2.The pump will not remove all water. On a flat surface Model Nos. 2300, 2305, and 2310 will pump down to within 1/8" of the pumping surface. Model No. 2355 will pump down to within 5/8" of the pumping surface.

NOTICE: For long cycle times, the pump must be submerged to prevent the motor from overheating. A fully submerged pump is preferred for proper cooling when a pump runs for a long time.

AIRLOCKS

When a pump airlocks, it runs but does not move any water. An airlock will cause the pump to overheat and fail. The pumps have a built in anti-airlock hole. See Figure 1 for the location of the hole. Water leakage from the anti- airlock hole is normal.

If you suspect an airlock, unplug the pump, clean out the anti-airlock hole with a paper clip or a piece of wire, and restart the pump.
