Typical Water Supply Hookup:
. Select a Garden hose measuring at least 3/4" ID and no longer than
50 feet. Connect one end of the MAKE-UP water supply garden hose
to the MAKE-UP water inlet of the unit. Connect the other end of the
hose to your pressurized water supply.
Note: When connecting the make-up water inlet to the water supply mains,
local regulations of your water company must be observed. In some areas,
the unit must not be connected directly to the public drinking water supply.
This is to ensure that there is no feedback into the water supply. (Direct
connection is permitted if a back flow preventer is installed.)
2. Connect the make-up water hose from unit to tank. (Optional CX-0072
tank) Twenty five feet of 3/4" low pressure hose #15-0033 is supplied
with the unit. The makeup water supply alone will not supply the
water requirements of the unit.
Note: The diaphram pump will not suffer if run dry due to any empty tank.
However a starved suction due to a clogged strainer or closed valve in the
pump inlet line will cause premature failure of the pump diaphrams.
3. Connect a -/2 inch non collapsable inlet hose from the tank to the
pump inlet. Hose and connectors are not supplied with unit. 1-1/2"
Non collapsable hose #15-0212 and 1-1/2" cam and groove connector
#55-0053 (two required) can be purchased separately. Twenty five
feet of hose with connectors is supplied with CX-0072. Typical
installation includes a shut off ball valve (suction valve) and a large area
filter with 10-20 mesh screen (included with CX-0072). Never use a fine
filter screen with a diaphram pump.
4. Connect bypass outlet hose from pump to tank. Twenty five feet of
3/4" low pressure hose #15-0033 (50 ft total) is supplied with the unit.
5. Quick-connect the high pressure discharge hose to the water outlet of
the unit. Connect the other end of the discharge hose to the gun.
6. A sump pump from a pit or recycle system is typically routed to the
tank to provide enough water to keep the tank from running out. (Not
Provided)
7. An overflow hose from the top of the tank is typically routed back to
the pit.
