energize the pump, and you will have to re-prime the 
system.  Once the pump is turned on it may take several 
minutes to remove all of the air from the system.  On 
installations with long suction piping, you may have to 
add water several times to complete the priming process.
 

DEEP WELL PUMPS
Priming the pump means filling the pump, suction piping, 
and drive water piping with water.  Priming is completed 
when you start the pump, and all the air is removed from 
the piping system, but before you energize the pump you 
must manually fill the pump and piping with water.  Deep 
well installations require a complete prime before starting 
the pump.  If you used one of the side discharge 
connections on the pump, you can easily fill the pump 
and piping with water through the 1” top port.  If you 
installed the control valve in the top discharge port, you 
can prime the pump through the 1” priming hole in the top 
of the valve.  You will need to provide a priming tee if you 
used the top discharge port but did not install the control 
valve there.   Fill the pump with water until full.  All 
horizontal offset piping should slope up from the well to 
the pump to ensue that it is filled with water.  Plug the 
priming hole.  Perform the “ADJUSTING THE CONTROL 
VALVE” procedure listed below.  Once the pump is 
turned on it may take several minutes to remove all of the 
air from the system.  On installations with long suction 
and drive water piping, you may have to add water 
several times to complete the priming process.

ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION

WARNING

 Hazardous voltage can 

shock, burn or cause death.

CAUTION

 If you are not sure of 

proper electrical connections, consult a 
licensed electrician.

CAUTION

 Improper wiring can 

result in permanent damage to the 
motor. All electrical wiring should meet 
the local electrical code.

NOTICE:

READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS!

Pump connection must comply with National Electric 
Code (NEC) or Canadian Electric Code (CEC), and all 
applicable local codes.
All dual voltage units come factory preset for 230 
volts. (Figure 6)
Disconnect power at electrical panel before making any 
electrical connections or changes.
Supply voltage must be +/- 10% of motor nameplate 
voltage. Low or high voltage can damage the motor and 
will void the warranty.
If possible, connect pump to dedicated branch circuit with 
no other appliances on it.

Do not operate pump unless pump is grounded.

VOLTAGE CHANGE

NOTE: 

To change the motor voltage(Figure 6) unplug the 

dual voltage plug on the motor and reconnect it in the 
position required to match the supply voltage. The motor 
can be set for 115 volts or 230 volts. The voltage setting 
of the motor can be determined by looking at the 
alignment of the arrow on the plug and the arrow on the 
motor terminal board (located under the motor’s end 
cover). Any questions as to which voltage setting is 
required for proper motor and pump operation in your 
system should be directed to an electrical professional. 
The factory preset is 230 volts.

NOTICE: 

Check motor terminal cover or nameplate for 

wiring instructions. The essential pump motor facts are as 
follows:
1. 3450 RPM
2. Single Phase
3. Dual Voltage, 115/230
4. 1/2, 3/4, 1, and 1-1/2 Horsepower motors are wired for 
230 volts as a factory standard.
NOTE: All wiring is subject to official inspection and must 
conform to the local electrical code. Install a circuit 
breaker or fused disconnect switch near the pump. 
Remove the cover from the pressure switch. Connect the 
incoming power wires to the LINE terminals and the 
green or bare wire to the ground screw, then ground the 
entire unit. Refer to 

FIGURE 7 for internal sketch of 

pressure switch.

CONTROL VALVE  ADJUSTMENT (DEEP WELL 

INSTALLATION ONLY)

A control valve is required for all deep well installations.  
At system start-up, this valve will need to be adjusted as 
described below to assure optimum performance.
1.  Install a pressure gauge that reads pressure at the 
pump case.
2.  Open several faucets downstream from the        
control valve.
