INSTALLATION
Models PC1 and PC2 include a six foot long suction hose, a water
suction attachment, and a replacement parts kit which includes: impeller,
gasket, shaft seal, and two motor brushes (PC2 only, brushes are not
designed to be replaced on PC1).
Always disconnect power source before
attempting to install, service, or maintain the
pump. Never handle a pump with wet hands or when standing on wet or
damp surface or in water. Fatal electrical shock could occur.
1. A ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) is required for Model PC2.
Risk of electrical shock! This pump is supplied
with a grounding conductor and grounding type
attachment plug. A grounded receptacle in conformance with current
NEC and local codes must be used (See Figure 1). Do not use model PC2,
115 V Transfer Pump in swimming pool areas.
2. Model PC1 operates on 12V DC only. Model PC2 operates on
115V only. Voltage and current of power supply must match the
requirements of the pump. Model PC1 has color-coded battery
clamps for 12V operation. Model PC1 requires 14 amps at 12 VDC.
3. Never use an extension cord to power this unit.
Risk of fatal electrical shock. Never cut off the
round grounding prong. Cutting the cord or plug
will void the warranty and make the pump inoperable.
4. Use a strainer when pumping from a creek, pond, or source where
foreign objects may be sucked into the pump. The strainer should
prevent solids from entering the inlet line.
5. A regular garden hose may be used as a discharge line.
6. The inlet or suction hose should not be longer than 15 feet; and the
vertical distance between the pump and the water level should not
be any higher than 10 feet. The maximum discharge height is 30
feet.
7. At times, an overload due to overheating, low voltage, jammed
impeller, etc. may shut the pump off. Unplug or turn off the pump
