4 Installing the Pump Hoses 1. Cover the threads of the white colored 1" to 3/4" reducer bushing with threaded sealing tape or pipe joint compound. 2. Screw the white colored reducer bushing into the pump outlet. Hand tighten + one (1) turn with a 12" adjustable wrench. Torque = 60 in-lb (6.8 N-m). 3. Unscrew the adapter cap from the adapter. Cover the threads with threaded sealing tape or pipe joint compound. 4. Screw the black colored adapter into the white reducer bushing. Hand tighten the adapter + one (1) and a quarter turns with a 12" adjustable wrench. Note: A second 12" adjustable wrench is recommended to hold the reducer bushing in place while tightening the adapter. 5. Cut the hose to the length needed to connect the booster pump to the return line.You may need to shape the hose end to round out the opening. 6. Slide the adapter cap up onto the hose. Be sure the adapter cap is up onto the hose before attaching hose to adapter. 7. Twist and push hose onto the adapter until the hose is flush with the adapter threads. Be sure the end of the hose is evenly bottomed out on the adapter. Note: Apply heat or warm water to help attach hose if needed (heats makes hose more flexible). 8. Screw the adaptor cap onto the adaptor to secure the hose. Hand tighten the adapter cap. Turn one (1) time with a wrench if needed. 9. Repeat steps 1-8 for both outlet and inlet hose connection.
