Priming with an In-line Check Valve

OPERATION
Risk of damage to pump or other equipment.
• Pumping sand or other abrasives can damage the pump and void the warranty.
• If pump is run dry, it may damage pump and void the warranty.
Priming with an In-line Check Valve
1. Open the discharge valve on the service line and nearby tap to monitor the water flow.
2. Remove the priming plug with a wrench.
3. Pour approximately 1 quart (1 liter) of clean water for every 3 ft (1 m) of suction line through the
priming plug opening until water flows out of the priming hole.
4. Reinstall the priming plug. Hand tighten.
5. Start the pump.
• If a tap is visible, you may see a short discharge of water for about 5 to 10 seconds.
6. Run the pump for 2 minutes. Shut off.
7. Repeat steps 2 - 6 for every 5 ft (1.5 m) of suction line until the water is pumped continuously.
• Priming will be repeated about 2 - 6 times.
• If the pump does not draw water within 8 tries, shut it off and check the suction line for leaks.
8. Firmly tighten the priming plug with a wrench.

Priming with a Foot Valve

1. Open the discharge valve on the service line and nearby tap to monitor the water flow.
2. Remove the priming plug with a wrench.
3. Pour approximately 1 quart (1 liter) of clean water for every 3 ft (1 m) of suction line through the
priming plug opening until water flows out of the priming hole.
NOTE: If the suction line does not fill, follow the directions for an in-line check valve.
4. Reinstall the priming plug. Hand tighten.
5. Start the pump.
• If the pump is primed correctly, it should start pumping water immediately.
• If water does not continuously pump within 2 minutes, repeat steps 2 - 5.
• If a second priming does not give a continuous flow, stop the pump and check the suction line
for leaks.
