PRE-OPERATION CHECK

1. Connect the suction hose.
Use commercially available hose, hose connector, and hose bands.
The suction hose must be of reinforced, noncollapsible construction.
Suction hose length should not be longer than necessary, as pump
performance is best when the pump is not far above the water level.
Self-priming time is also proportional to hose length.
The strainer that is provided with the pump should be attached to the
end of the suction hose with a band, as shown.
Always install the strainer on the end of the suction hose before
pumping. The strainer will exclude debris that can cause clogging or
impeller damage.
Tighten the hose connector and bands to prevent air leakage and loss
of suction. A loosely connected suction hose will reduce pump
performance and self-priming ability.
