Piping
Both the suction and discharge ports are tapped for 1" NPT threads (except 61041's suction is 1 1/4). If using hoses, use a
hose adapter. Do not use a hose on the suction if pumping from lakes, streams or ponds. The hose will collapse and cause
pump failure. Install a strainer with the foot valve on the end of the suction line. Inspect and clean the strainer frequently.
NOTICE: An air leak in the suction pipe may draw air in although no water leaks out. Make sure there are no air leaks or air
pockets in the suction pipe.
Pumping From Lakes, Streams, and Ponds
Locate the pump as near as possible (vertically) to the water source, to keep the suction lift (distance from the water to the
pump) as low as possible. Place the pump on level support. Protect against excess moisture and flooding.
Long pipe runs and many fittings increase friction and reduce flow. Use the smallest possible number of fittings and the
shortest possible run for piping.
Support the weight of the pipe.
Be sure the water is clear of debris which can clog the pump, such as sand, dirt, or scale. Be sure the foot valve and the pipe
are clean and in good condition; scale or dirt in the foot valve can cause the valve to leak. Valve leakage may cause the
pump to lose its prime, which can result in pump failure.
