OPERATION
Flexible impeller pumps must NOT be run dry, as the
pumped liquid is the lubricant for the impeller. Observe
the outlet and shut off pump as soon as liquid stops
flowing. An automatic level switch is convenient to
control the pump.
The pump cannot run against a closed outlet such as
encountered when using a garden hose type shut-off
nozzle.
Pressure for normal operation should not exceed 20 feet
of head (8.7 psi).
Temperature of pumped liquid may be in the range of
45° - 180°F (7° - 82°C).
WARNING

Motor runs hot—about 180° is a normal
operation. Do not touch during

or immediately after operation.
