OPERATION
OTE: 
N
The pump is equipped a with a thermo valve 
(see Figure 24 and Figure 25). If the pump 
is run for an extended period of time without 
water fl owing through it, it could overheat. If 
the pump gets to a certain temperature, the 
thermo valve will open and discharge warm 
water out the valve to allow cold water in to 
cool the pump. 
3.  Point the thermo valve away from the work area 
you are washing to avoid being sprayed with warm 
water.
