STEP ONE:  

The first step to assembling your Hybrid

™

 Manifold is to attach the  

(4) leveling feet to the base of the manifold. Screw each of the feet into the holes  
on the bottom of the manifold. See 

Figure 1. 

Once each of the leveling feet has been  

set to the desired height, it can be locked in place by tightening the locking nut. 

STEP TWO:  

Installing the pump. If your pump comes installed, skip to Step Three. 

 
To install your pump, determine the correct hole configuration. Align your pump mounting 
holes to the base of the manifold. See 

Figure 2

 for mounting hole configurations.  

 
Once you’ve selected the hole configuration that aligns with your pump, attach the pump using 
the (4) 5/16”  x 2½” bolts, (12) 5/16” nuts, (12) 5/16” washers and (4) 5/16” x 1.5” OD fender washers  
provided. To install, remove the pump from the base. Place a washer on each bolt and insert the 
assembled bolts through the bottom of your selected hole configuration. See 

Figure 2. 

Place  

another washer and nut onto each bolt and thread all of the way down to the base. This should 
hold the bolt in place. 

NOTE: 

We do not recommend tightening all of the way as you still need to 

adjust the bolt forwards or backwards in the slot. Please see 

Figure 4

 to see the correct configura-

tion of how to assemble the washers, bolts and nuts.

Place another nut and washer (5/16” x 1.5” OD) on each of the 4 bolts and thread about half way 
down.  These nuts will be used to set the height of the pump. Place the pump on the bolts and 
then place another washer and nut to hold the pump in place. 

NOTE: 

Do not tighten the last nut, 

as you will need to adjust the height once the top of the manifold and fittings are attached to the 
pump.  For questions on how to assemble the proper configuration of nuts and washers, please 
reference
