5. Installatie

5.1. Controles vóór installatie

Controleer of de put casing or cistern diameter is at least 4 inches.
Zorg ervoor dat de voeding voltage and frequency match the pump's specifications (115V/60HZ).
Inspect the pump for any visible damage before installation.
Prepare all necessary tools and materials, including appropriate piping, fittings, and a strong rope or cable for lowering the pump.

5.2. Connecting the Pump

Apply thread seal tape to the 1-1/4" FNPT outlet of the pump.
Step 1: Apply thread seal tape to the pump's outlet.
Attach the appropriate discharge pipe (steel, hose, or plastic) to the pump's outlet. Secure it tightly with a hose clamp or suitable fitting.
Step 2: Connect the discharge pipe securely.
Attach a strong, non-corrosive rope or safety cable to the designated rope hole on the pump. This will be used to lower and retrieve the pump.
Step 3: Secure a rope or cable to the pump for lowering.
Ensure all connections are watertight and secure.
Step 4: Verify all connections are tight and leak-free.

5.3. Lowering the Pump

Carefully lower the pump into the well or cistern using the attached rope/cable. Ensure the pump remains vertical during the entire process. Avoid dropping the pump or allowing it to hit the sides of the well/cistern, which could cause damage.
