6. Prime the pump with water by
removing the filler plug on top of
the pump and filling with water,
leaving no air gap.
• The pump is self-priming only
when the pump is filled. It will
prime and re-prime itself
without refilling. Refilling is
necessary only if the pump has
been drained.
7. Never allow the pump to run dry.
8. If the discharge hose runs
vertically more than 30ft a check
valve should be installed in the
discharge hose near the pump to
stop water hammer when the
pump is shut down.
• It is the pump owners
responsibility to supply and
install a check valve to protect
the pump in this way.
9. Properly fuelled and lubricated, the pump will run without further attention.
