AUTOJET & MULTIMAX STAINLESS STEEL JET PUMPS • Autojet60 • Autojet80 • Multimax120 We recommend, for additional protection, the pump to be supplied from socket outlet protected by a residual current device – RCD (also known as an Earth Leakage Circuit Breaker – ELCB) with a maximum rated residual current of 30mA.
Application Flotec AJ & MM Series pumps are suitable for pumping clean water in a domestic water system, small irrigation applications, and as pressure booster pumps. The strength of the stainless steel pump casing coupled with the impervious nature of the technopolymer impeller and diffuser make it ideally suited for most potable water pumping applications.

Fig.1 Priming Plug 9. Electrical The pump is supplied with a interconnection appliance coupler and standard Australian 10 Ampere plug and cord. Connection to the power supply is a matter of inserting the plug into the suitable socket outlet. Before plugging the power supply cord into the socket outlet, connect the pump to it using the provided IEC appliance connectors on the end of the interconnection cords.
Operation 1. Start-up / Operation Ensure you have primed the pump correctly. (Instructions on priming the pump can be found in the installation section under Point 8. Priming Pump). The MM Series pump is not self-priming and must be primed prior to use. The AJ Series pumps are self priming therefore it is possible to start them without filing the suction pipe with water.
Water may be HOT, release pressure with care before servicing. 1. General Care and Maintenance Under normal conditions the Flotec AJ & MM series of pumps requires only minimal attention. In order to prevent possible failures, it is advisable to periodically check the pressure supplied and power absorption.
Troubleshooting Symptom Cause Remedy No Electricity. Verify presence of electricity. Pump does not operate and Not Plugged in correctly. Ensure pump is connected properly. motor does not run. Circuit breaker activated. Reset circuit breaker. Clean suction pipe and foot valve/strainer. Clean the pump by flushing with water.
