b)
priming the pump: Remove the priming plug and fill the
casing with the same liquid that you will be pumping and

start-up: In a 'flooded suction' situation, the pump will
discharge the liquid almost immediately. If the suction line is
above the liquid level being pumped, it will take a few minutes
to lift the water to the casing and then to discharge it. If the
suction line is quite long, the pump may overheat before
the liquid in the suction line reaches the pump. In this case,
turn the pump off and drain the casing. Wait a few minutes
for the seal in the pump casing to cool down.Then replace
the drain plug and refill the casing with the same liquid that
will be pumped. Replace the priming plug and restart the
pump.
warning
If the overheated casing is filled while hot, damage to the seal
will occur.

and discharge lines are free of liquid.
