will arrive to you in our “shipping position”. This will
require a few minutes of basic assembly before the pump
can be used for the first time.
The parts listed in the Section Assembly drawing on page
11 will be needed to complete the assembly process. I
f
you did not receive these parts, please contact your local
Hardee dealer for assistance.
·Carefully remove clamps that hold the front section o
f
pump to the rear section. Lift the front frame off of the
rear frame and position it as shown on page 11.
·Connect the bottom of pump sections with bolt (4)
10096 and lock nut (7) 10166. Use the first hole in
the rear section and the second hole in the front
section. Connect the front section (with pull tongue)
to the rear section using top connector plate (43)
70145 with bolt (3) 10094 and lock nut (7) 10166.
Note: Item (43) 70145 has a notch in one end. The
notched end is toward the impeller of the unit. For the
recommended configuration of the pump, use the
outer set of holes in the top connector plate (43)
70145.
·Connect rear discharge pipe (44) 70146 to front
discharge pipe section (42) 70144 using hose clamp
(25) 11816 and connector hose (55) 70172 provided.
Repeat on other side. See page 11 for reference.
Installation of Middle Driveshaft
The middle driveshaft has been pre-cut at our factory to
be the correct length when used in the standard
recommended configuration of your Hardee pump. If you
choose to operate your pump with additional pump
sections or in the flat configuration, the middle driveshaft
will require cutting to proper length. We recommend
contacting your local Hardee dealer for assistance.
After the middle driveshaft has been cut to the proper
length needed, you are ready to install the middle
driveshaft. See page 11 for reference.
·Remove the retaining ring (23) 11469 from the middle
pump shaft (40) 70142.
·Carefully push middle driveshaft (54) 70171 onto
middle pump shaft (40) 70142 until it protrudes past
retaining ring groove.
·Install retaining ring (23) 11469 onto middle pump
shaft (40) 70142.
·Pull middle driveshaft (54) 70171 forward to align
holes in yoke with those in the middle pump shaft
(40) 70142.
·Install 1/2 x 3 3/4-inch grade 5 connecting bolt (2)
10076 and lock nut (9) 10176.
Note: Grade 5 bolts can be identified by three
slashes on the bolt head. See Appendix 1 on page 17
for reference.
·Repeat with other end of the middle driveshaft,
making sure to use grade 5 connecting bolt (2) 10076
and nut (9) 10176.
The pump is now assembled and is ready to connect with
your tractor.
Driveshaft Installation on Front Pump Shaft
The make of your tractor will determine the length of
driveshaft you require to connect from the end of the front
pump shaft to the PTO connection of your tractor. This
step may require cutting the standard driveshaft included
with the Hardee pump. We recommend contacting your
local Hardee dealer for assistance. See page 13 for
reference.

·Remove the retaining ring (23) 11469 from the front
pump shaft (41) 70143.
·Carefully push driveshaft (22) 11174 onto front pump
shaft (41) 70143 until it protrudes past retaining ring
groove.
·Install retaining ring (23) 11469 onto front pump shaft
(41) 70143.
! WARNING !
Never operate pump without retaining ring in place. If
the shear bolt shears, the retaining ring is the only
thing that holds the driveshaft onto the front pump
shaft. A missing retaining ring could lead to the
driveshaft disconnecting from the front pump shaft,
which may result in severe personal injury or death.
·Pull driveshaft (22) 11174 forward to align holes in
yoke with those in the front pump shaft (41) 70143.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Operating Configuration
Before continuing with the assembly of the water
diversion parts for your Hardee pump. You will need to
consider the final operating position of your pump and
tractor. Meaning, can you move the water flow straight by
both sides of the tractor? Or will you need to divert the
water flow to the left or right side of the tractor? After
making your decision, read the next assembly section
with that in mind.
Pre-Operation Check
Your Hardee High Volume Water Pump should now be
assembled. You should now inspect your new pump for
any evidence of defective or damaged parts before the
first use. Any evidence of damage should be reported to
your local Hardee dealer immediately! All joints requiring
grease should be inspected and greased if necessary.
Check all bolts for proper tightness. You should also
check that the grade 2 shear bolt is in place on the front
pump shaft connection. The use of any other grade shear
bolt will void your product warranty!
Installation of Diversion Parts
The parts listed in the Front Section Assembly drawing
on page 13 will be needed to operate your pump in our
recommended standard operating configuration. These
parts are supplied as standard items with your pump. If
you did not receive these parts, please contact your local
Hardee dealer for assistance. See page 13 for reference.
SET-UP FOR PUMPING STRAIGHT
Right & Left Side Of Pump
·Attach hose adapter (38) 70140 to front discharge
pipe (42) 70144 using a good quality PVC primer and
PVC cement.
·Attach section of “lay-flat” hose with two hose clamps
(25) 11816 to hose adapter (38) 70140.
SET-UP FOR PUMPING TO THE RIGHT
·Attach 45º elbow (27) 11825 to front discharge pipe
(42) 70144. Elbow gasket will require a small amount
of lithium grease to allow proper fit.
·Using four ¼” x 1” Tec screws, drill and attach the
elbow to discharge pipe. Angle Elbow parallel to
ground.

8
Moving Into Pump Site
With the pipe sections correctly installed on the pump,
carefully back your pump into the water. The Hardee
water pump is designed to be a rugged piece of farm
equipment, but take care not to back directly over tree
stumps and other large submerged debris.
·Lower the pump into the water until the pump
housing (33) 70107 is submerged.
Note: Remember, no damage will occur to your pump if
it is allowed to run dry or out of the water. But you should
never leave your tractor running unattended.
·Install final discharge pipes or hoses.
We recommend using stiff pipes, not hoses for your final
discharge. The stiff pipes will allow you to discharge over
your dike or embankment without the water washing
down and eroding the embankment (refer to lower left
picture on the front cover of this manual).
Starting Your Pump
·Bring the tractor to idle speed and engage the PTO.
·Slowly increase the RPM to allow all pipes and hoses
to fill with water.
·Increase speed until the desired operating output is
reached.
The water flow you achieve depends greatly on the
following factors: Tractor RPM, Head (how high the pump
lifts the water) and Pipe configuration (straight vs.
elbows).
During the time your pump is in use, we recommend that
you periodically reposition the unit to prevent it from
becoming stuck in the sediment that may form around the
unit. Depending on the soil conditions, this may be as
often as once a day or once a week.
! CAUTION !
After removing power from the pump, allow the pipes
and hoses to drain completely before attempting to
reposition the discharge pipes.
After using your Hardee water pump we encourage you
to follow the recommended maintenance and storage
instructions included in this manual.
MAINTENANCE
Like any mechanical device, the pump requires basic
maintenance and upkeep. With regular lubrication and
proper maintenance, the Hardee pump will provide long
service and trouble free performance. Operators with
basic mechanical skills must read and strictly adhere to
the safety precautions in this manual before attempting to
service the pump. Trained service technicians at your
local Hardee dealer are also available for consultation
and assistance.
Service Preparation
! WARNING !
Never attempt any checks, repairs or adjustments with
the tractor engine running or the PTO engaged.
Adjustment of rotating parts with tractor engine running
may result in severe personal injury or death if the PTO
accidentally engages.
Keep All Bolts Tight
·Check before placing in service.
·Visually inspect all bolts daily.
·Check after first 50 hours or one week’s operation.
·Check before and after each use.
Lubrication
Consult the following chart for lubrication frequency. Use
a good marine grease at the intervals specified based on
normal operating conditions. At times of heavy, long-
duration operation, lubricate more frequently. Keep
excess grease from collecting on or around parts,
especially when operating in and around sandy areas.
Lubrication Frequency
Interval Location
8 hours U-Joints
8 hours Driveshaft Slip Joint
4 hours Pillow Block Bearings
! CAUTION !
Never clean, adjust or lubricate an impeller shaft that is
in motion. Impeller could cause severe injury.
