INSTALLATION
Hazardous voltage. Can shock, burn or cause death. Do not use power cord to lift motor. Always use handle.
1.Pump should always stand upright on base when operating. Do not suspend pump by means of discharge hose or power cord. Keep pump inlet screen clear.
2.To install a garden hose, first install adapter provided with pump.
NOTICE: To keep friction as low as possible, hose must be 5/8" or larger. Keep hose as short as possible.
3.If, in your application, backflow is a problem when the pump stops, prevent it by installing a 1” NPT check valve in the pump discharge.
4.Power Supply: Pump is designed for 115V., 60 HZ. operation and requires an individual branch circuit of
15 amperes or more capacity. It is supplied with a
Risk of sudden starts. Can result in an elec- trical shock or the pinching of hands or tools. The pump motor is equipped with automatic resetting thermal protec- tor and may restart unexpectedly. Protector tripping is indi- cation of motor overloading as a result of operating pump at high pressure, excessively high or low voltage, inade- quate wiring, incorrect motor connections, or a defective motor or pump.
