Please read and save these instructions. Read carefully before attempting to assemble, install, operate or maintain this pump.
Protect yourself and others by observing all safety information. Failure to comply with instructions could result in personal

Installation
Mounting -
This pump is self-priming. The pump should be located in an area that is dry and provides ventilation.
DO NOT
locate pump near combustible material. The surface temperature of the motor may exceed 121
℃
.
The pump may be mounted in any position. However, if mounting the pump vertically the pump head should be in the
down position so that in the unlikely event of a leak, fluid will not enter the motor.
Secure rubber feet with fasteners.
DO NOT
compress feet, doing so will reduce ability to isolate vibration and noise.
Electrical Connections -
If the pump is operated in an area containing flammable vapors, the wire leads must be joined by an
insulated wire connection. Inadequate wire connections can spark, resulting in explosion, property damage, injury or death.
Pump must be protected with proper size fuse as specified on the motor label.
Pump should be operated on a separate circuit.
Pump should be connected to properly sized momentary switch. This prevents pump from damage due to long periods
of dry run condition.
Switch should be near pump. This will allow operator to hear change in pump sound when tank is empty.
NOTE: For proper operation motor must rotate counterclockwise when viewed from pump end.
