  SAFETY INFORMATION

  DANGER: 

1.   Always disconnect power source before performing any work on 

or near the motor or its connected load.  If the power disconnect 

point is out-of-sight, lock it in the open position and tag it to 

prevent unexpected application of power.  Failure to do so could 

result in fatal electrical shock.

2.   Do not handle the pump with wet hands or when standing in 

water as fatal electrical shock could occur.  Disconnect main 

power before handling unit for ANY REASON!

3.   RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK. These pumps have not been 

investigated for use in swimming pool areas.

  WARNING:  

1.   Follow all local electrical and safety codes, as well as the 

National Electrical Code (NEC) and the Occupational Safety and 

Health Act (OSHA).

2.   Replace damaged or worn wiring cord immediately.
3.   Do not kink power cable and never allow the cable to come in 

contact with oil, grease, hot surfaces, or chemicals.

4.   Wire motor to correct supply voltage - see motor nameplate and 

wiring diagrams and check voltage of power supply.

5.   Unit must be securely and adequately electrically grounded.  

This can be accomplished by wiring the unit to a ground 

metal-clad raceway system or by using a separate ground wire 

connected to the bare metal of the motor frame or other suitable 

means.

6.   Hazardous Pressure!  Install pressure relief valve in discharge 

pipe. Release all pressure on system before working on any 

component.

7.   

Do not use to pump flammable or explosive fluids 

such as 

gasoline, fuel oil, kerosene, etc. Do not use in flammable and/or 

explosive atmospheres.

  CAUTION:  

1.   Protect the power cable from coming in contact with sharp 

objects.

2.   Be careful when touching the exterior of an operating motor - It 

may be hot enough to be painful or cause injury.

3.   Make certain that the power source conforms to the 

requirements of your equipment.

4.   Do not run pump dry.
5.   Pump and plumbing must be full of water before startup.
6.   Do not pump water which contains sand, mud, silt, or debris
NOTE: Pumps with the “UL” Mark and pumps with the “US” mark 

are tested to UL Standard UL778.CSA certified pumps are certified 

to CSA Standard C22.2 No. 108. (CUS)
