6. Pump — The model QP205SLT/QPT205SLT is a
2-inch high pressure centrifugal pump and should
only be used in clear water applications (agricultural,
industrial, residential) as they have a limited soild
handling capability of only 10% by volume.
7. Drain Plug — Remove this plug to drain water from
the pump.
8. Suction Hose — Connect a flexible rubber hose to
the suction port on the pump. Make sure that the hose
lays flat and is not kinked. Use only recommended type
suction hose. Contact Multiquip Parts Department for
ordering information.
9. Strainer — Always attach a strainer to bottom side of

from entering the pump. Strainer should be positioned
so that it will remain completely under water. Running
the pump with the strainer above water for long periods
can damage pump.
