Installation

WARNING

In any installations where property damage and/or personal injury might result from an inoperative or leaking pump due to power outages, discharge line blockage, or any other reason, a backup system(s) should be used. In order to safely use this product, familiar- ize yourself with this pump and also with the liquid (chemical, etc.) that is going to be pumped through the unit. This pump is not suitable for many liquids.

1.Pump should be placed as close to source of liquid and power as possible, not more than 7 feet above liquid source and not more than 25 feet from power source.

2.Use reinforced plastic or fabric tubing or metal pipe for the suction side of the pump. This will prevent collapse of the suction piping. Discharge piping should never be larger than suction piping!

3.Attach suction line piping to the suction inlet and discharge line piping to the discharge outlet.

4.Avoid using looped sections of pipe which might permit air to become entrapped.

5.Piping should be checked for any leaks at the connections. Small leaks in suction line greatly reduce efficiency of pump and may prevent priming. Pump should be permanently mounted; never operate a pump unless it is secured to a solid foundation.

6.Do not operate pump dry. Impeller and mechanical seal damage will result.

7.Protect pump from extreme heat, cold. and humidity. This unit is not waterproof and is not intended to be used in showers, saunas, or other potentially wet locations.

8.The motor is designed to be used in a clean, dry location with access to an adequate supply of cooling air. Ambient temperature around the motor should not exceed 104°F (40°C). For outdoor installations motor must be protected by a cover that does not block airflow to and around the motor. This unit is not weatherproof, nor is it able to be submersed in water or any other liquid. Do not use in or near swimming pool or spa.

9.Install a foot valve and prime pump when suction lift is over six feet or when suction line is longer than six feet.

10.It is strongly recommended that this unit is plugged into a GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter). Consult your local electrician for installation and availability.

Operation

WARNING

1.Pumps are self-priming and should prime themselves within 30 seconds after pump is started. Wetting impeller with pumped fluid and keeping the impeller coated with petroleum jelly will lengthen its life and improve priming action. Running the impeller dry for as short as 30 seconds can ruin the impeller. Keep suction line as short as possible.

NOTE: An easy way to prime the pump (wet impeller), if using a garden hose, is to fill the discharge hose; elevate the discharge hose slightly to retain water and start

the pump. Another method would be to disconnect the discharge hose from the pump, making a U-bend of the discharge hose. Fill the hose then reconnect (without losing the water) to the pump. In both cases the water behind the impeller will seal the pump and it should prime almost immediately.

2.Unit can be turned on and off by plugging & unplugging cord into 115V outlet.

3.Do not run at heads greater than 35 feet (15psig).

CAUTION

Because unit is thermally pro- tected, it is designed to shut off temporarily in an over-heat condition; therefore, pumping extremely hot liquids is not recommended. Also, to protect the impeller from breakage, do not pump liquids with a tem- perature less than 40°F.

WARNING

Do not submerge pump or motor in water.

Maintenance

CAUTION

Make certain the unit is discon- nected from the power source before attempting to service or remove any component!

1.Always drain pump when not in use.

2.If pump is not going to be used for a month or longer, flush with fresh water and remove body cover, take impeller out, clean inside body and apply generous coating of Vaseline®, to both inside body and impeller before replacing impeller in body.
