INTRODUCTION

Please read our instructions before installing and using your
pump. This will help you obtain the full benefits of the qual-
ity and convenience built into this equipment. It will also
help you avoid any needless service expense resulting from
causes beyond our control which are not covered by our
warranty.

1. Read the Owners Manual and Rules for Installation and

Safe Operation carefully. Failure to follow these Rules and
Instructions could cause serious bodily injury, and/or
property damage.

2. Check your local electrical wiring codes before installa-

tion. If your local codes are not followed, your pump will
not work to its full rated capacity and could present a fire
hazard. If in doubt, contact your local power company.

3.

BE SURE

your pump installation meets all local plumb-

ing, pump and well codes.

4. While installing your pump, always keep the well covered

to prevent leaves and foreign matter from falling into the
well, contaminating the water and/or causing possible se-
rious damage to the mechanical operation of the pump.

5. Always test the water from well for purity before using.

Check with local health department for testing proce-
dure.

6. Before installing or servicing your pump, 

BE SURE

pump

power source is disconnected.

7. BE SURE your pump electrical circuit is properly

grounded.

8. Complete pump and piping system 

MUST

be protected

against below freezing temperature. Allowing the pump
or piping to freeze could cause severe damage and voids
the Warranty.

9.

BE SURE

the line voltage and frequency of the electrical

current supply agree with the motor wiring as shown on
motor nameplate.

10. The correct fusing and wiring sizing is essential to proper

motor operation. Recommended fusing and wire size data
is in the manual (Page 5).

11. Pump water only with this pump.

12. Periodically inspect pump and system components.

Motor normally operates at high temperature
and will be too hot to touch. It is protected

from heat damage during operation by an automatic inter-
nal cutoff switch. Before handling pump or motor, stop
motor and allow it to cool for 20 minutes.
