INSTRUCTION MANUAL & WARRANTY – WaterPro DT42 PUMP
APPLICATION: This pump is fit for purpose when installed correctly according to these instructions;
For pumping of Clean Fresh Water at a temperature of +5°C to +40°C to: Garden Taps, Garden Sheds or similar, Clean Water Transfer, and
for no other use. It is not intended for use for whole-of-house supply or commercial applications. It must not be used in hazardous
locations, or for liquids other than clean water, or in continuous running applications, or in applications that require frequent starting and
stopping.
IMPORTANT: Ensure the pump is the right size for your application, before you install it. A pump that is under-sized is not faulty, and is not
covered by warranty. Ensure the right size piping is used, small pipes will reduce performance and will cause the pump to use much more
power, costing you a lot of money in the long term! See 8 in the instructions below for further information

& pipe-fittings & valves. Product depicted may differ from the product supplied, due to design changes or improvements. *Amps and Wattage vary according to the load on the motor.
INSTALLATION GUIDELINES
Please read and follow the instructions. Warranty is voided if the instructions are not followed.
1. IMPORTANT MANDATORY REQUIREMENTS FOR ALL INSTALLATIONS: Before installing or servicing disconnect from the power supply. All
pumps must be installed using barrel-union connections to facilitate easy servicing or replacement. Ball-valves or gate-valves must be fitted on
the suction, and the discharge, and the Town-water backup supply where fitted. A Y-Strainer or Pre-filter must be installed on the suction to
prevent particles entering the pump. Remove all swarf from the tank after cutting openings etc – swarf in the pump voids warranty. All
instructions are conditions of warranty; all warranty is void if instructions are not followed.
It is recommended to install a Check-Valve in the discharge pipework, however DO NOT install the check valve directly on the discharge of the
Pressure Controller, as this may cause it to malfunction, install the Check-Valve further down the pipe, before the first point of discharge.
2.POSITION Do not position the pump where it could take in solids or sludge. This pump is not to be used as your sole water supply. For critical
applications where loss of water supply could cause serious consequences, use a DUAL PUMP System so you have a backup water supply or
use a TOWN-WATER BACK-UP SYSTEM. This pump is not designed nor intended to be used for Fire Fighting purposes.
3.PROTECT FROM THE WEATHER: The pump must be protected from the weather, by way of a plastic pump cover or skillion roof cover, or
similar. However the installer must ensure that there is adequate ventilation so the pump does not overheat.

    TROUBLESHOOTING CHECKLIST (CAUTION: SHUT OFF POWER TO PUMP) Check the following before requesting service or repair. PROBLEMS & POSSIBLE CAUSES 20. Light Flashes “No Water” or “Failure” * This normally indicates that the pump has no water, either because the tank is empty or the pump has “lost prime” – run dry. This is normal if the tank is empty, or the pipe has an airlock in it, or the suction pipe has a leak in it and it has let air into the suction pipe.
