GENERAL SAFETY INFORMATION (CONT'D)

  Disconnect power and release all pressure from 

the system before attempting to install, service, relocate or perform any 

maintenance. Lock the power disconnect in the open (OFF) position. Tag 

out the power disconnect to prevent unexpected application of power.

  Débrancher de la source d’alimentation puis 

dissiper toute la pression du système avant d’essayer d’installer, 

de réparer, de déplacer ou de procéder à l’entretien. Verrouiller 

le sectionneur de courant en position ouverte (OFF). Étiqueter le 

sectionneur de courant pour éviter toute mise sous tension imprévue.

3.   Drain all liquids from the system before servicing.
4.   Periodically inspect pump and system components. Perform 

routine maintenance as required (See Maintenance on page 7).

Personal Safety:

a.   Wear safety glasses at all times when working with pumps.

b.   Keep work area clean, uncluttered and properly lighted - 

replace all unused tools and equipment.

c.   Keep visitors at a safe distance from work area.

d.   Make the workshop childproof use padlocks, master 

switches and remove starter keys.

5.   Do NOT pump chemicals or corrosive liquids. Pumping these 

liquids shortens the life of the seals and moving parts, this WILL 

void the warranty. Pump only clear water.

6.   When installing pump, cover the well to prevent foreign matter 

from falling into well contaminating the water, and damaging 

internal mechanical pumping components.

7.   Always test the water from the well for purity before use. Check 

with local health department for test procedure.

8.   Complete pump and piping system MUST be protected against 

freezing temperature. Freezing temperatures could cause 

severe damage and void the warranty.

9.   Do not run the pump dry or damage will occur and will void 

warranty.

  Risk of electrical shock! This pump is designed 

for indoor installation only.

  Risque de choc électrique! Cette pompe est 

conçue seulement pour une utilisation à l'intérieur.

  Risk of Electrical Shock! All wiring SHOULD be 

performed by a licensed or certified electrician.

  Risque de choc électrique! Tout le câblage DOIT 

être effectué par un électricien qualifié ou certifié.

10. Pressure switch is factory set at 30 ON/ 50 OFF and is NOT to 

be changed (will void warranty). 

11. Before installing the pump, have the electrical circuit checked 

by a licensed or certified electrician to make sure the circuit is 

properly grounded.

12. The circuit voltage and frequency of electrical current must 

correspond with the specifications of the motor.

13. Do NOT attempt repairs to the electric motor. All repairs to the 

motor must be completed by a licensed electrician.

  Do NOT touch an operating motor. Modern 

motors are designed to operate at high temperatures.

  Ne touchez PAS un monteur en fonctionnement. 

Les moteurs modernes sont conçus pour fonctionner à des 

températures élevées..

14. Avoid kinking electrical wire and protect from sharp    

 

      objects, hot surfaces, oil and chemicals. 
15. Keep fingers and foreign objects away from ventilation     

        

      and other openings. Do NOT insert any objects into the    

       

      motor.

  Risk of electric shock! NEVER connect the 

green (or green/yellow) wire to a live terminal!

  Risque de choc électrique! Ne JAMAIS brancher 

le fil vert (ou vert et jaune) à une borne sous tension!

16. To reduce the risk of electrical shock. The motor must be 

securely and adequately grounded for protection against shock.

17. Use wire of adequate size to minimize voltage drop at the 

motor per local code. See Chart 3 on Page 6.

  Do NOT handle pump or pump motor with wet 

hands, when standing on a wet or damp surface or when standing in 

water. Fatal electrical shock COULD occur.

  NE PAS manipuler de pompe ou de moteur 

de pompe avec les mains humides ou debout dans l'eau ou sur une 

surface humide. Ceci POURRAIT occasionner un choc électrique mortel.

   Pump motor is equipped with an automatic 

resetting thermal protector and MAY restart unexpectedly. Protector 

tripping is an indication of motor overheating because of operating 

pump at low heads (low discharge restriction), excessively high or low 

voltage, inadequate wiring, incorrect motor connections, excessive 

surrounding air temperature, inadequate ventilation, and/or defective 

motor or pump.

 MISE EN GARDE

   Le moteur de la pompe est doté d'un 

protecteur thermique à réinitialisation automatique et POURRAIT 

redémarrer de manière imprévue. Le déclenchement du protecteur est 

une indication de surchauffe du moteur à cause d'une utilisation de 

la pompe à faible hauteur de chute (restriction de faible décharge), 

d'une tension excessivement haute ou basse, d'un câblage inadéquat, 

d'un branchement incorrect du moteur, d'une température ambiante 

excessive, d'une ventilation inadéquate ou d'une pompe ou d'un moteur 

défectueux.
