READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY
BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO INSTALL,
OPERATE, OR SERVICE OUR LITTLE GIANT PRODUCT. KNOW THE
PRODUCT'S APPLICATION, LIMITATIONS, AND POTENTIAL HAZARDS.
PROTECT YOURSELF AND OTHERS BY OBSERVING ALL SAFETY
INFORMATION. FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH THESE INSTRUCTIONS
COULD RESULT IN PERSONAL INJURY AND/OR PROPERTY DAMAGE!
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
Shut off electrical power at fuse box before
making any connections. If the electrical power
disconnect is out-of-sight, lock it in the open position and tag it to
prevent unexpected application of power.
1. Check the pump label for proper voltage required. Do not connect to
voltage other than that shown.
2. If pump is supplied with a 3-pronge electrical plug, the third prong is
to ground the pump to prevent possible electrical shock hazard.
DO NOT REMOVE the third prong from the plug. If the plug is cut-
off or the cord is shortened, this action will void the warranty.
OPERATION
1. This is NOT a submersible pump. DO NOT allow water or water
spray to enter the motor housing. Water level should not exceed 3".
2. Pump should be positioned as far from cooler pads or water source
as possible to prevent water damage to the pump motor.
3. Ensure that the pump is sized to match the CFM air flow of the
cooler, per below chart.

4. The cooler pump is designed for use with many existing evaporative
cooling units. If the evaporative cooler's mounting bracket does not
fit this pump, a piece of metal strap can be attached by removing a
single screw located on the top cover. The pump must be attached
by some means to prevent the pump from falling over and allowing
water to enter the motor housing. Observe method of mounting and
install replacement in same manner as original pump.
5. An additional screen or strainer around the pump base will help prevent
particles or debris from clogging the impeller or discharge line.
6. Route the power supply cord of the pump in same manner as was
done in the original installation.
SERVICE INSTRUCTIONS
MAKE CERTAIN THAT THE UNIT IS
DISCONNECTED FROM THE POWER SOURCE
BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO SERVICE OR REMOVE ANY COMPONENT!
1. This motor is permanently lubricated. Oiling is not required.
2. Periodically remove the bottom plate which is pressed onto the
pump base. Lightly clean any corrosion or debris which may clog
the impeller or pump cavity. Make sure the O-ring is positioned in
bottom plate before re-installing.
3. Turn the impeller by hand to make sure it turns freely. Set pump
down so you are not touching pump and impeller is not touching
anything. Plug the unit into GFCI circuit for 10 seconds to see if the
impeller turns; a) If it is rotating and GFCI did not trip, un-plug unit
and install parts in reverse order in which they were removed. b) If it
does not rotate, if pump is tripping circuit breakers, or not operating
properly after cleaning, the pump should be replaced with a new
unit. DO NOT attempt repairs yourself.
4. Be certain power cord is in good condition and contains no nicks or cuts.
