Never make any connections in the
pump terminal box unless the
electricity supply has been switched
off for at least 5 minutes.
Risk of electric shock:
This pump is supplied with a grounding
conductor and grounding type
attachment plug. To reduce the risk of
electric shock, install only on circuit
protected by a Ground-Fault-Circuit-
Interrupter (GFCI).
This pump is not intended, nor has it
been investigated for use in swimming
pool or marine areas.
This pump has been evaluated for use
with water only.
Do not start the pump until it has been
filled with water (primed, see fig. 14).
The operating voltage and frequency are marked on
the nameplate. Make sure that the motor is suitable
for the electricity supply on which it will be used.

9.1 Generator or inverter

NOTICE
The MQ can be powered by a generator
or an inverter. However, the pump will
only operate satisfactorily if the
generator or inverter generates a true
sinusoidal wave with the necessary
power and voltage input. The generator
must be sized 10 % above the P1
(input power) of the pump. For P1,
see section 12.1 Dimensions.
