IMPORTANT!
CLEAN THE Y-STRAINER MONTHLY TO ENSURE PEAK
PERFORMANCE. SIMPLY UNDO THE BUNG AND LET IT FLUSH OUT.
MAKE SURE YOU RE-FIT THE MESH FILTER.
TIP!
IF PUMP STARTS FREQUENTLY,
THERE IS MOST LIKELY SOMETHING
LEAKING, IT WILL NOT BE A PUMP FAULT.
ALL VSRM PUMPS
MUST HAVE A
CHECKVALVE
INSTALLED IN THE
SUCTION PIPE.
WARNING!
WARNING! VSRM PUMPS MUST NOT BE USED FOR SUCTION LIFT.

IMPORTANT RE PRESSURE SETTINGS:
The higher the Pressure setting (“Setting Pressure” on the pump control panel) the more power
you will use – set the pressure at the lowest pressure that is acceptable for the application. The recommended setting is 65% of the max
head pressure and the MAXIMUM settings is 80% of the max head pressure (refer to the label on the pump and also the table below) IF
THE PRESSURE IS SET TOO HIGH THE PUMP WILL RUN CONTINUOUSLY – this will cost you a lot of wasted power and void the warranty.
