4- Flow Water

Flow Water

 

As all pump operators should know, water should always be flowing to prevent the pump from overheating.

When discharge lines are not being used, you should recirculate water through the pump by opening the "Tank Suction" valve and the "Tank Fill" valves.

When you need more water pressure, you can increase the throttle and close the "Tank Fill" valve all or part way.

 

There are two discharge lines marked "1.5 Discharge" (preconnect hose on the left rear) and "Booster Reel" (hose reel on left front).

There are also grass nozzles which are explained on the next page.

There is one inlet line on the right which is marked "2.5 Inlet"
