21. Assembly of the device
Installation of the suction line
Use a standard hose and the hose connection with hose clamp (15;16), as supplied for the pump. The suction
line must be reinforced with a stiff wall or wire mesh. Do not use a hose that is smaller than the suction mouth
(11) of the pump. The suction line should only be as long as necessary. The pumping performance is best when
the pump is as close to
the water level as possible, and the hoses are short.
Use a hose clamp to fix the hose connection to the suction line to avoid leakage air and suction power loss.
Make sure that the seal (14) of the hose connection is in good condition.
Install the filter screen (17; supplied) at the other end of the suction line and fasten it with a hose clamp. The
filter screen ensures that the pump is not clogged or damaged by foreign matter. Attach the hose connection
to the suction mouth (11) of the pump.
Please ensure that the seal is correctly seated, otherwise the pump will draw air and cannot provide full
performance.

Installation of the pressure line
Use a standard hose and hose connector with a hose clamp, as supplied for the pump.
It is best to use a short hose with a large diameter, reducing fluid friction and improving pumping
performance. A long or thin hose increases fluid friction and reduces pumping capacity.
Tighten the hose clamp firmly to prevent the outlet hose from slipping under pressure.
