PREPARATION
PRIMING AND STARTUP
Before beginning installation of product, make sure all parts are present. Compare parts with package contents list. If any part is missing or damaged, do not attempt to assemble the product.
Estimated Installation Time: 5 minutes
No tools required for assembly.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
NOTE: Pump depends on the liquid owing through it for
lubrication. DO NOT RUN THE PUMP DRY!
1. Mount pump solidly on a stable platform. Pump should be located so that the water source is within reach of supplied 6 ft. inlet hose.
2. Check the washer in the inlet tting of pump to make sure
it is air tight. If this leaks, pump will not operate. Install inlet hose on the inlet side of pump. Make sure all connections are tight.
Install a 5/8 in. outlet hose (not included) on the outlet
side of pump. Outlet hose should be as short as possible and no longer than 25 ft. The inlet hose must reach below the surface of the water and the outlet hose must be kept above water.

4a. For models HPP360 and 473707, plug the cord into a
3-wire, 115 volt, 60Hz grounded A/C outlet protected by a ground-fault circuit-interruptor. Pump will deliver 350 gallons per hour with an unrestricted discharge line. If the discharge line is restricted or raised, pump will pump less water.
4b. For model HPP12V, attach red battery clip to positive
terminal and black battery clip to negative terminal of a fully charged battery.
5. To reduce friction, do not coil or kink the hoses. When pumping from a well or stream, raise the inlet hose a few inches off the bottom to avoid pumping in debris which can damage the pump.

- Check to be sure pump is located so that the water
source is within reach of supplied 6 ft. inlet hose.
- Check to be sure all inlet connections are air and water-
tight and inlet hose is as short as possible.
- Check to be sure inlet hose is below the surface of the
water source.
- Check to be sure the outlet hose is less than 25 ft. in
length and is above the surface of the outlet water.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
1. Always drain pump when not in use. If pump is going to be
out of use for a month or longer, ush with fresh water and
remove face plate cover. Remove impeller, clean inside pump cavity and apply a generous coating of petroleum jelly
(not included) to the inside of the cavity and the impeller
before replacing the impeller. The pump should be checked frequently for proper operation. If anything has changed since the pump was new, it should be repaired or replaced.
CAUTION: Only qualied electricians should repair this unit.
Improper repair and/or assembly can cause electrical shock hazard.
2. How to Replace Brushes (115V pump only) NOTE: Motor brushes (not included) are normal wear items and
must be replaced periodically.
- Be sure pump is disconnected from power source.
- Unscrew brush cap located along the side of the motor. Remove brush and spring and spring cover by pulling them straight out of the brush holder.
- Install new brush and spring assembly (not included), keeping
the new brush curvature aligned the same as the previous brush.
- Replace cap.
