SETTING THE FLOW VALVES
Page 10
Along with the ability to pump water out (to the spray bar, for example), the SIMPSON
Water Trailer also has the capability to ll its tank from a standing water source such
as a lake, stream or pond.
To pump water from the tank (pump position) the valve handles must be set in the
upward position, (Fig. 1).
The ow valves are what routes the water through the pump. The valves must be set
so the water can either be sent to, or taken from, the tank.
In order to ll the tank (draw position) the valve handles must be set in the downward
position, (Fig. 2).
