This instruction sheet provides youwith all the information required
to safely own and operate your new Little Giant Pump. The pump
you have purchased is made of the highest quality workmanship
and material. It has been engineered to give you long and trouble
free service. Onlyminimalmaintenance of cleaning the intake screen
of debris, which restricts the intake of the pump, is required (See
part 6 of the Service section for instruction on how to perform this).
This pump has the unique design feature of having dual 1-1/4"
BSPT (GAS) discharges and has been designed to operate
waterfalls, streams, and fountainheads or just circulate the water
in your pond. The uniqueness of the dual discharges will allow the
possibility of performing two of the above tasks at the same time
without having to purchase two pumps. The pump has included
with it a cap plug that will allow one of the discharges to be closed
if the only one discharge is to be utilized. An elbow adapter is
also included to adapt from the discharge of the pump to either 1"
smooth tubing WGP-55/65 or 1-1/4" smooth tubing WGP-75/95,
depending on the model of pump chosen. The pump can either
be installed in the upright or vertical position or it can be installed
in the horizontal position lying on the base.
Little Giant pumps are carefully inspected and packaged to
insure safe operation and delivery. When you receive your
pump, examine it carefully to determine that there are no broken
or damaged parts that may have occurred during shipment. If
damage has occurred, make notation and notify the firm from
which you purchased the filter. They should assist you in repair or
replacement of the pump. If not, please do not hesitate to contact
Little Giant Customer Service at 1-888-956-0000. Please have the
model number, catalog number and serial number of the pump
before you call. This can be found on the serialized label on the
top of the pump. They should be able to assist you further.
OPERATION
1. Place pump fully submerged on a solid surface. If the surface
is dirt or sand, place pump on a flat surface such as a brick or
stone to prevent it from being clogged.
2. Conformity with local and state electric codes is mandatory.
The National Electric Code requires that a ground fault circuit
interrupter (GFCI) be used in the branch circuit supplying
sump, utility, effluent and all fountain pumps, pool pumps and
other pond equipment.
3. Do not allow unit to run dry. Damage will result and void warranty.
4. The pump is supplied with a grounding conductor and a
grounding-type attachment plug.
5. The pump motor is designed for 230 Volt/50Hz operation. Be
certain the supply voltage is the same. Motor is single voltage only.
6. The discharge on the WGP series pumps is threaded for
1-1/4" pipe.
7. The WGP-55/65 series units are supplied with a 1" barbed
elbow that is screwed into the discharge of the pump. The
WGP-75/95 unit is supplied with a 1-1/4" barbed elbow that
attaches to the discharge. Flow is reduced approximately 20%
when these elbows are used.

230V/50Hz
1. This Appliance has no user serviceable parts.The motor
housing of the pump is completely sealed and requires no
service. Disassembly of themotor housing or alteration of the
power cord voids all warranty. The power cord on these units
cannot be replaced.
2. The motor is permanently sealed without oil and contains an
automatic thermal overload protector device.
3. The unit can run continuously as long as water is pumped. If
the unit runs more than 2 to 3 minutes without pumping water,
damage to the shaft will occur.
4. Do not pump heated liquids. Maximum temperature is 35°C
(95°F). The WGP series is best suited for pumping fresh water
while completely submerged for proper cooling. The pump
can run in shallow water for short periods as long as the inlet
screen is totally submerged.
5. Be certain that volute is flooded before plugging unit in.
6. A clogged or dirty intake screen will greatly reduce performance.
If the pump is used on a dirty surface, raise it slightly to reduce
the amount of debris contacting the intake. To clean the
intake screen, first make sure the pump is unplugged from
any power source, then remove the bottom plate by placing
a finger in one of the screen holes between the plate and
intake screen. Then use your finger to "pop" the plate out
of the intake screen. This should require minimal force and
should pop out of the center of the intake. Then clear all of
the debris from intake and any other areas that need clearing.
After clearing the debris for the screen then replace the plate
by inserting the center tab on the plate into the center hole on
the intake screen and "pop" it back into place by pressing on
the center of the outside of the plate.
7. If less flow is desired restrict the discharge flow. Never restrict
the pump's intake.
8. Be certain power cord is in good condition and contains no
nicks or cuts.
9. Refer to the trouble shooting chart if the unit is not operating
properly.
10.GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS:
Device (RCD) also
Breaker (RCCB) having
exceeding 30mA must be installed in the supply circuit.
RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK – This pump is supplied with a
grounding conductor and grounding type attachment plug. To
reduce the risk of electric shock, be certain that.

Cette feuille d'instructions vous fournit les informations nécessaires
pour entretenir et faire fonctionner votre nouvelle pompe Little Giant.
La pompe que vous avez achetée a été soigneusement fabriquée
avec des matériaux de la plus haute qualité. Elle a été conçue pour
durer longtemps et nécessiter un minimum d'entretien. Seul un
entretien minimal est requis, soit nettoyer le grillage d'admission des
débris qui limitent l'alimentation de la pompe (Voir la partie 6 de la
section sur l'entretien pour obtenir des informations sur le nettoyage).
Cette pompe de conception unique a la particularité de comporter
deux tuyaux de sortie BSPT (GAS) de 3,2 cm (1-1/4 po) et a été
conçue pour faire fonctionner les chutes d'eau, les ruisseaux et les
têtes de fontaines ou pour faire circuler l'eau de votre plan d'eau.
La spécificité de ces deux tuyaux de sortie permet d'exécuter
simultanément deux des tâches mentionnées ci-dessus sans
devoir acheter deux pompes. La pompe comporte un cache-fiche
qui permet de fermer une des sorties si seulement un tuyau de
sortie doit être utilisé. Un adaptateur en coude est également inclus
pour que la sortie de la pompe puisse s'adapter à un tuyau lisse de
2,5 cm (1 po) WGP-55/65 ou de 3 cm (1 ¼ po) WGP-75/95, selon
le modèle de pompe choisie.
