GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
1) WORK AREA
a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered and dark areas invite accidents.
b) Do not operate pumps in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids,
gases, or dust. Pumps create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
c) Keep children and bystanders away while operating a pump. Distractions can cause you to lose control.
2) ELECTRICAL SAFETY
a) Pump plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs
with earthed (grounded) pumps. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
b) Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and
refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
c) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the pump. Keep cord away
from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.
d) When operating a pump outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord
suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
3) PERSONAL SAFETY
a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a pump. Do not use a
pump while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of
inattention while operating pumps may result in serious personal injury.
b) Avoid accidental starting. Ensure the switch is in the off position before plugging in. Carrying pumps
with your finger on the switch or plugging in pumps that have the switch on invites accidents.
c) Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the pump on. A wrench or a key left attached to a
rotating part of the pump may result in personal injury.
d) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away
from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
4) PUMP USE AND CARE
a) Disconnect the plug from the power source before making any adjustments, changing accessories,
or storing pumps. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the pump accidentally.
b) Maintain pumps. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any
other condition that may affect the pumps operation. If damaged, have the pump repaired before
use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained pumps.
c) Use the pump, accessories and tool bits etc., in accordance with these instructions and in the manner
intended for the particular type of pump, taking into account the working conditions and the work to
be performed. Use of the pump for operations different from intended could result in a hazardous situation.
5) SERVICE
a) Have your pump serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement parts. This
will ensure that the safety of the pump is maintained.
b) If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly
qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.

SET-UP & INSTALLATION
Positioning the Hose or Pipe
Position the input hose or pipe so that it rises from the water drawing source to the pump. Avoid positioning the
input hose or pipe higher than the pump, as this would delay the escape of air bubbles from the input hose or pipe
and impede the priming process (see section ‘starting the pump’ for description on priming the pump) (Fig. 1-2).

Note: The input hose or pipe you are using must have a minimum diameter
of 19mm (3/4”).
Note: Ensure the discharge hose or pipe is not restricted in anyway and no pressure is obstructing the hose or
pipe when the pump is in operation.
Priming Guide
The constant pressure pump is the heart of the system. Sometimes the constant pressure pump will be on but
not moving any water. Constant Pressure pumps are designed to pump water and can handle a small amount of
air in the system. If too much air enters the system, the pump may fail to move water or "Loose the Prime". Air
can enter the system in many ways. It is important to determine why the pump lost its prime before you try to get
it circulating again or you may not succeed.
Be sure to keep the O-Ring on the Filter cover lubricated with “petroleum jelly” to help the lid seal correctly and
to allow easier removal of the lid. When the pump is operating correctly the pump lid is under suction and the
pump will naturally squeeze the lid tight. It is important NOT to over tighten the pump lid or removal will be
difficult. When the pump is operating correctly, it will appear as though there is NO water in the pump. What
you are viewing is 100% water in the pump basket and no air. With no air bubbles swirling and only water, it
appears as if the filter is empty.

SET-UP & INSTALLATION (cont.)
Priming
1. Ensure all outlet discharge devices (such as taps and trigger nozzles) are in the
fully open position, to allow all the air in the system to escape.
2. Remove transparent filter cover (2) by turning it anti-clockwise using the filter
cover spanner (10) (Fig. 8).
3. Remove filter (8) together with the non-return valve (9). Use two hands to
remove as it can stick. When removed place on a clean surface as any dirt
around the filter (8) and non-return valve (9) may prevent effective seal and
correct operation. Slowly fill the pump housing with water until full (Fig.9) (it
should take approx. 3 liters to fill the pump to the required level).
CAUTION: Care is to be taken when removing filter (8) and non-return valve (9)
from pump as they can separate.
Note: If less than 2.5 liters enter the pump this means there is an air lock in the pump, ensure that all discharge
devices are fully open to allow air to dispel from the pump housing.
4. Re-fit the filter (8) together with the non-return valve (9). Push in firmly. Re-fit and tighten the filter cover (2).
Note: O-ring seal on filter cover (2) may dislodge when removing from pump, ensure proper fitment as this may
prevent effective seal and correct operation.
5. Open the gate valve to allow water to flow from your tank to the pump.
6. Turn on the constant pressure pump (refer to instruction manual page 14 OPERATION, for procedure).
7. It may take a few minutes for the pump to completely prime.
Note: Do not let the pump run for longer than about 20-30 minutes without water circulation or overheating
may occur.
8. Once the pump has achieved circulation, some air may still be in the pump when the discharge device is opened.
9. Close the discharge device and let the pump pressurize.
10. The pump will automatically shutoff once it is fully pressurized.
Note: If the pump starts to turn on and off check inlet and out let plumbings and fittings to ensure there are no
visible leaks and repeat the above process.

Factors that affect the pumps ability to prime:
1. Pump Location
a) The further the pump is from the tank the harder it is for the pump to prime, it may take extra time to remove air
out of the suction line and/or cause air pockets in the suction line.
b) The higher the pump is from the tank water level, the harder it is for the pump to prime as it needs to lift the
water up to the pump.
2. Air Leaks -
a) If there are any air leaks in the plumbing (suction and discharge) it will be more difficult to prime.
b) If the pump lid and O-Ring are not installed correctly or if they have cracks or are worn, it will be harder to regain
the prime.
3. Tank Water Level - If the water level is low in the tank, the pump will not be able to prime correctly.
Factors that may cause the pump to loose it's prime:
Check your setup
a) Is their sufficient water in the water tank to fully submerge the tank outlet?
b) Are suction and discharge lines as straight as possible?
c) Is the gateway valve in the open position?
d) Has the pre-filter with non-return valve been fitted correctly?
e) Is the pump pre-filter lid on tight and is the O-Ring installed and lubricated?
f) Are there any breaks or leaks on the suction plumbing, has Teflon tape been used on the threads?
g) Are there signs of small water leaks in the inlet or discharge plumbing?
Connections to Pump
Keep suction and discharge lines as straight as possible to minimize friction losses. Make minimum use of elbows and
fittings, which substantially increase friction loss. If elbows are necessary, use the long-radius type to minimize
friction loss.
Suction lines
To avoid air pockets which could affect pump priming, the suction line must be as short and direct as possible. When
operation involves a suction lift, the line must always slope upward to the pump from the source of the liquid being
pumped; if the line slopes down to the pump at any point along the suction run, air pockets will be created.

OPERATION
Turning the Pump On and Off
Note: When the pump is fully primed and air is flushed out of the suction cycle, the
pump is ready to operate. The pump may take several minutes to fully prime air from
the suction line and inside the pump.
