Safety Instructions & Preventive Maintenance
Read this sheet and the appropriate pump instruction manual before installing and operating any
pump. Failure to follow safety instructions may result in injury or death.
These pumps utilize magnets. Any individuals with pacemakers, implanted defibrillators,
electronic medical devices, metallic heart valves, or sickle cell anemia should consult a health
care professional before working with these pumps.
Motor may become hot, exercise caution before touching. Allow the motor to cool down for a
sufficient amount of time before attempting any maintenance or handling to prevent burns or
injuries. Install pump in a well-ventilated area to facilitate heat dissipation and reduce the risk of
overheating.
The motor has the potential to present an electrical hazard. Prior to any maintenance or handling,
ensure power to the motor is OFF. If there is uncertainty about the electrical safety of the motor,
consult with a qualified electrician before proceeding with any maintenance/repairs.
Pumps may be heavy, use caution when lifting and/or relocating a pump.
Unpack the pump and/or parts and check for signs of shipping damage. If damage is detected take
pictures and contact the carrier. Check that all ordered parts are included.
Remove all labels and stickers from all wet end part surfaces that come into contact with the liquid
(impeller, shaft, thrust washer, housing(s), etc...). Do not remove labels on the motor, and/or exterior
of the pump. Do not remove labels from the exterior of marine pumps.
For stainless steel pumps, the impeller, thrust washer, and shaft are packed separately.
