The Little Giant pump you have purchased is of the highest quality workmanship and
material, and has been engineered to give you long and reliable service. Little Giant

INSTALL, OPERATE, OR SERVICE YOUR LITTLE GIANT PUMP. KNOW THE
PUMP'S APPLICATION, LIMITATIONS, AND POTENTIAL HAZARDS. PROTECT
YOURSELF AND OTHERS BY OBSERVING ALL SAFETY INFORMATION.
FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH THESE INSTRUCTIONS COULD RESULT IN
PERSONAL INJURY AND/OR PROPERTY DAMAGE!
DESCRIPTION
This is a magnetic-drive, submersible, statuary fountain pump. It has an epoxy-
encapsulated motor and a thermoplastic housing. A permanent magnet is attached
to the impeller and acts as the rotor would in a conventional motor.
SAFETY GUIDELINES
MAKE CERTAIN THAT THE UNIT IS DISCONNECTED FROM THE POWER
SOURCE BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO SERVICE OR REMOVE ANY COMPONENT.
Do not use to pump flammable or explosive fluids such as gasoline, fuel oil,
kerosene, etc. Do not use in explosive atmospheres. Pump should only be used with
clean water. Do not use to pump heated liquids.
Do not handle pump with wet hands or when standing on a wet or damp surface
or in water.
This pump is supplied with a grounding conductor and/or grounding type attachment
plug. To reduce the risk of electric shock, be certain that it is connected to a properly
grounded grounding type receptacle.
Support pump and piping when assembling and when installed. Failure to do so may
cause piping to break, pump or motor to fall, etc.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
1. Check the pump label for proper voltage required. Do not connect to voltage
other than that shown.
2. This pump is supplied with a 3-prong electrical plug. The third prong grounds
the pump to prevent possible electrical shock hazard. DO NOT REMOVE the third
prong from the plug. A separate branch circuit is recommended. Do not use an
extension cord.
3. The National Electric Code requires that a ground fault circuit interrupter
(GFCI) be used in the branch circuit supplying fountain pumps and other pond
equipment.
4. To reduce the risk of electric shock, use only on portable, self-contained
fountains no larger than five feet in any dimension.
CONSULT INSTRUCTION SHEET ILLUSTRATIONS FOR PROPER ASSEMBLY AND
DISASSEMBLY OF YOUR PUMP.
1. Operate the pump in clean, fresh water completely submerged. Do not let the
pump run dry.
2. The pump can be placed in any position. There are suction cup feet provided
with the pump. To install the suction cups, wet the ends and slide them into the
slots on the bottom of the pump housing.
3. Support the weight of the pump adequately. DO NOT support the pump by the
discharge connection.
4. Adjust the flow rate by turning the flow control located on the front of the pump.
To reduce the flow rate further, place a valve on the discharge side of the pump
or, if flexible tubing is used, a clamp on the tubing.
5. If the pump will be idle for an extended period, clean it according to the SERVICE
INSTRUCTIONS section.
SERVICE INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING: Disconnect the pump from the power source before attempting to
service or remove any component.
WARNING: Do not modify, cut, saw, sand, or grind any part of the pump. Doing so
can cause harmful emissions.

OPERATION
CAUTION: Consult instruction sheet illustrations for proper assembly and
disassembly of your pump.
NOTE: This pump is permanently lubricated. Oiling is not required.
1. Remove the front plate/screen (1) by gently squeezing its sides and pulling it
from the main body.
2. Turn the volute plate (2) 1/8-turn counter-clockwise (gently using pliers, if
necessary) and remove it from the pump body.
3. The shaft/impeller assembly (3), and rubber mounting end cups (4) may also
come out with the volute plate. If not, remove the shaft/impeller assembly, then
check for two rubber end cups, which should be located on each end of the
shaft. One of the cups may remain inside the pump body impeller cavity and the
other may remain inside the volute plate. If so, make sure they are still there when
reassembling the pump.
4. Use a small brush or stream of water to clean any corrosion or debris from the
impeller, shaft, and the impeller cavity.
5. Reassemble the parts in reverse order.
6. Inspect the power cord to ensure that it is in good condition and has no nicks
or cuts.
7. If, after servicing, the pump trips its circuit breaker or GFCI, or otherwise does
not operate properly, replace pump.
