Helpful Hints
The capacity of this diaphragm pump will vary greatly depending on
the height of the suction lift and length of the discharge hose. A
discharge hose which is too small, long or high will cause the
following:
Excessive bulging of diaphragm on the down stroke.
Valves closing with a loud snap.
Rough operation.
Engine overloads and slow downs.
Reduced efficiency.
NOTE
Diaphragm pumps will handle fluids
containing considerable solids (see
Table 1 for maximum solids diameter),
however, if the mixture is too heavy to
be pumped, water must be added until
the mixture becomes sufficently fluid for
pumping.
CAUTION - Strainer
The strainer should be positioned so it will remain completely
under water
. Running the pump with the strainer above
water for long periods can damage the pump.
DO NOT pump flammable fluids, corrosive chemicals or fluids
containing toxic substances. These fluids can create potentially
dangerous health and environmental hazards. Contact local
authorities for assistance.
CAUTION - Flammable Fluids
