Priming The Pump; Lawn Sprinkling Application - AquaPRO 62051 Manual Del Usuario

OPERATION

Priming the Pump

All suction connections must be airtight. Make sure the suction lift is not more than 25 feet (7.6M).
NOTICE: "Priming" refers to the pump expelling all air in the system and beginning to move water from its source out into the
system. It does not refer only to pouring water into the pump (although pouring water in is usually the first step).
CAUTION: Risk of burns. NEVER run the pump dry. Running the pump without water may cause pump to overheat,
damaging seal and possibly causing burns to persons handling the pump. Running pump without water can damage the
impeller and may damage the seal, causing leaking or flooding, and will void the warranty.
Fill the pump with water before starting it.
Follow the steps below:
1. Remove the priming plug.
2. Make sure the suction and the discharge valves and any hoses on the discharge side of the pump are open.
3. Fill the pump and suction pipe with water.
4. Replace the priming plug, using Teflon tape on the thread; tighten the plug.
NOTICE: If a priming tee and plug have been provided for a long horizontal run, be sure to fill the suction pipe through this
tee and replace the plug. (Use Teflon tape on the plug.)
5. Start the pump; water should be produced in 10 minutes or less. The time will depend on the depth to water. If no water is
produced within 10 minutes, stop the pump, release all the pressure, remove the priming plug, refill the ports and pipe and
try again.

Lawn Sprinkling Application

Connect the suction hose to the faucet on the outside of the house and to the pump
suction. Use a standard garden hose for discharge. The pump can supply up to 3-4
sprinklers (depending on GPM output of the sprinklers)
Boosting City Water Pressure
WARNING: Risk of explosion.Hazardous pressure. When using a garden hose as a
discharge line, do not run the pump with the hose outlet or the nozzle closed.
The hose or the nozzle may burst from excessive pressure. When using the pump as a
high-pressure washer, use only reinforced high pressure hose or pipe for the discharge line.
When using a garden hose, install adapters on the pump suction and the discharge. The
suction hose will require two male ends. Use a standard washing machine supply hose as a suction line.
