line is above the water level being pumped, it will take a few
minutes to lift the water to the casing and then to discharge it. if
the suction line is quite long, the pump may overheat before the
water in the suction line reaches the pump. in this case, turn the
pump off and drain the casing. Wait a few minutes for the seal
in the pump casing to cool down. caution: if the overheated
casing is filled while hot, damage to the seal will occur. Replace
the drain plug and refill the casing with water. Replace the priming
plug and restart the pump.
