Service and Maintenance
Routine Maintenance
This pump requires little or no service other than reasonable care and periodic cleaning of the strainer
basket.
1. Inspect the pump basket for debris by looking through the clear pump lid.
2. Turn off the power to the pump. If the pump is located below the water level, close isolation valves on
the suction and discharge sides of the pump to prevent back flow of water.
3. Remove any debris, because as the debris accumulates, it will begin to block the flow of water
through the pump. Keep the basket clean and clear to improve the performance of the pump.
4. Turn the lid's lock ring counter clockwise until it stops. Carefully remove the lid and lock ring.
5. Remove the basket and properly dispose of the debris into the trash and rinse out the basket. Check
basket for cracks, if crack is found replace basket.
6. Replace basket back into the pump, align the basket properly with the suction pipe. Then fill with
water up to the suction pipe. Clean clear cover, lid o-ring and sealing surface of the pump of any debris.
7. Replace lid with locking ring. Hand-tighten the lid to make an air-tight seal. Do not use any tools to
tighten the lid.
8. Verify that all valves have been returned to the proper position for normal operation. Turn on the
power to the pump.
Winterizing
CAUTION: The pump must be protected when freezing temperatures are expected. Allowing the
pump to freeze will cause severe damage and void the warranty.
There are two options when winterizing the pump
Option 1:
1. Drain all the water from the pump, system equipment, and piping.
2. Remove drain plugs. Do not replace plugs. Store the plugs in the empty strainer basket for winter.
3. Keep the motor covered and dry.
