General
Note: Do not lower or lift the pump by means of the motor cable.
The loose data plate supplied with the pump should be placed close to the
installation site.
12. Installing the cable plug to
the motor
To install the cable plug, proceed as follows:
1.Check that the cable is of the correct type,
cross-section and length.
2.Check that the mains on the location has
correct connection to ground.
3.Check that the motor socket is clean and dry.
4.Press the cable plug into the motor socket.
The plug will only fit one way, see fig. 6.
5.Install and tighten the four nuts, see fig. 6.
When the plug has been installed, there must
not be a clearance between the motor and the
cable plug.
13. Installing the
cable guard
To fit the cable guard, proceed as
follows:
1. Make sure that the motor lead
lies flat in the cable guard.
2. The two flaps of the cable
guard must engage with the
upper edge of the pump
sleeve, see fig. 7.
3. Fasten the cable guard to the cable
plug with the four screws supplied, see
fig. 8.

14. Piping
•
The pump should only be gripped by the
two flats at the top of the pump, as
shown in fig. 9.
•
The pump can be installed vertically or
horizontally. During operation, the pump
must always be completely submerged
in water.
•
When plastic pipe is used, a stainless
steel safety wire is recommended for
lowering and lifting the pump. Fasten
the wire to the eyelet on the pump, as
shown in fig. 10.
•
The threaded joints must be well cut
and fit together tightly to ensure that
they do not work loose.
15. Installing the Pump
Installation Depth
The dynamic water level should always be
above the pump see fig. 11.
A = Dynamic water level
B = Static Water Level
C = Minimum 3" well diameter
D = Drawdown
E = Installation depth below static
water level. Maximum 500 feet
Procedures
To install the pump, follow these steps:
1. Install the enclosed data plate sticker at
the well head.
2. Check the well for proper clearance — the
well must be at least 3" in diameter. It is
a good idea to check the well for
clearance using a plumb ring (2.95 ø x 10
in.).
3. Attach the first section of riser pipe to the
pump.
