TOOL USE AND CARE
1.
Do not alter any parts of the tool. All parts and accessories are designed with built-in safety
features that may be compromised if altered.
2.
Make certain that the power source conforms to the requirements of your equipment.
3.
When wiring an electrically driven device, follow all electrical and safety codes, as well as the
most recent Canadian Electrical Code (CE) and the Canadian Centre for Occupational Health
and Safety (CCOHS).
4.
Always disconnect cables from the power source prior to repairs. Always reconnect cable to
the power source after the repairs.
UNPACKING
1.
Carefully remove the tool from the box.
2.
Inspect the parts carefully to make sure the tool was not damaged while shipping.
3.
Do not discard the packaging material until you have carefully inspected and satisfactorily
operated the tool.
WARNING! If any part is missing, do not operate the tool until the missing parts are replaced.
Failure to do so could result in serious personal injury.
INSTALLATION
CAUTION! This pump is intended to pump water only, with a maximum temperature of 40°C
(105°F). Do not pump heated liquids.
CAUTION! The motor housing transfers heat to the volute. This pump is capable of operating with
the motor housing partially exposed for extended periods, while still providing sufficient motor
cooling and bearing lubrication. However, for the best cooling and longest motor life, the level of
the liquid being pumped should normally be above the top of the motor housing.
1.
Place the pump on a hard, level surface in a suitable, gas-tight basin that is at least 11 in.
(28 cm) diameter and 18 in. (46 cm) deep (see figure 1).
NOTE: Never place the pump directly on clay, earth, or gravel surfaces.
2.
Install the pump with ABS, PVC, polyethylene, or galvanized steel pipe. Use the proper
adapters to connect plastic pipe to the pump.
3.
Install a check valve in the discharge line to prevent the backflow of liquid into the basin. The
check valve should be free-flow valve that will easily pass solids.
CAUTION! For the best performance when handling solids, install the check valve
horizontally or at an angle of no more than 45°. Do not install the check valve vertically
because solids may settle in the valve and prevent it from opening on start-up.
4.
When using a check valve, drill a 1/8 in. (3.175 mm) or 3/16 in. (4.8 mm) diameter relief hole
in the discharge pipe below the floor line between the pump discharge and the check valve.
Otherwise, the pump could air lock and will not pump water even though the pump will run.
