SETUP & INSTALLATION
Positioning The Pump
1. Place the pump close to the water that is required to be pumped (Fig. 1).
Note:
Ensure the pump is no further than 5m away from the water's edge.
2. Fill the engine crank case with oil (not included).
Note:
SAE 10W-30 oil is recommended, refer to the maintenance section for more
information.
Suction Inlet
Connecting Hose or Pipe to the Suction Inlet
Note:
Keep all hoses short and as straight as possible, failure to do so may decrease the pressure pumps performance.
Note:
It is recommended that a filter (27) and check valve (not included) is installed at the end of the suction hose or pipe,
in order to prevent long priming periods and unnecessary damage as a result of stones and solid foreign materials
entering the pump.
Note:
Reinforced or ridge suction hoses are required on the suction line to prevent the pipe from collapsing due to
pressure from suction.
Caution:
All connections must be air tight, failure to do so may result in an air leak which can prevent the pump
from priming. It is recommended that a thread sealant (not included) and/or Teflon tape (not included) is used on
threads to ensure a water tight seal and prevent any leakage during assembly.
1. Assemble the 40mm (1
1
/
2
") hose clamp (25) and filter (27) strainer to the intake
side of the suction hose (Fig. 2).
2. Tighten the 40mm (1
1
/
2
") hose clamp (25) tightly ensuring it clamps the hose
against the filter (27) strainer (Fig. 2)
3. Assemble the 40mm (1
1
/
2
") hose adaptor (24) by inserting into the 40mm (1
1
/
2
")
collar (23) in (Fig. 3).
Note:
Ensure the 40mm (1
1
/
2
") o-ring (26) is fitted into the 40mm (1
1
/
2
") collar (23),
failure to do so may result in an air leak.
4. Assemble the 40mm (1
1
/
2
") hose clamp (25) and the assembled inlet adaptor to
the outlet side of the suction hose (Fig. 4).
5. Add thread sealant (not included) and/or Teflon tape (not included) on to the
suction inlet (13).
