Restart: Make sure that the suction line is not obstructed, and that it is connected to a water source.

Press and hold the ‘Restart’ button for 5 seconds.

The ‘Pump on’ LED should light up, and

The ‘Failure’ LED should go off.

If flow is adequate, the pump will operate until sev- eral seconds after it reaches the set-point pressure and the flow stops.

LUBRICATION

The motor is lubricated at the factory for the life of the bearings. The pump seal is water cooled and self lubricating.

TROUBLESHOOTING

PUMP SERVICE

Hazardous voltage. Can shock, burn, or cause death. Unplug the pump and controller before servicing them. Do not handle the pump or controller or attempt to work on the pump with wet hands or while standing on a wet or damp floor.

The motor has an auto-reset thermal overload protector. If the motor overheats, the overload will cut off the power to prevent damage and will reset after the motor cools. If the overload trips repeatedly, check the pump for the cause (low voltage, a clogged impeller, etc.).
