3 PUMP
CONNECTIONS
Do not use stainless steel, chrome or nickel plated pipe with the
flexible hose push-in plumbing connections.
Do not introduce solder flux into the joint or surrounding area as
connectors will be attacked and may fail.
All solder joints should be completed and flux residues removed
before final connection to push-in connections, on the flexible hose.
Do not allow contact with oil or cellulose based paints, paint
thinners or strippers, acid based descalents or aggressive cleaning
agents.
Never operate pump with inlet and/or outlet isolating valves in the
closed position. Damage will occur!

Hose to pump: The pump inlet and outlet ports have factory assembled fittings
which are specifically designed for connection to the G ¾ female running nuts on
the flexible hoses. The hose end is fitted with a rubber sealing washer which is
held captive within the nut assembly. Locate the hose into position and
screw the nut fully onto the fitting by hand. Finally nip tight with a spanner
(4/5 Nm) for a water tight seal
(do not overtighten).

Note: When tightening or loosening the
hose nut assembly, the anti-rotation
flats provided on the inlet and outlet
fittings should be used for placement
of a second spanner as shown. This is
to prevent complete assembly rotation.
It may be necessary to partially rotate
the reed switch clamp assembly on the
outlet fitting to avoid damage during
placement of the second spanner.
