Positioning the Hose or Pipe
Position the input hose or pipe so that it rises from the water drawing source to the pump. Avoid positioning the
input hose or pipe higher than the pump, as this would delay the escape of air bubbles from the input hose or pipe
and impede the priming process (see section 'starting the pump' for description on priming the pump) (Fig. 4-5).
