Chemicals used may be dangerous and should be used carefully and according
to warnings on the label. Follow the directions given with each type of chemical.
Do not assume chemicals are the same because they look alike. Always store
chemicals in a safe location away from children and others. We cannot be
responsible for the misuse of chemicals being fed by the pump. Always have the
material safety data sheet (MSDS) available for any fluid being pumped.
•
All pumps are pretested with water before shipment. Remove head and dry
thoroughly if you are pumping a material that will react with water, (i.e. sulfuric
acid, polymers). Valve seats, ball checks, gaskets, and diaphragm should also be
dried. Before placing pump into service, extreme care should be taken to follow
this procedure.

Valve cartridges are stamped to indicate fluid flow direction. Always install so
that markings read from top to bottom, with the arrow pointing in the direction of
flow.

rigid pipe. Consult supplier for special adapters or valve assemblies.
