WARNING - ELECTRICAL PRECAUTIONS
All wiring, electrical connections, and system grounding must
comply with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and with any
local codes and ordinances. Employ a licensed electrician.
For non-thermally protected motors use with approved motor
control that matches motor input in full load amperes with
overload element(s) selected or adjusted in accordance with
control instructions.
This pump is suitable for installations where the vertical distance from the pump to the water level does not exceed 25 ft.
In all installations, friction losses in the suction pipe must be taken into consideration.
PUMP LOCATION: The pump should be installed in a clean, dry
and ventilated location which provides adequate drainage and
room for servicing and protection from freezing temperatures. It
should be bolted down evenly on a good foundation, preferably
concrete, to prevent the development of unnecessary stress.
Locating the pump as close as possible to the source of water
supply reduces the friction losses in the suction pipe and
provides for maximum capacities.
SUCTION PIPE: It is recommended that only new clean pipe
or hose be used and the size be the same as that of the pump

WARNING - RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK
•
Have an electrician provide electrical power to the motor.
•
Motor must be grounded and terminal cover in place to reduce
electrical shock hazard.
•
Keep motor operating area as dry as possible.
•
A ground fault interrupter (GFI) protected circuit is recommended
for use with any electrical device operating near water.
•
Always disconnect power before servicing.
•
Not investigated for use in swimming pool areas.

suction tapping. A check valve is recommended to ensure
easier priming. If the pump is installed any appreciable distance
away from the source of water supply, the suction pipe should
be increased by one size. The suction pipe must always slope
upwards from the water source to the pump to avoid air pockets
in the line. In cases where the pump has to be reprimed often
and it is not necessary that a lot of water be delivered, it is
advisable to use a 90° or 45° elbow on the suction line. This
enables the pump to prime sooner and also prevents kinking of
the hose. In cases where a maximum volume of water is required
