1. Read this manual carefully. Failure to follow
these Instructions could cause serious bodily
injury and/or property damage.
2. Consult installer or licensed plumber for correct
relief valve. Install system according to local
codes.
3. Always test water from well for purity before
using. Check local health department for testing
procedure.
4. Before installing or servicing tank, BE SURE
pump electric power source is disconnected.
Release all water pressure before working on
tank or system. Release air pressure before
removing cover flange.
5. Install relief valve in pump supply line to tank,
as close to tank as possible.

Hazardous pressure. To prevent pos-
sible serious or fatal injury and/or damage to
equipment, system pressure must be less than 100
pounds per square inch (PSI) (689kPa) under any
circumstances. Failure to follow instruction can
result in tank blowup. If system discharge pressure
can exceed 100 PSI (689kPa), install a relief valve
capable of passing the full pump volume at 100
PSI (689kPa).
Do not allow pump, tank, or piping
system to freeze. Freezing can severely damage
equipment and may lead to tank explosion and
serious injury. Allowing tank to freeze voids tank
warranty.
