HOSE
INSTALLATION
Use the commercially available hose and hose connector
with
the
hose clamp provided
with
the pump. The suction -hose must be
reinforced
with
a
noncollapsible
wall
or braided wire construction.
The suction hose should be no longer than necessary. Pump
performance is best when the pump is near the water level, and the
hoses are short.
Use a hose clamp to securely fasten the hose connector to the suction
hose in order to prevent air leakage and
loss
of suction. Verify that the
hose connector sealing washer is in good condition.
Install the strainer (provided
with
the pump) on the other end of the
suction hose, and secure
it
with
a
hose clamp. The strainer
will
help to
prevent the pump from becoming clogged
or
damaged
by
debris.
Securely tighten the hose connector on the
pump
suction port.
