IMPORTANT: SELECT CORRECT VOLTAGE
Disconnect pump from power source before changing the pump
voltage. To change the voltage, the selector switch is located
underneath the plastic cover on top of the motor. To access
the switch, remove the eight screws holding the plastic cover.
To change the voltage setting, slide the switch as shown until
desired voltage is visible on the switch. The voltage number that
appears is the voltage setting for the pump. Be sure the switch
is completely engaged. Replace the capacitor cover and secure
the cover with the eight screws.

source before servicing or
handling pump.
Be sure that incoming power
supply is same as voltage
selector switch setting.
To change voltage settings
slide switch as shown
until desired voltage is
visible on switch.
Be sure switch is completely
engaged.
Replace capacitor housing cover
and secure cover with screws.
Do not overtighten screws.

PIPING
Plastic PVC pipe is shown in the illustrations, but galvanized
steel pipe may be used if desired. All piping must be clean and
free of all foreign matter to prevent clogging. ALL JOINTS AND
CONNECTIONS IN THE WELL ASSEMBLY MUST BE AIRTIGHT. Even
a pinhole leak will prevent the proper operation of the pump
(this is the most common problem). Use thread compound on all
threaded joints unless specifi ed otherwise.
Process B. Correctly Select Your Pump
