INTRODUCTION
Please read our instructions before you install and use your
new pump; this will help you obtain full value and good ser-
vice from it. It will also help you avoid needless service costs
that result from causes we cannot control and cannot cover
in our warranty.
NOTICE: This unit is not designed for applications involving
salt water or brine! Use with salt water or brine will void
warranty.
1. Know the pump application, limitations, and potential
hazards.
Do not use in explosive atmospheres.
Pump water only with this pump. Failure to follow
this warning can result in personal injury and/or
property damage.
2. Disconnect power before servicing.
3. Release all pressure within the system before servicing
any component.
4. Drain water from the system before servicing.
5. Secure the discharge line before starting the pump. An un-
secured discharge line will whip, possibly causing per-
sonal injury and/or property damage.
6. Check hoses for weak or worn condition before each use,
making certain that all connections are secure.
7. Periodically inspect pump and system components. Per-
form routine maintenance as required (See MAIN-
TENANCE, Page 4).
8. Provide a means of pressure relief for pumps whose dis-
charge line can be shut-off or obstructed.
9. 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 the work area.
d. Make workshop child-proof – with padlocks, master
switches, and by removing starter keys.
10. When wiring an electrically driven pump, follow elec-
trical and safety codes, as well as the most recent National
Electrical Code.
11.
This equipment is only for use on 115 volt (single
phase) and is equipped with an approved 3-con-
ductor cord and 3-prong, grounding-type plug.
To reduce the risk of electric shock,
pull plug before servicing. This pump has not been
investigated for use in swimming pool areas. This
pump is supplied with a grounding conductor and
grounding-type attachment plug. Be certain that it
is connected only to a properly grounded ground-
ing-type receptacle.
Where a 2-prong wall receptacle is encountered, it
must be replaced with a properly grounded 3-prong
receptacle installed in accordance with the National
Electrical Code and local codes and ordinances.
12. All wiring should be performed by a qualified electrician.
13. Make certain that the power source conforms to the re-
quirements of your equipment.
