4. Do not wrap the pump with an insulating material or enclose it so tightly that air circulation
around the pump is prevented. The pump will generate approximately the same amount of heat
as a 75 watt lightbulb.
5. The pump should be mounted in a dry location away from any heat source(s).
6. Pumphead materials are designed for use with potable water only and should never be used with
petroleum products.
7. The pump is equipped with a pressure sensing demand switch which controls the maximum
operating pressure as set at the factory. Never subject the pump to pressures above 80 PSI
maximum.
8. Always consider electrical shock hazards when working with and handling electrical equipment.
If uncertain in your abilities, please consult an electrician.
9. Both the Aquajet RV and ES Series are equipped with an automatically resetting thermal protec-
tor. If a pump is not running, it may restart at any time.
10. Both the Aquajet RV and ES Series include a fuse-holder. It is important to
use only a 15 amp
AGC automotive type fuse for the Aquajet RV Series and a 10 amp AGC fuse for the
Aquajet ES Series.
Once again, use only these types of fuses with these specific pumps.
11. It is necessary to use a screen filter between the water holding tank and the pump to prevent
debris from entering the pump. Particulate matter may cause the valves inside the pump to stick
open. This filter needs to be cleaned on a regular basis, or it will restrict water to the pump.
12.
If water is not drained from the system during freezing temperatures, damage to the
pump and the plumbing is likely:
a. Drain the water holding tank.
b. Open all faucets and run the pump to expel all water.
c. Disconnect inlet and outlet fittings and run pump to remove residual water from the pump.
d. Leave fittings disconnected from pump.
Installer qualifications:
If you intend to install either the Aquajet RV or ES Series without profes-
sional assistance, you should clearly be "handyman" competent enough to do simple low voltage
electrical wiring, crimp connectors, obtain voltage measurements, understand polarity as well as
schematics which illustrate relay connections. Additionally, you should be comfortable with water
system plumbing, installing hose clamps, using Teflon tape, and removing/re-tightening compression
fittings.
A typical Aquajet installation takes between 1 - 2 hours and requires the following:
Basic Tools: Flashlight. Voltmeter, Wire Stripper/Crimper, Standard Screwdriver,
Phillips Screwdriver, Hose cutter, Poly-grip, 8" Crescent Wrench, bucket, towels.
Depending on the RV's layout, electrical and plumbing configuration, additional hardware may be
needed for a successful pump installation.
