fire, separation, severe bodily injury and/or property
damage. Before removing trap cover:
1. Stop pump before proceeding.
2. Close gate valves in suction and discharge
pipes.
3. Release all pressure from pump and piping
system.
4. If pump is being pressure tested, be sure
pressure has been released before removing
trap cover.
Risk of fire and burns. Motors run at
high temperatures. To reduce the risk of fire, do
not allow leaves, debris, or foreign matter to collect
around the pump motor. To avoid burns when
handling the motor, let it cool for 20 minutes before
trying to work on it. An automatic internal cutoff
switch protects the motor from heat damage during
operation.
priming the pump
Release all pressure from filter, pump, and piping
system; see the filter owner's manual.

and discharge valves are open.
If pump is not in a flooded suction system, unscrew
and remove trap cover (L); fill trap and pump with
water. See Figure 8.
Do not lubricate the trap cover O-ring. The original
equipment O-ring contains a permanent internal
lubricant.
NOTICE: If you replace the O-ring with a non-
internally lubricated O-ring, you may need to apply
a silicone-based lubricant (not included).
Hazardous Suction.
