Semi-Trash Pump Location

Place the semi-trash pump in a well ventilated area. DO

NOT place the semi-trash pump near vents or intakes

where exhaust fumes could be drawn into occupied

or conﬁned spaces. Carefully consider wind and air

currents when positioning semi-trash pump.

This semi-trash pump must have at least 5 ft. (1.5 m) of

clearance from combustible material. Leave at least

3 ft. (0.91 m) of clearance on all sides of the semi-trash

pump to allow for adequate cooling, maintenance and

servicing.

Place the pump on a level surface free from any

obstructions or potential hazards. The pump should

be placed close to the water level to ensure maximum

pump performance.

Connecting a Hose Kit

1. Attach and thread the connector to the threaded ﬂange.

2. Slide the ﬂexible, outlet hose over connector and

secure with the hose clamp.

4. Fasten the quick coupler to the suction hose with

the hose clamp.

5. Wrap the 2 in. (5 cm) NPT inlet clockwise with

the Teﬂon tape provided. Carefully thread the male

connector to the intake port.

3. Insert quick coupler in the rigid suction hose.

Pump output will be affected by the type, length, and

size of the suction and discharge hoses. The pumping

height, also known as the total head, is the distance

from the water level to the point of discharge. As

this distance increases, pump output decreases. The

discharge capacity is greater than the suction capacity.

Therefore, it is important that the suction head is less

than the discharge head.

The time required to draw water from the source to

the pump (self-priming time) can be decreased by

minimizing the suction head.

OPERATION

Both the intake and discharge ports are 2 in. NPT.

Please insure the connectors to the suction and

discharge hose are 2 in. NPT threaded.

Connecting a Host Kit Cont’d.
