SAFETY GUIDELINES
WARNING: 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.
WARNING - RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK
Have an electrician provide electrical power to motor. A ground fault
circuit interrupter (GFCI) protected circuit is recommended for use with
any electrical device operating near water.
For recommended cable size see Table 1.
WARNING: This equipment must not be used by children or persons
with reduced physical, sensory or mental abilities, or lacking in
experience and expertise, unless supervised or instructed. Children
may not use the equipment, nor may they play with the unit or in the
immediate vicinity.
WARNING: If the power cord is damaged, it must only be replaced by
qualified personnel.
Motor must be grounded and terminal cover in place to reduce
electrical shock hazard.
Keep motor operating area as dry as possible.
Always disconnect power before servicing.
Not investigated for use in swimming pool areas.
VOLTAGE SETTING INSTRUCTIONS
To change the pump voltage from the factory setting of 230 volts,
a qualified electrician should:
1. Disconnect power supply to pump
2. Remove the cover from the motor terminal box
3. Slide the voltage switch from 230 V to 115 V, as shown in Figure 1
4. Reassemble the terminal box cover.

The shallow well jet pump is ideal for the supply of fresh water to rural
homes, farms, and cabins. This pump is suitable for installations where
the vertical distance from the pump to the water level does not exceed
25 ft (7.6 m), including drawdown (less at high altitudes).
In offset installations, friction losses in the suction pipe must be taken
into consideration. (Refer to Table 2, Friction Loss).
Pump Location: Install the pump in a clean, dry, ventilated location that
provides adequate room for servicing and protection from freezing
temperatures. It should be bolted to a good foundation (preferably
concrete) and provided with adequate drainage. Locating the pump as
close as possible to the water source will reduce the friction in the
suction pipe and ensure maximum capacities.
Suction Pipe: Use only new, clean 1-1/4" pipe or hose. If the pump is
installed any appreciable distance away from the source of water, the
suction pipe should be increased to 1-1/2". Horizontal lengths of pipe
must gradually slope upwards from the source of water to the pump to
avoid air pockets in the line. Thread compound should be used on all
pipe joints and connections should be thoroughly tightened. Install a
foot valve and check its operation because a leak will prevent proper
operation of the system. Make sure the foot valve is located so that it
will be submerged at all times. If a sandpoint or driven well is used,
install a check valve next to the pump suction instead of the foot valve
(Figure 6). All installations must have a foot valve or a check valve
in the suction pipe.
Pump to Tank Fittings: The discharge pipe from the pump to the tank
should be as short and direct as possible and should be the same size
as that of the pump discharge tapping. A check valve should never be
installed between the pump and the tank.
Service Line: Connect the service line as shown in Figures 4 - 7. The size
of the service line required is governed entirely by the amount of water
needed and the length of the pipe. The pipe selected should be large
enough so that the friction loss (determined from Table 2, Friction Loss)
will never exceed 20 ft (6m) head.
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.
WARNING - RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK
Wiring: Employ an electrician to do the wiring and connect the
electrical service to the pump.
The pressure switch is wired to the motor at the factory and the
voltage for which the motor is wired is indicated by a sticker where
applicable. Make sure the motor is wired for the same voltage as the
power supply. Refer to the motor nameplate or inside terminal cover for
voltage changing instructions. The power lines should be connected
to the pressure switch terminals marked L1 and L2 (Figure 2). It is
