connected properly to power source, and that the green lead of power cord (See wiring
diagram), is connected to a valid ground, momentarily energize the pump, observing the
directions of kick back due to starting torque. Rotation is correct if kick back is in the
opposite direction of rotation arrow on the pump casing. If rotation is not correct,
switching of any two power leads other than ground will provide the proper rotation.
