To connect an external feed tank, follow the steps below:
1. Customer will supply the following:
a. 200 gallon tank or larger water feed tank.
b. ¾" connection hose no longer than 6 ft.
c. ¾" fittings. Do not use 90° elbow fittings.
2. Make sure that the bottom of the water feed tank
is level or higher than the pump inlet.
3. Connect one end of the ¾" hose to the water
tank.
4. Connect the other end of the ¾" hose to the
pump. Make sure the connection hose will not
kink.
5. Reroute 1/4" easy start hose if equipped so it
discharges back to the feed tank. This will aid in
pump priming upon initial start-up. Remove ¼"
hose barb from inlet and replace with 1/4" NPT
plug (to be supplied by customer).

containing muriatic acid, will cause pump damage
if introduced upstream through the pump's water
inlet and will void warranty.
