Operation

Priming the Pump
NOTICE 'Priming' refers to pump expelling all air in the
system and beginning to move water from its source out
into system. It does not refer only to pouring water into
pump (although pouring water in is usually the first step).
Risk of burns. NEVER run pump dry.
Running pump without water may cause pump to
overheat, damaging seal and possibly causing burns
to persons handling pump. Fill pump with water
before starting.
Step 1. Remove priming plug.
Step 2. Make sure suction and discharge valves and any
hoses on discharge side of pump are open.
Step 3. Fill pump and suction pipe with water (Fig. 5).
Figure 5 - Fill Pump Before Starting
Step 4. Replace priming plug, using Teflon tape on
thread; tighten plug.
NOTICE If priming tee and plug have been
provided for long horizontal run, be sure to fill
suction pipe through this tee and replace plug.
(Use Teflon tape on plug.)
Step 5. Start pump; water should be produced in 10
minutes or less, time depends on depth to
water (not more than 20' (6 m)) and length of
horizontal run (10' (3 m) of horizontal suction
pipe = 1' (30.5 cm) of vertical lift due to friction
losses in pipe). If no water is produced within 10
minutes, stop pump, release all pressure, remove
priming plug, refill and try again.
For parts or assistance, call Flotec Customer Service at
pump against closed discharge. To do so can boil water
inside pump, causing hazardous pressure in unit, risk
of explosion and possibly scalding persons handling
pump (Fig. 6). Replace priming plug with pressure
gauge to monitor pressure so that it is not allowed to
exceed maximum pumping pressures according to
performance chart.
Figure 6 - Do Not Run Pump With Outlet Shut Off
To prevent explosion be sure discharge (valve, pistol grip
hose nozzle, etc.) is open whenever pump is running.
Monitor pump body and piping temperature. Motor will
warm up; this is normal. If pump body or piping begin to
feel warm to touch, shut off pump and allow system to
cool. Release all pressure in system and refill pump and
piping with cold water.
