SUBMERSIBLE PUMPS

BEFORE INSTALLING PUMP, BE SURE TO READ 
THIS OWNER’S MANUAL CAREFULLY.

 Fill pump with water before starting 

or pump will be damaged. The motor on this pump 
is guaranteed by the manufacturer and in event of 
failure it must be returned to an authorized service 
station for repairs. Motor warranty is void if repairs 
aren’t made by an authorized repair station.

INSPECT THE SHIPMENT

Examine the pump when it is received to be sure there 
has been no damage in shipping. Should any be evident, 
report it immediately to the dealer from whom the pump 
was purchased. Please check the pump package to see 
that it includes pump, motor, and motor leads (if your 
pump purchase includes a motor).
