The installation, operation, and care of your Hydroglass* Pump is

very similar to cast iron pumps. We ask, however, that you keep

the following points in mind.

NOTICE: Use Teflon tape supplied with the pump for making all

threaded connections to the pump.

DO NOT USE PIPE JOINT COMPOUND.

1.Wrap 1-1/2 to 2 turns of Teflon tape to all male pipe threads being attached to the pump. This will insure leakproof connec-

tions. Do not overtighten threaded fittings in the plastic pump.

If leaks do occur, remove the fitting, replace the Teflon tape,

and rewrap with 1-1/2 to 2 turns of Teflon tape and remake the connection.

2.independently support all piping connected to the Hydrogfass _ Pump,
