Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Insert the suction tube end of the pump into the liquid source container.
- Place the outlet end of the hose into the destination container, ensuring it is lower than the liquid level in the source container.
- Squeeze the bulb repeatedly to initiate the flow of liquid. Once a siphon is established, continue squeezing intermittently to maintain flow.
Compatibility:
This pump is compatible with liquids such as kerosene, diesel, gasoline, non-potable water, light oils, soaps, detergents, mild acids, and chemical insecticides. It is not recommended for highly corrosive chemicals or liquids that could damage Polyethylene (PE).
Care:
After each use, it is recommended to flush the pump with clean water, especially after transferring fuels or oils, to prevent residue buildup. Store the pump in a clean, dry place away from direct sunlight. Ensure the pump is completely dry before storing to prevent mold or mildew. Periodically inspect the hose and bulb for any signs of wear or damage.
