Page 3: Section I. How Your Pump Works
READ AND FOLLOW ALL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS SECTION I. HOW YOUR PUMP WORKS Your centrifugal pump is designed to operate for years with proper maintenance. The pump housing, seal plate, hair and lint pot and impeller are made from high quality thermoplastic materials. These materials have been selected for their corrosion resistance nature. - Page 4 4. Provide space and lighting for routine maintenance access. Do not mount electrical controls directly over pump. 5. The pump should be installed as near to the pool or spa as practical. Avoid installing the pump above the water level. Suction lifts of more than 1/2 foot will cause very long priming times, and potentially damage the pump. 6.
- Page 5 17. The pump motor must be wired for the proper voltage in accordance with the wiring diagram supplied with the motor. Wiring the motor with the incorrect supply voltage will cause damage to the motor and void the warranty. 18. The wiring to the motor should be kept as short as possible and large enough NOT to cause an excessive voltage drop.
