WARNING
This symbol indicates a hazard which if not avoided could result
in serious personal injury or death! Please be cautious!
Please carefully read and follow all safety instructions and procedures listed on the pump and in
this manual.
1. This pump and motor unit should be installed by a qualified electrician or service person in accordance
with all applicable state and local codes and ordinances, and in accordance with the National
Electrical Code. Improper installation may create a mechanical or electrical hazard which could
cause damage to property and could result in serious injury or death.
2. In order to avoid serious injury or death, always disconnect power to the motor before servicing
the pump and follow all instructions in this manual.
3. Always use the schematic on the motor for all electrical connections.
4.
Never run the pump dry. The Cascade is not self priming and is best suited for flooded suction systems.
The pump housing and entire suction line must be filled with water for proper operation prior to starting
the pump. Running dry will void the warranty and can result in permanent damage to the pump unit.
5. To prevent incorrect motor rotation, install a ball or swing type check valve. Do not use spring check valves.
6. Maintain a minimum flow rate of at least two gallons per minute to avoid damage to the pump unit.
7. Visually inspect the pump and motor a minimum of once per week. If any leakage between the motor
and pump housing is present, replace the mechanical seal. The seal faces wear similar to car tires and
must be replaced periodically. For critical applications, replace the mechanical seal yearly. If pump is
excessively noisy, shut it down and contact support.
8. For 3 phase motors, ensure proper rotation. See section 7 in electrical for details.
