Pump Location

Place the pump in a well ventilated area. DO NOT place
the pump near vents or intakes where exhaust fumes
could be drawn into occupied or confined spaces.
Carefully consider wind and air currents when positioning
the pump.
This pump must have at least 5 ft. (1.5 m) of clearance
from combustible material. Leave at least 3 ft. (91.4 cm)
of clearance on all sides of the pump to allow for
adequate cooling, maintenance and servicing. Place the
pump on a level surface free from any obstructions or
potential hazards. The pump should be placed close to
the water level to ensure maximum pump performance.
Pump output will be affected by the type, length, and
size of the suction and discharge hoses.
TOTAL HEAD
SUCTION HEAD
The pumping height, also known as the total head, is the
distance from the water level to the point of discharge.
As this distance increases, pump output decreases. The
discharge capacity is greater than the suction capacity.
Therefore, it is important that the suction head is less
than the discharge head.
The time required to draw water from the source to
the pump (self-priming time) can be decreased by
minimizing the suction head.

Connecting a Hose Kit

NOTE
Both the intake and discharge ports are 3 in.
(7.6 cm) NPT. Please insure the connectors to the
suction and discharge hose are 3 in. (7.6 cm) NPT
threaded.
2 qty.
1 qty.
Use 74-79 mm ID clamp for blue discharge hose.
1. Attach and thread the connector to the threaded
fitting (top of pump). Install hose clamp over the
blue hose.
DISCHARGE HEAD
2. Slide the blue discharge hose over the discharge
fitting (top of pump) and secure with the hose clamp
(74-79 mm ID) with wrench.
Use 80-85 mm ID clamp for screen.
1. Install hose clamp over the green suction hose. Slide
the green suction hose over the screen and secure
the hose clamp (80-85 mm ID) with wrench.
For green suction hose connection
80-85 mm ID clamp to pump inlet port (center of
pump and intake screen).
74-79 mm ID clamp For blue discharge hose.
