (depending on the length of the suction hose and
the height of the pump above water).
PREPARING TO START THE PUMP
(REFER TO FIGURE 5)
Risk of burns. Never run pump dry.
Running the pump without water may cause the pump to
overheat, damaging the seal and possibly causing burns
to persons handling the pump. Fill the pump with water
before starting.
Hazardous Pressure. Never run the pump
against closed discharge. To do so can boil water inside
pump, causing hazardous pressure in unit, risk of explo-
sion and possibly scalding persons handling pump.
1. Remove the priming plug from the priming tee and
fill the pump. Fill all piping between the pump and
the well and make sure that all piping in the well is
full. If you have also installed a priming tee in the
suction piping, remove the plug from the tee and fill
the suction piping. See Figure 5.
2. Replace all fill plugs.
3. Power on! Start the pump. If you don’t have water
after 2 or 3 minutes, stop the pump and remove the
fill plugs. Refill the pump and piping. You may have
to repeat this several times in order to get all of the
trapped air out of the piping. A pump lifting water 25’
may take as long as 15 minutes to prime.
Congratulations on a successful installation.
