GENERAL SAFETY INFORMATION
Electrically powered utility pumps normally give many years of
1.Know the pump application, limitations, and poten- tial hazards.
2.Do not use in water where fish are present.
3.Disconnect the power before servicing.
4.Release all the pressure within the system before ser- vicing any component.
5.Drain all the water from the system before servicing.
6.Secure the discharge line before starting the pump. An unsecured discharge line will whip, possibly causing personal injury and/or property damage.
7.Check hoses for a weak or worn condition before each use, making certain that all connections are secure.
8.Periodically inspect the pump and the system com- ponents. Keep free of debris and foreign objects. Perform routine maintenance as required.
9.Provide a means of pressure relief for pumps whose discharge line can be

1.Set the pump on a hard surface in at least 2 inches of water.
2.Connect the discharge line with the fittings provided.
3.The pump should not be installed on clay, dirt, mud or sand surfaces. Although the pump will usually pass small particles suspended in water, clean the area to be pumped of small stones and gravel which could clog the pump.
*NOTICE: Grass, mud, sand or pea gravel can clog the pump and reduce it’s performance. Keep the pump inlet screen clean.
4.To reduce motor noise and vibrations when using rigid pipe, a short length of rubber hose (e.g. radiator hose) can be connected into the discharge line near the pump using suitable clamps.
5.Power Supply: These pumps are designed for 115 V., 60 Hz., operation and requires a minimum 15 amp individual branch circuit. Pump is supplied with a
