diameter flexible hose. If you are using one of the three larger sizes, the smaller
sections of the hosetails must be cut off to ensure sufficient water flow and to
prevent possible damage to the pump. We recommend that you use the largest
diameter hose available. As it is easier to cut the hosetails while they are attached to
the unit, attach them using the female threaded lock nuts and gaskets provided. Ensure
that the gaskets are seated correctly between the flat face of the hosetails and the flat
face of the inlet/outlet ports. Using a hacksaw, carefully cut off the excess hosetail,
ensuring that the sections are cut off at the second ridge and that the cut follows the
line of the ridge.
Once trimmed, hand tighten the lock nuts to secure the hosetails to the inlet/outlet ports.
Do not use jointing compound or PTFE tape. Secure the hosepipe to the hosetail
with a stainless steel hose clip.
The hosetails supplied are made from a translucent material which will glow when the
unit is operating correctly. (NB. glow only visible in low levels of light.)
