Airlock; Care And Cleaning - Everbilt UT03301 Guía De Uso Y Cuidado

Airlock

This pump (A) is a centrifugal utility pump, designed to efficiently
remove water. However, it cannot move air. If air is trapped inside
the pump (a condition called "airlock"), the pump cannot pump
water out even though the pump is completely submerged. This
adaptor (included) has an anti-airlock hole. Air flows out through the
anti-airlock hole, eliminating the airlock so that the pump can
operate properly. If debris blocks the anti-airlock hole, unplug the
pump, clean out the anti-airlock hole, and restart the pump.
Alternately, drain the water out of the garden hose, keep the end of
the hose out of the water, and plug in the power cord, restarting the
pump.
CAUTION:This hole is for anti-airlock purposes only.
Leakage of air or water is normal and necessary.
DO NOT REMOVE OR PLUG THIS HOLE!

Care and Cleaning

allow time for it to cool after periods of extended use.
