Priming The Pump - Pentair STA-RITE INTELLIFLO VSD 2 Guía Rápida Para Empezar

Priming the Pump

NOTICE: If you replace the o-ring with a non-lubricated o-ring, you may need to apply a silicone based lubricant.
• Clean and inspect o-ring; reinstall on trap cover.
• Replace trap cover on trap; turn clockwise to tighten cover.
NOTICE: Tighten the pump lid by hand only (no wrenches).
Priming time will depend on vertical length of suction lift and horizontal length of suction piping. If pump does
not prime, be sure that all valves are open, suction pipe end is under water, pump suction is below water level,
and that there are no leaks in suction pipe.
