Davey X201 Installation And Operating Instructions

Priming and Operation
1. Fill the pump body with water at the priming hole adjacent to the delivery
outlet.
2. Replace priming plug and switch on.
3. Open gate valve in pump outlet to allow air from suction line to be expelled.
With long suction lines it may be necessary to reprime the pump more
than once.
4. Once prime has been established a strong flow of water out of the pump
will be evident. Adjust valve to required flow rate.
Spear Point Installations
The pumping capacity of your Dynaprime may need to be adjusted to match
the water supply available from your bore. This should be done by closing
the gate valve in the pump outlet until the flow to the sprinklers is equal to the
water available to the spear point.
Be sure to choose the correct spear point to suit your water supply.
Note: If this pump is allowed to continually pump water
containing sand or other abrasive material, the effective life of
the pump will be shortened.
Trouble Shooting Check List
a) Motor runs when switched on but does not pump or pumps poorly
1. Suction line and pump body not filled with water.
2. Air leaks in suction lines or suction pipe not under water.
3. Air trapped in suction lines (due to uneven rise in piping; eliminate
humps and hollows).
4. No water at source or water level too low.
5. Valve on suction lines closed.
6. Check valve installed in wrong direction.
7. Suction lift too high.
8. Blocked impeller.
b) Motor doesn't start when switched on
1. Power not connected.
2. Supply voltage too low.
3. "Over temperature" cut-out tripped.*
4. Motor not free to turn eg a jammed impeller.
5. Internal motor fault.
Note: For protection, the Davey pump motor is fitted with an
automatic "over temperature" cut-out. Constant tripping of this
overload device indicates a problem eg low voltage at pump,
motor overloaded.

NOTE: For protection, the Davey pump motor is fitted with an
automatic reset thermal overload, constant tripping of this overload
indicates a problem e.g. low voltage at pump, excessive temperature
(above 50°C) in pump enclosure.
WARNING: Automatic reset thermal overloads will allow the pump to
restart without warning. Always disconnect the pump motor from the
electrical supply before maintenance or repairs.
WARNING: When servicing or attending pump, always ensure power
is switched off and lead unplugged. Electrical connections should be
serviced only by qualified persons.
Care should also be taken when servicing or disassembling pump to
avoid possible injury from hot pressurised water. Unplug pump, relieve
pressure by opening a tap on the discharge side of the pump and allow
any hot water in the pump to cool before attempting to dismantle.
IMPORTANT:
DO NOT USE petroleum based fluids or solvents
(e.g. Oils, Kerosene, Turpentine, Thinners, etc) on the plastic pump
components or seal components.
WARNING: Do not use hydrocarbon based or hydrocarbon propelled
sprays around the electrical components of this pump.
In accordance with AS 3350.2.41 we are obliged to inform you that this pump is
not to be used by children or infirm persons and must not be used as a toy by
children.
