Installation / Operation 5

INSTALLATION

1. Install the pump on a hard level surface. Make sure

that the pump cannot pick up rocks, mud and debris,

etc. If neccesary, put a block under the pump to raise

it slightly. See Figure 1.

2. Protect the power cord from damage. Uncovered

cords should be routinely inspected for damage or

deterioration. DO NOT operate the pump if the cord

is damaged.

3. Choose an adapter and install it as indicated in

Figure 2.

OPERATION

Hazardous voltage. Can shock, burn or

cause death. Do not handle a pump or pump motor with

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

in water.

1. The shaft seal depends on water for lubrication. Do

not operate the pump unless it is in water as the seal

may be damaged if allowed to run dry.

2. The motor is equipped with an automatic reset ther-

mal protector. If the temperature in the motor should

rise unduly, the switch will cut off all power before

damage can be done to the motor. When the motor

has cooled sufficiently, the switch will reset automati-

cally and restart the motor. If the protector trips

repeatedly, remove the pump and check it as to the

cause of difficulty. Low voltage, long extension cords,

clogged impeller, very low head or lift, etc., could

cause cycling.

3. The pump will not remove all water. If the pump is

operating and suddenly no water comes out of the

discharge hose, shut off the unit immediately. The

water level is probably very low and the unit has bro-

ken prime.

NOTICE: For continuous operation, water must flow

through pump to prevent motor overheating. The

pump is cooled by the water flow through the housing.

4. This pump is designed to pump cold water only.

Pumping heated liquids can overheat the motor and

cause the thermal overload to trip.

5. Pump can run when water doesn’t completely cover

the motor housing, but the inlet must be completely

submerged or it will break suction, will not move any

water, and may damage the shaft seal.

NOTICE: For continuous operation the water depth

must be at least 5” (13 cm) to prevent the pump from

overheating.

6. Keep the pump inlet clean at all times. If the ground

bottom or surface where the pump sits is dirty, raise

the pump slightly to reduce the amount of debris

pulled into the pump inlet.

7. If you need to reduce the flow, restrict the discharge.

Do not restrict the intake. Doing so will starve the

pump for water and can cause overheating.
