SERVICE AND MAINTENANCE
The pump cover should occasionally be removed to clean and inspect the impeller assembly. The impeller is the only service-
able item and can be pulled out of the body . Do not take the impeller apart. If it is worn or broken the entire impeller assembly
should be replaced. This will restore the pump to original capacity. Pumps taken out of service for an extended period with fluid
inside run the risk of forming a crust which may prevent subsequent starting. Saltwater should be flushed out with fresh water.
Always check cord for sharp bends which can cause premature cracking. Do not use power cord to lift or move pump. Other
than Impeller maintenance, this appliance has no user serviceable parts.
Magnet impeller assembly must be routinely cleaned to remove accumulations of scale or calcium. This procedure should be
done at least once every three months - or more often if the water conditions require it. Salt water and hard water environ-
ments require more frequent cleaning.

3) Position pump with volute inlet facing upwards
4) Pour PumpGuard into volute inlet until full.
5) Allow to soak for 2 to 3 minutes.
6) Thoroughly rinse with clean water.
7) Place pump back into service.
CAUTION
The pump is intended to pump water only. It cannot be used to pump oil, solvents, or gasoline. Although the
pump will continue to run if there is no water, after 30 minutes damage may occur if allowed to run dry.
ELECTRICAL PRECAUTIONS
:
WARNING
- Risk of electric shock - This pump is supplied with a grounding conductor
and grounding-type attachment plug. To reduce the risk of electric shock, be certain that it is connected only to a properly
grounded, grounding-type receptacle. Always use a properly grounded outlet. Do not immerse plug in water.
DO NOT
REACH INTO WATER TO REMOVE PLUG
. TURN OFF CIRCUIT FIRST. A “drip loop” should be provided. The “drip loop” is a loop in
the cord below the level of the receptacle or plug that prevents water from traveling along the cord. The National Electric
Code requires that a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) be installed in the branch circuit supplying fountain or pond
equipment. Your dealer can supply GFCI units.
NEVER REMOVE GROUND PIN FROM PLUG
.
WARNING: FOR YOUR PROTEC-
TION ALWAYS UNPLUG THE UNIT FROM ITS POWER SOURCE BEFORE INSTALLING OR SERVICING. SHOULD THE UNIT APPEAR TO
BE NOT WORKING DO NOT REACH, REMOVE OR DISASSEMBLE BEFORE YOU DISCONNECT POWER

9.5, 12 & 18 PUMPS
ITEM # 02710, 02712, 02718, 02720, 02722 & 02728
FEATURES
The pump is a magnetically driven centrifugal water pump. It has no seals to wear and contains no oil. The pump can be used
submerged or inline. Inline means connections are made directly to the pump inlet and outlet ports, which have 3/4 " NPT
threads. All electrical components are encapsulated in epoxy. The energy used is approximately 1/2 of regular driven pumps.
The prefilter is provided for use in situations where debris in the water could clog or damage the pump. This helps to give
uninterrupted service.
INLINE PIPING
Centrifugal pumps cannot pull water from a lower level. In order to start, pump must be below water level and filled with water.
Unless the air can escape from the outlet, the pump will not start. Do not use glues or solvents to connect the pumps threaded
fittings. Use Teflon pipe tape. The pump cover is not designed to support long pipe runs or to correct pipe misalignment.
