General Safety

Pump is designed as a lawn sprinkler only. To avoid heat

built-up, over pressure hazard and possible injury, do not

use in a pressure tank (domestic water) system. Do not

use as a booster pump; pressurized suction may cause

pump body to explode.

Do not allow pump or piping system to freeze. Freezing

can damage pump and pipe, may lead to injury from

equipment failure and will void warranty.

Pump water only with this pump.

Periodically inspect pump and system components.

Wear safety glasses at all times when working on pumps.

Keep work area clean, uncluttered and properly lighted;

store properly all unused tools and equipment.

Keep visitors at a safe distance from the work areas.

WARNING

Hazardous voltage.

Can shock, burn, or

cause death.

Ground pump before

connecting to power

supply.

WARNING

Hazardous pressure!

Do not run pump

against closed discharge.

Release all pressure on

system before working on

any component.

Before You Install Your Pump

NOTICE: Well must not be more than 20’ depth to water.

1. Long runs and many fittings increase friction and

reduce flow. Locate pump as close to well as

possible: use as few elbows and fittings as possible.

2. Be sure well is clear of sand. Sand will plug the

pump and void the warranty.

3. Protect pump and all piping from freezing. Freezing

will split pipe, damage pump and void the warranty.

Check locally for frost protection requirements

(usually pipe must be 12” below frost line and pump

must be insulated).

4. Be sure all pipes and foot valve are clean and in

good shape.

5. No air pockets in suction pipe.

6. No leaks in suction pipe. Use PTFE pipe thread

sealant tape to seal pipe joints.

7. Unions installed near pump and well will aid in

servicing. Leave room use wrenches.

8. Pump body may explode if used

as a booster pump. DO NOT use in a booster

application.

Well Pipe Installation

NOTICE: Use the installation method below which

matches your well type.

CASED WELL INSTALLATION

1. Inspect foot valve to be sure it works freely. Inspect

strainer to be sure it is clean.

2. Connect foot valve and strainer to the first length of

suction pipe and lower pipe into well. Add sections

of pipe as needed, using PTFE pipe thread sealant

tape on male threads. Be sure that all suction pipe is

leakproof or pump will lose prime and fail to pump.

Install foot valve 10 to 20 feet below the lowest level

to which water will drop while pump is operating

(pumping water level). Your well driller can furnish

this information.

3. To prevent sand and sediment from entering the

pumping system, the foot valve/strainer should be at

least 5 feet above the bottom of the well.

4. When the proper depth is reached, install a sanitary

well seal over the pipe and in the well casing.

Tighten the bolts to seal the casing.

5. When using a foot valve, a priming tee and plug as

shown in Figure 1 are recommended.

DUG WELL INSTALLATION

Same as cased well installation.

DRIVEN POINT INSTALLATION

1. Connect the suction pipe to the drive point as

illustrated in Figure 2. Keep horizontal pipe run as

short as possible. Use PTFE pipe thread sealant

tape on male pipe threads. Multiple well points may

be necessary to provide sufficient water to pump.

2. Install a check valve in horizontal pipe. Flow arrow

on check valve must point toward pump.

1. Never install a suction pipe that is smaller than the

suction port of the pump.

2. To aid priming on well point installations, install

a line check valve as shown in Figure 2. Be sure

check valve flow arrow points toward pump.

DISCHARGE PIPE SIZES

1. If increasing discharge pipe size, install reducer in

pump discharge port. Do not increase pipe size by

stages.

2. When the pump is set away from the points of water

use, the discharge pipe size should be increased to

reduce pressure losses caused by friction.

LAWN SPRINKLING APPLICATION

This pump is designed for lawn sprinkling. It is

designed to deliver plenty of water at full sprinkler pres-

sure. It can pump from a pond, cistern or well points.

Pump discharge can be divided to supply two (2) or

more sprinkler systems. A suggested multiple dis-

charge to service is shown in Figure 3.

Do not use in a pressure tank or booster pump

application.

Pump/Piping Installation

PUMP INSTALLATION

NOTICE: Use only PTFE pipe thread sealant tape

for making all threaded connections to the pump

itself. Do not use pipe joint compounds on plastic

pumps: they can react with the plastic in the pump

components. Make sure that all pipe joints in the

suction pipe are air tight as well as water tight. If the

suction pipe can suck air, the pump will not be able to

pull water from the well.

1. Bolt pump to solid, level foundation.

2. Support all piping connected to the pump.

3. Wrap 1-1/2 to two layers of PTFE pipe thread

sealant tape clockwise (as you face end of pipe) on

all male threads being attached to pump.

4. Tighten joints hand tight plus 1-1/2 turns. Do not

overtighten.

NOTICE: Install pump as close to well head as poss-

ible. Long piping runs and many fittings create friction

and reduce flow.

NOTICE: For long horizontal pipe runs, install a

priming tee between check valve and well head as

shown in Figure 1. For driven point installations, install

a check valve as shown in Figure 2. Be sure check

valve flow arrow points toward pump.

Use schedule 80 or iron pipe. See “Well Pipe Installa-

tion” for more information.

Electrical Installation

Hazardous voltage. Can shock, burn,

or cause death. Disconnect power to motor before

working on pump or motor. Ground motor before

connecting to power supply.

WIRING

Ground motor before connecting to electrical

power supply. Failure to ground motor can

cause severe or fatal electrical shock hazard.

Do not ground to a gas supply line.

To avoid dangerous or fatal electrical shock,

turn OFF power to motor before working on

electrical connections.

Supply voltage must be within ±10% of

nameplate voltage. Incorrect voltage can

cause fire or damage motor and voids warranty. If

in doubt consult a licensed electrician.

Use wire size specified in Wiring Chart, below.

If possible, connect pump to a separate

branch circuit with no other appliances on it.

Wire motor according to diagram on motor

nameplate. If nameplate diagram differs from

diagrams above, follow nameplate diagram.

1. Install, ground, wire and maintain this pump in

accordance with electrical code requirements.

Consult your local building inspector for information

about codes.

2. Provide a correctly fused disconnect switch for

protection while working on motor. Consult local or

national electrical codes for switch requirements.

3. Disconnect power before servicing motor or pump.

If the disconnect switch is out of sight of pump,

lock it open and tag it to prevent unexpected power

application.

4. Ground the pump permanently using a wire of the

same size as that specified in wiring chart, below.

Operation

PRIMING THE PUMP

NOTICE: ‘Priming’ refers to the pump expelling all air

in the system and beginning to move water from its

source out into the system. It does not refer only to

pouring water into the pump (although pouring water in

is usually the first step).

NOTICE: NEVER run pump dry. Running pump with-

out water in it will damage seals and can melt impeller

and diffuser. To prevent damage, fill pump with water

before starting.

1. Remove priming plug (Figure 10).

2. Make sure suction and discharge valves and any

hoses on discharge side of pump are open.

3. Fill pump and suction pipe with water.

4. Replace priming plug, using PTFE pipe thread

sealant tape on thread; tighten plug.

NOTICE: If a priming tee and plug have been

provided for a long horizontal run, be sure to fill

suction pipe through this tee and replace plug. (Don’t

forget to PTFE pipe thread sealant tape the plug.)

5. Start pump: water should be produced in 10 minutes

or less, the time depending on depth to water (not

more than 20’) and length of horizontal run (10’

of horizontal suction pipe = 1’ of vertical lift due to

friction losses in the pipe).

If no water is produced within 10 minutes, stop

pump, release all pressure, remove priming plug,

refill and try again.

Hazardous pressure and risk of

explosion and scalding. If pump is run continu-

ously at no flow (that is, with discharge shut off

or without priming), water may boil in pump and

piping system. Under steam pressure, pipes may

rupture, blow off of fittings or blow out of pump

ports and scald anyone near.

To prevent explosion, do the following:

A. Be sure discharge (valve, pistol grip hose nozzle,

etc.) is open whenever pump is running.

B. If pump fails to produce water when attempting to

prime, release all pressure, drain pump and refill

with cold water after every two attempts.

C. When priming, monitor pump and piping tempera-

ture. If pump or piping begin to feel warm to the

touch, shut off pump and allow system to cool off.

Release all pressure in system and refill pump and

piping with cold water.

Pump and piping need not be disconnected to repair

or replace motor or seal (see Figure 14). If motor is

replaced, replace the shaft seal (Key No. 7, Page 12).

Keep one on hand for future use.

Be sure to prime pump before starting.

NOTICE: Check motor label for lubrication instructions.

The mechanical shaft seal in the pump is water

lubricated and self-adjusting.

NOTICE: Drain pump when disconnecting from service

or when it might freeze.

PUMP DISASSEMBLY

1. Disconnect power to motor.

NOTICE: Mark wires for correct assembly.

2. Remove capscrews holding seal plate to pump

body. Motor assembly and seal plate can now be
