PRIMING cont.
flow does not start within five minutes, stop motor and
determine cause (see Trouble Guide on back page). Be sure
all suction and discharge valves are open when the pump is
running. Operating the pump with a closed valve in the
system can cause pump damage.
MAINTENANCE
The strainer built into the pump should be inspected and
cleaned daily. These strainers are easy to clean. Loosen the
hand knob(s) and remove the strainer cover to expose the
strainer basket. Remove the basket and clean. Inspect the
cover gasket; if damaged, replace. Install the strainer cover,
tightening hand knob by hand only. The pump seal requires
no lubrication. The electric motor has bearings and you
should refer to the motor manufacturer's instructions for
proper maintenance.
STORAGE
If your pool is deactivated until next season, care must be
taken to protect the pump-motor from damage and ex
posure. Over the winter, store the pump-motor unit in a
warm, dry location.
NOTE:
Be certain power is turned off at the control panel.
Next drain the casing by removal of both drain plugs.
Disconnect the suction and discharge lines at the union
connections, then move unit to warm, dry indoor location.

safety precautions should always be followed, including the
following:

REPLACEMENT PARTS
This unit is designed to provide maximum electrical safety.
To assure continued protection against shock hazard use
only identical factory supplied replacement parts when
servicing.
A
CAUTION
.. The performance of Marlow pumps is based upon
clear, cold, fresh water with suction conditions as shown
on the performance curve. If used to pump other liquids,
pump performance may differ from rated performance
based on the different specific gravity, temperature,
viscosity, etc. of the liquid being pumped. However, a
standard pump may not be safe for pumping all types of
liquids, such as toxic, volatile or chemical liquids, or
liquids under extreme temperatures or pressures. Please
consult Marlow catalogs as well as local codes and
general references to determine the appropriate pumps
for your particular application. Since it is impossible f�r
us to anticipate every application of a Marlow pump, 1f
you plan to use the pump for a non-swimming P?OI
application,
consult Marlow beforehand
to determine
whether such application may be proper or safe under
the circum-stances. Failure to follow these instructions
may result in personal injury, death or property damage.
WARNING:
This product can expose you to
chemicals including Lead, which is known to the
State of California to cause cancer and birth defects
or other reproductive harm.
