Page 7: Before Use
BEFORE USE PUMP PLACEMENT For best pump performance, place the pump near the water level, and use hoses that are no longer than necessary. That will enable the pump to produce the greatest output with the least self-priming time. As head (pumping height) increases, pump output decreases. The length, type, and size of the suction and discharge hoses can also significantly affect pump output. - Page 8 • Fill until the oil touches the threads in the oil fill tube. • Oil capacity (See page 20). • We recommend that you use CLARKE SAE10W30 oil (Part No: 3050845) in this pump available from your CLARKE dealer. 5.
