4.screws to fasten the pump to the mounting surface
1 electrical cut off switch
1 fuse
1 screwdriver
1 strong cutting implement for tubing (if desired)Teflon tape or sealant
Setup
1. The pump may be mounted in any position. If mounted vertically, the pump
head should be in the down position to avoid leakage into the motor casing in
the event of a malfunction.
2. Secure the feet, but do not compress them. Over tightening the securing
screws may reduce their ability to dissipate noise and vibration.
3.The inlet and outlet hoses must be 1/2" (13 mm) ID reinforced hoses. The
diameter of branch and individual supply lines from the outlet should be no
smaller than 3/8"(10 mm).
4. Plumb the system using high pressure (2 x pump rating), braided, flexible
tubing to minimize vibration/noise.
5.Do not apply inlet pressure in excess of 30psi. In general, try to avoid any
inlet pressure completely.
6.Avoid any kinks or fittings which could cause excessive restrictions.
7.Strainer should be attached to the inlet side.
8.The fittings must be secured to avoid leakage
9.Use clamps at both ends of the hose to prevent air leaks into the water line.
10. If a check valve is installed in the plumbing, it must have a cracking
pressure of no more than 2 psi.
11. If applying a sealer or plumbing tape, be careful not to over tighten, as they
may be sucked into.
12. This pump should be wired on its own dedicated circuit. Connect the
positive lead (red) to the positive terminal of your battery and the negative
wire(black) to the negative terminal of your battery.
13. In an easily accessible location, install a switch to control electricity to the
pump. Turn the pump off when not used for extended periods or when the tank
is empty.
14.The electrical circuit should be protected with an over-current protection
