PUMP SET-UP
A submersible electric water pump is used to supply water to the polishing wheels as coolant and
lubricant. The pump has a flow control adjustment on one side and should be adjusted for maximum
water intake (Fig 10). It is recommended that a 5 gallon bucket be used as a water reservoir into which
the submersible pump should be placed. The level of the reservoir water should be monitored so that
water the pump always remains fully submerged.

Connect the pump to the brass ON/OFF barbed lever valve at the rear of the hood with the included
1/4" ID water hose. Insert one end of the 1/4" ID water hose over the water pump outlet (Fig 11) and
the other end over the barbed end of the water valve inlet (Fig 12).

The pump can be plugged into the female receptacle plug accessory attached to the main switch box
(Fig 13) when using the GP-6 Cabmaker. Power to run the pump will occur once the switch box lever
is placed in the ON position. The pump should be operated in maximum flow setting. This will allow
sufficient water to reach the valve on the rear of the hood to provide water to each of the three needle
valves that control water flow to each of the three work stations.
