See Figure 9 and remove the clip that holds the
hose assembly on the reel and insert the nozzle
into the standpiipe. Push the hose down the stand-
pipe until a slight resistance it felt. This occurs
when the suction nozzle travels over the rollers at
the end of the standpipe.
Figure 10.
See Figure 10 and make sure the motor switch is
OFF. Plug the power cable into a 20 amp/120 volt
grounded outlet.
The electrical power used to operate
this unit is high enough to cause injury
or death to personnel. Connect the elec-
trical plug to a grounded power supply;
never use gas piping as an electrical
ground. Be sure the power supply is of
the correct voltage and phase. Do not
run the motor if the power supply is not
within acceptable limits. If a circuit
breaker or fuse is tripped, examine and
correct the problem before re-starting
the unit.

Plug Receptacle
Figure 11.
This pump is furnished with a grounded, 20
amp/120 Volt electrical plug as required by the Na-
tional Electric Code (see Figure 11). No cord or
plug substitution is authorized by the Gorman-
Rupp Company.
Never attempt to change the electrical
plug or alter the length of the power cord
with a splice. Equipment failure or per-
sonal injury could result if all connec-
tions are not waterproof and compatible
with the electrical current used.
Refer to OPERATION, Section C before starting
the pump.
Line Configuration
Keep suction and discharge lines as straight as
possible to minimize friction losses.
Hose Connections
Check all hose and pump connections to be sure
the quick-connect couplers and joints are com-
pletely sealed. Hose lines may have to be sup-
ported and secured when filled and operated un-
der pressure.
