Carefully read and follow all safety instructions
in this manual or on pump.
This is the safety-alert.
When you see this
symbol on your pump or in this manual,
look for one of the following signal words and
be alert to the potential for personal injury.
warns about hazards that
will
cause serious personal injury, death or major
property damage if ignored.
warns about hazards that
can
cause serious personal injury, death or major
property damage if ignored.
warns about hazards that
will
or
can
cause minor personal injury or property
damage if ignored.
The word
NOTICE
indicates special instructions
which are important but not related to hazards.
To avoid serious or fatal personal injury and
possible property damage, carefully read and
follow the safety instructions.
1.
Hazardous pressure. Under
certain conditions, submersible pumps can
develop extremely high pressure. Install a
pressure relief valve capable of passing entire
pump flow at 75 PSI (517 kPa) when using an
air over water pressure tank. Install a pressure
relief valve capable of passing entire pump
flow at 100 PSI (690 kPa) when using a pre-
charged pressure tank.
Do not allow pump, pressure tank, piping,
or any other system component containing
water to freeze. Freezing may damage system,
leading to injury or flooding. Allowing pump or
system components to freeze will void warranty.
2.
Hazardous voltage. Can shock,
burn or cause death. To avoid dangerous or
fatal electric shock hazard, use pump only in
a water well.
Risk of dangerous or fatal elec-
trical shock.
Do not install this pump in any
pond, river, or other open body of water that
could be used for swimming or recreation.
Do not swim, wade or play in a body of
water in which a submersible pump has
been installed.
Install, ground and wire pump according
to local code and National Electrical Code
requirements.
Disconnect electrical power supply before
installing or servicing pump.
Make sure line voltage and frequency of
power supply match motor nameplate voltage
and frequency.
3. Install pump according to all plumbing, pump
and well code requirements.
4. Test well water for purity before using well.
Call your local health department for testing
procedure.
5. During installation, keep well covered as
much as possible to prevent leaves and foreign
matter from falling into well. Foreign objects
in well can contaminate the water and cause
serious mechanical damage to the pump.
6. Pipe joint compound can cause cracking in
plastics. Use only teflon tape when sealing
joints in plastic pipe or connecting pipe to
thermoplastic pumps.

PRE-INSTALLATION
Inspect pump and motor for delivery damage.
Report any damage immediately to the shipping
carrier or to your dealer.
The well driller should thoroughly develop the
well (that is, pump out all fine sand and foreign
matter) before pump is installed. See Initial
Start-Up, Page 6.
Pump performance is based on pumping clear,
cold, liquid water with no entrained air.
Warranty is void in the following conditions:
• If pump has pumped excessive sand – exces-
sive sand can cause premature wear to pump.
• If water is corrosive.
• If entrained gas or air are present in the water
being pumped – these can reduce flow and
cause cavitation which can damage pump.
• If pump has been operated with discharge
valve closed – severe internal damage will
result.
Install pump at least 15 to 20' (4.5 to 6M) below
the lowest water level reached with pump run-
ning (lowest draw-down water level), and at
least 5' (1.5M) above the bottom of the well.
GROUNDING:
Hazardous voltage. Can shock,
burn, or cause death. Permanently ground
pump, motor and control box before connect-
ing power supply to motor.
Ground pump and motor in accordance with the
local codes and ordinances. Use a copper
ground wire at least as large as wires carrying
current to motor.
Motor is supplied with a copper ground wire.
