PUMP
The manufacturer recommends using
a pump protector/winterizer when
storing the unit for more than 30 days
and/or when freezing temperatures
are expected. If a pump protector/
winterizer is not available, RV*
antifreeze needs to be run through the
pump as outlined in the steps below.
NOTE: Using a pump protector/
winterizer or RV* antifreeze is to
provide proper lubrication to the
internal seals of the pump regardless
of temperature or environment.
