stop pump for about one minute, then restart. repeat stopping and starting until the
airlock clears. If the airlock persists, dIsconnect poWer, pull the pump and drill a
1/8” hole in the discharge pipe between the pump discharge and the check valve.
Worn or damaged impeller.
dIsconnect poWer, pull pump and inspect impeller. replace if necessary.
liquid level controls incorrectly installed
or defective.
reposition or replace as necessary.
pump cycles constantly
no discharge check valve installed.
Install discharge check valve.
discharge check valve stuck open.
repair or replace check valve as necessary.
