MSP250 Manual Sampling Pump Operation:
1. Connect battery by sliding connector on red wire onto positive (red) battery post. Slide connector on
black wire onto negative (black) battery post.
2. Close case and latches.
3. Place intake hose in source fluid.
4. Place discharge hose in sample container.
5. To take a sample, push switch upward (toward “draw”). To purge (reverse the pump), push switch
downward (toward “purge”).
6. Return switch to the center “off” position to stop pump.
Warnings:
1. DISCONNECT BATTERY BEFORE REMOVING CLEAR PUMP COVER OR INJURY
MAY OCCUR.
2. If MSP250 Manual Pump is used with the handle pointing upward, lay case flat and run pump to
completely clear fluid from lines or spatter may occur.
3. Keep inside of electronics enclosure and battery dry at all times.
Replacing Pump Tubing
The pump tubing on the MSP250 Manual Sampling Pump does not need to be replaced frequently;
however, it should be inspected periodically for wear or damage. Watch for cracking or creasing, which
can indicate it is time to change the tubing. Manning recommends using PharMed® tubing for the best
performance.
To replace the pump tubing:
1. Loosen the four thumbscrews that hold the pump in place. There are four sealing washers attached
to the pump body with adhesive. Make sure these stay in place.
2. Remove the four long screws.
3. Separate the two halves of the clamshell pump and remove the old tubing.

2
4. Orient the pump housing as shown below. (Note: The “bottom,” or the side that fits against the
case, is pointing upward.)
5.
Orient rollers in ½ of pump housing as in
picture.
Note roller position.
6.
Fold pump hose in half, aligning ends and
forming loop at other end.
7.
Place hose around pump rollers, making sure to
place hose into grooves.

3
8.
Using the pump tool* included in the pump kit,
rotate rollers clockwise while pressing hose in
gap between rollers.
*Note: Pump tool is stored in a slot at the
top left of the foam insert in case.
9.
Continue until hose is in place.
10.
Once hose is in place, put on other half of pump
housing.

4
11.
Hold two halves together and rotate rollers
clockwise using the pump tool.
Set aside.
12. To re-attach pump housing, line up the arbor shaft with the pump motor shaft, and place clamshell
onto motor.
13. Rotate the clamshell to align the four screw holes.
14. Replace the long thumbscrews and finger tighten.
Installing and Removing Hose Fittings- ¼” Hose
This procedure is for installing and removing the quick-disconnect fittings used on units
manufactured before May 2012 from the ¼” ID PVC intake hose. It is also applicable for the
installation and removal of strainers from the hose.
Installation of Fitting
1.
End of intake hose should be cut clean and straight.
Using a heat gun (a hair dryer set on high with a
concentrator can be used if a heat gun is not available),
heat the end of the hose until it is very warm to the
touch. Do not melt the hose.

5
2.
Insert a pair of round-nose pliers into the end of the
hose.
3.
Stretch out the hose with the pliers. Rotate the pliers 90
degrees in the hose and stretch again.
4.
Quickly remove the pliers and insert the fitting into the
end of the hose.

6
5.
Press the fitting into the hose using a wiggling motion.
6.
Make sure that barbed end of fitting is fully inserted
into hose
Removal of fitting
1.
Using a knife, cut a slit in the hose along the side of the
connector.

7
2.
Remove fitting using a wiggling motion.
Intake Hose
The sampler is supplied with an extra male and female hose couplings to attach intake hose to the pump
tubing. The MSP250 uses ¼” internal diameter intake hose, which is available from Manning as an
accessory. Intake hose should always be ¼” internal diameter. If a larger internal diameter hose is used,
the coupling may not fit and there will be a loss of performance.
In May of 2012, Manning changed hose couplings. The current couplings are white in color, with a
quarter-turn locking design. The female couplings rotate to help prevent hose kinking. Operation of the
hose couplings is detailed below.

8
If there are solids or debris in the water being sampled, Manning recommends using a strainer on the
intake hose to prevent clogging. Strainers are available from Manning in PVC or stainless steel.
