Mounting Hose and Nozzle

3.Cut the suction tube so that it is 2 in. (55 mm) from the bottom of the tank when installed in the tank.

4.Insert gasket (7f) into union nut (1k). If using Graco supplied PVC suction tube it is not necessary to apply thread tape before assembly, just screw into pump inlet (1j). If using metal suction tube (not sup- plied with pump) then apply thread tape provided with pump to NPT threads before assembling to pump inlet (1j).

5.Insert suction tube attached to pump through bung adapter (9) into tank. Position pump as desired and tighten union nut (1k) on bung adapter (9).

Installation

1.Apply thread tape provided with pump to both ends of hose assembly. Screw ¾” NPT end of 90° union swivel (15) to one end of hose (see fig. 5).

2.Screw nozzle onto other end of hose and tighten.

3.Start swivel end of 90° union swivel (15) onto ¾” nipple (14) on pump outlet (see FIG. 5). Orient the hose/nozzle assembly to desired position and tighten swivel fitting.

It is important that the swivel end of the 90° union swivel (15) is assembled to the ¾” outlet nipple (14) for proper sealing (see FIG. 6). If the pump has diffi- culty priming, it is easy to remove the swivel and pour fluid into the pump outlet cavity when assem- bled this way.
