Product Manual

Select your water pipe in accordance to your conditions and model. To ensure your safety, the
pressure bearing capacity of the water pipe should not lower than the requirements listed in
Chapter 4.
Do not operate beyond the lift of your water pump. If there is a decrease of water discharge flow
cause by excessive lift, the liquid in the water pump may overheat and cause damage to the seals.
To prevent any air leakage and/or water discharge, ensure that you fasten the pipe joint and pipe
coupling clamp sufficiently. Any leakage will reduce the performance and self-priming capacity of
your water pump.
To not attempt to operate your water pump without water. This will cause the water pump to
overheat and damage the seals.
