Operating Instructions and Parts Manual
GENERAL SAFETY INFORMATION (CONT'D)
All wiring must be performed by a qualified
electrician. The pump must be installed in compliance with
all local and national codes.
L'ensemble du câblage doit être
effectué par un électricien qualifié. La pompe doit être
installée en conformité avec toutes les lois locales et le Code national
de l'électricité.
2.
Connect this product to a grounded circuit equipped with a ground
fault circuit interruptor (GFCI) device.
3.
Before installing this product, have the electrical circuit checked by
an electrician to ensure proper grounding.
4.
Be certain the pump power source is disconnected
before installing, servicing, or maintaining the pump.
5.
Check motor voltage setting on motor end plate and
make sure the line voltage of the electrical current
supply is correct (see figure 5 on page 7).
6.
Be sure the water source and piping is clear of sand, dirt and scale.
Debris will clog pump and will void warranty.
7.
Failure to protect pump and piping from freezing could cause severe
pump and/or property damage and will void the warranty.
8.
Do not run pump dry. Follow priming instructions (see Page 8).
Pump motor is equipped with an automatic
resetting thermal protector and may restart unexpectedly. Protector
tripping is an indication of motor overheating because of operating
pump at low heads (low discharge restriction), excessively high or low
voltage, inadequate wiring, incorrect motor connections, excessive
surrounding air temperature (greater than 100° F), inadequate
ventilation, and/or defective motor or pump.
Le moteur de la pompe est doté d'un protecteur
thermique à réinitialisation automatique et pourrait redémarrer
de manière imprévue. Le déclenchement du protecteur est une
indication de surchauffe du moteur à cause d'une utilisation de la
pompe à faible hauteur de chute (restriction de faible décharge),
d'une tension excessivement haute ou basse, d'un câblage inadéquat,
d'un branchement incorrect du moteur, d'une température ambiante
excessive (supérieure à 100° F - 38° C), d'une ventilation inadéquate ou
d'une pompe ou d'un moteur défectueux.

INSTALLATION
Protect pump from the elements by installing
in a basement, garage, tool shed or pump house. Install the pump so
the center of the pump is as close as possible to the water level. Keep
installation area clear to provide access for service and maintenance.
Protect the pump against flooding and excess moisture. Failure to do so
will void warranty.
Water Sources (See Diagram on Page 3)
Drilled Well, Driven Well, Dug Well, Cistern, Lake and Springs.

PUMP PIPING INSTALLATION

Use new pipe for best results. Galvanized metal or solid plastic must be
used. When using galvanized pipe, provide independent supports for
both suction and discharge piping near the pump to avoid strain on the
pump. Minimize use of elbows and fittings to reduce friction loss. Refer to
the friction loss chart (below) for specific information.
Increase diameter of suction or discharge piping if length is over 50 feet.

SUCTION PIPING

Install foot valve or strainer screen over intake
of suction piping.
Installer un clapet de pied ou un tamis sur
l'entrée de la tuyauterie d'aspiration.
Never use pipe smaller than 2" in diameter for suction piping. The suction
pipe must be kept free of air leaks. For horizontal runs, lay pipe from the
water source so the upward slope is at least 1/4" per foot. This eliminates
trapped air. The threaded inlet of the pump is 2" NPT.
Do not install suction piping near swimming
areas.
Ne pas installer la tuyauterie d'aspiration près
des zones de baignade.

DISCHARGE PIPING

Install a 1-1/2" pipe tee in the pump discharge to allow easy priming.
Plug the end of the tee opposite the pump to allow the branch piping to
go to the spray nozzles (See Figure 1). Remove the pipe plug to fill the
pump with water for priming (See Priming Instructions on Page 6).
