OPERATION
Operation
1. Attach a suitable lifting chain to the eye bolts (Figure 14) on
the pump and using a crane, or similar equipment, lower the
pump into place. For applications where there is an exces-
sive amount of mud, grit or silt, the use of a support platform
is desirable.
2. Make sure the pump is always placed in an upright position,
not tilted (Figure 15). Never position the pump directly on a
soft, loose bottom. Remember to attain maximum pumping
capacity and prevent excessive wear, position the pump so
it will not burrow itself into sand or clay.
