Positioning The Pump
1. Place the pump close to the water that is required to be pumped (Fig. 1). Note: Ensure the pump is no further than 5m away from the water’s edge. For best
pump performance, place the pump near the water level and use hoses that are no longer than necessary.
Suction Inlet Connecting Hose or Pipe to the Suction Inlet (not included)
Note: Keep all hoses short and as straight as possible, failure to do so may decrease the pumps performance. Note: It is recommended that a filter (25) and check valve (not included) is installed at the end of the suction hose
or pipe in order to prevent long priming periods and unnecessary damage to the pump as a result of stones and solid foreign materials entering.
Note: Reinforced or ridge suction hoses are required on the suction line to prevent the pipe from collapsing due to pressure from suction.
Caution: All connections require being air tight, failure to do so can result in an air leak which can prevent the pump from priming. It is recommended that a thread sealant (not included) and/or Teflon tape (not included) is used on threads to ensure a water tight seal and prevent any leakage during assembly.
1. Assemble the hose clamp (23) and filter strainer (25) to the intake side of the
suction hose (Fig. 2).
2. Tighten the hose clamp (23) tightly, ensuring that it clamps the hose against the
filter strainer (25) (Fig. 2).
3. Insert a hose adapter (24) into one of the collars (22). Note: Ensure that an o-ring (21) is fitted into the collar (22) (Fig. 3), failure to do so
may result in an air leak.
4. Fasten the hose adapter/collar assembly to the outlet side of the suction
hose with a hose clamp (23) (Fig. 4).
5. Add thread sealant (not included) and/or Teflon tape (not included) onto the
suction inlet (8).

pump (Fig. 5). Note: Ensure the collar is tightly fastened onto the suction inlet (8); failure to do so
may result in an air leak.
Discharge Outlet Connecting Hose or Pipe to the Discharge outlet (not included)
Note: Keep all hoses short and as straight as possible, failure to do so may decrease the pumps performance. Caution: All connections must be air tight, failure to do so may result in an air leak which can prevent the pump
from priming. It is recommended that a thread sealant (not included) and/or Teflon tape (not included) is used on threads to ensure a water tight seal and prevent any leakage.
1. Insert a hose adapter (24) into one of the collars (22). Note: Ensure that an o-ring (21) is fitted into the collar (22) (Fig. 6), failure to do so
may result in an air leak.
2. Add thread sealant (not included) and/or Teflon tape (not included) on to the
discharge outlet (9).
3. Align and screw the collar onto the thread of the discharge outlet (9) port of the
pump (Fig. 7). Note: Ensure the collar is tightly fastened onto the discharge outlet (9); failure to do so
may result in an air leak.
Priming
Priming the pump prepares the motor for safe operation. Caution: Do not run the pump dry, this may result in damage to the pump.
1. Unscrew the priming cap (11) by turning anti-clockwise. Using a hose, fill the pump
by pouring water into the priming plug hole (Fig. 8).
2. Ensure that the pump and suction line are full.
3. Replace the priming cap (11) and ensure it is secure.
