PHYSICAL INSTALLATION
Pressure Switches & Jet Nozzle
4. When pumping from a lake or stream, install a strainer.
5. Tighten all connections thoroughly to avoid air leaks, preventing complete prime.
Discharge Line
1. Install a tee with removable plug to facilitate
priming the pump and suction line.
2. Install a new, clean discharge pipe or hose
suitable for pumping pressures.
• The size should be the same as the dis-
charge thread opening, never smaller.
• Use lengths only as necessary to reach the
discharge point, increasing the pipe/hose
size only if long line lengths are required.
• Avoid using restrictive reducing fittings if
possible and using unnecessary bends in
lines.
3. Install the pump using both gate valves and
union connections to isolate the pump when
service is required.
4. Tighten all connections thoroughly.
Pressure Switches & Jet Nozzle
This pump is shipped from the factory with a standard pressure and flow Jet Nozzle installed. The pres-
sure switch is preset to accommodate the expected pressure range associated with this nozzle. All pres-
sure switches are preset at the factory for proper performance and do not usually require adjustment.
If adjustment is necessary, the switch should be adjusted according to the switch manufacturer's speci-
fications. Refer to "Jet Nozzle & Pressure Switch Adjustments" on page 7
