MAINTENANCE

Risk of electric shock. Can burn or cause death. Disconnect the power before servicing, repairing, or working on pump.

The pump’s motor is completely sealed in the motor housing and does not require any service. Disassembly of the motor housing or modification or removal of the power cord voids the warranty. The power cord is non- replaceable.

Never run the pump dry! Running the pump dry can damage the seal, causing leakage. This pump is a sub- mersible type and must be in water at all times for prop- er operation and cooling.

Periodically clean the pump inlet. This will avoid impeller rotation being hampered by any debris.

2.Remove baseplate by turning in direction of OPEN arrow. Clean out inlet.

3.Remove screw holding volute base to pump housing.

4.Turn volute base in direction of OPEN arrow and remove. Clean out impeller.

To reinstall, reverse above directions. Be sure to replace O-Ring and engage volute base tabs with pump housing before replacing screw.
