•To avoid the pump clogging - the
pump should not be placed on the
bottom of the water butt, this can be
achieved by either suspending the
pump from a rope attached to the
handle, or by placing the pump on 2
bricks (see Fig. 2).

remove any trapped air. The priming
process can take up to 5 minutes. For
faster priming lower the pump in to
the water without the hose
connected, and connect the hose
after a few seconds once the air has
escaped.

Fig. 2) add a 2166 hose connector
(available separately) and pass hose
out through hole in lid of tank.
■For use with micro irrigation system -
Do not use with a pressure regulator
(see Fig. 3) Remove inlet from
pressure regulator and attach directly
to the hose outside of the water butt
using a 2166 hose connector and a
2289 accessory adaptor (both
available separately).
TO DRAIN WATER:
- (see Fig. 4) add a 2166 hose
connector (available separately) and
place the end of hose in a suitably
