Operation
PG1
Continued from the previous page.
Submerge the
hose
4. Submerge the suction hose.
■
Always keep the strainer suspended in the liquid being pumped.
■
Do not run the pump in less than 100 mm (4.0 in.) of water. At this level and
lower, water begins to form a funnel down to the bottom of the suction line
and strainer, allowing the pump to draw in air. The mixture of air and water
leads to a condition known as cavitation, which will quickly destroy the
impeller and the water chamber inside the pump housing.

discharge
hose
Connect the discharge hose

Note: Lay the discharge hose as straight as possible. Avoid sharp bends and

a. Open the priming plug
(f)
.
b. With the suction hose submerged, fill the pump housing full of water.
NOTICE:
Do not operate the machine without priming the pump. Extended dry
operation will damage the mechanical seal.
