OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. INSTALLATION – Pump may be mounted in any
position. Intake and discharge ports are determined
by the direction of shaft rotation (refer to Dimen-
sional Drawing). Before installing, turn the pump
shaft in the direction of the operating rotation.
2. DRIVE – Belt or Direct with flexible coupling.
Belt Drive: Overtight belt load will reduce pump
bearing life. Direct Drive is recommended for oper-
ating speeds above 1750 RPM.
Direct Drive: Clearance should be left between drive
shaft and pump shaft when installing coupling.
Always mount and align pump and drive shaft before
tightening the coupling set screw.
NOTICE: If the drive pulley or coupling must be pressed
on the shaft, remove the end cover and impeller and
support the shaft from the impeller end during the press
operation. Do not hammer a pulley or coupling on the
shaft. Failure to follow the above instructions can dam-
age the pump.
3. SPEEDS – 100 RPM to the maximum shown in the
performance table. Consult the factory for operation
at speeds above those shown. For longer pump life,
operate at lowest possible speeds.
4. SELF-PRIMING – Primes at low or high speeds. For
vertical dry suction lift of 10 feet, a minimum of 800
RPM is required. Pump will produce suction lift up to
22 feet when wetted. BE SURE SUCTION LINES
ARE AIRTIGHT OR PUMP WILL NOT SELF-PRIME.
