GENERAL INFORMATION
Review all SAFETY information in Section A.
Since pump installations are seldom identical, this
section is intended only to summarize general rec-
ommendations and practices required to inspect,
position, and arrange the pump and piping. If there
are any questions concerning your specific instal-

mating threads. An optional discharge
adaptor is available to convert the metric
pipe threads in the discharge flange to the
SAE threads.
