SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS:
This fine pump that you have just purchased is manufactured with the highest quality materials and workmanship. Before installation and operation, we recommend the following procedures:
A
B
C D
E
CHECK WITH YOUR LOCAL ELECTRICAL AND PLUMBING CODES TO ENSURE YOU
COMPLY WITH THE REGULATIONS. THESE CODES HAVE BEEN DESIGNED WITH YOUR
SAFETY IN MIND.
WE RECOMMEND THAT A DEDICATED CIRCUIT BE WIRED FROM THE HOME ELECTRI-
CAL DISTRIBUTION PANEL PROPERLY PROTECTED WITH A FUSE OR A CIRCUIT
BREAKER. WE ALSO RECOMMEND THAT A GROUND FAULT CIRCUIT BE USED.
CONSULT A LICENSED ELECTRICIAN FOR ALL WIRING. IN ADDITION, MAKE SURE THAT THE POWER SOURCE VOLTAGE MATCH THE MOTOR VOLTAGE SPECIFICATION.
NEVER MAKE ADJUSTMENTS TO ANY ELECTRICALAPPLIANCE OR PRODUCT WITH THE
POWER CONNECTED.
ENSURE THAT THE PUMP AND PIPING SYSTEM IS PROTECTED AGAINST BELOW FREEZING TEMPERATURES. PUMP DISCHARGE PIPING MUST BE INSTALLED BELOW
THE FROST LEVEL TO YOUR AREA.
ENSURE THAT THE WELL AND THE WATER BEING PUMPED IS FREE FROM SAND. HAVE YOUR WELL TEST PUMPED TO ENSURE THAT THE WATER IS CLEAR. LARGE AMOUNTS OF SAND WILL CLOG THE PIPING AND WATERWAYS. WARRANTY IS VOID IF SAND OR
OTHER ABRASIVES ARE DETERMINED AS THE CAUSE OF PUMP FAILURE.
General instructions:
Your submersible pump is a high quality design but, should be installed in a well that is clean, straight, and of sufficient capacity. Never install your submersible pump where it is resting on the bottom of the well. A clearance of 10 feet (3.0m) from the bottom of well is recommended. If the well does not have an appropriate water recovery capacity, a liquid level control or a L.O.P. pressure switch have to be install.
The 3 wired (+ ground) model, submersible pump is supplied with a motor control box.
This control box should be installed in a clean dry location, in vicinity of the pressure tank. The dedicated electrical circuit should have its own fused disconnect switch in the line leading to the pressure switch.
YOUR OWNER’S MANUAL WILL DISPLAY A NUMBER OF DIAGRAMS AND PICTURES
TO HELP YOU WITH YOUR INSTALLATION.

BEFORE YOU START
INSTALLATION STEP
Information regarding your well may be obtained from your well Driller’s log.
If no information is available, you can determine the depth of the well by lowering a heavy (small) weight tied to a long cord or fishing line. Lower the weight to the well bottom, take up the slack, and mark line where it meets the top of the well. Remove the weight from the well and measure line to determine well depth. Repeat the operation with a dry cord. Mark the line at the top of the well and where it become wet. You now know where is the water level.
Please remember, a submersible pump should not be lower than 10 feet from the bottom of the well and no higher than 10 feet below the water level.
If you are replacing your old pump with a new pump of similar horsepower and capacity, install the new pump at the same level in the well. If a new pump is larger in horsepower (ie: replacing a 1/2 Hp with a 3/4 Hp) or if the pumping capacity is higher (ie: providing
7gpm instead of 5 gpm), set the pump deeper in the well provided that the well will support the additional volume.

HEAT SHRINK SPLICING KIT
SHRINKING TECHNIQUE
Shrinking can be accomplished through the use of a thermo gun or flame torch with a utility head or other broad flame. Begin at one end of tubing. Keep tubing out of direct contact with flame. Keep flame moving back and forth. Progress toward other end as tubing shrinks and wrinkles disappear. Keep the flame moving. To prevent electric shock, make sure that the power supply is disconnected.
Strip approximatively 1/4” (6mm) of wire insulation from both end of wires to connect. Clean wires about 3” from ends and put tube over one end.

contact with flame. Keep flame moving back and forth.

Progress toward other end as tubing shrinks and wrinkles disappear. Keep the flame moving. A small amount of glue should be visible around the ends of the tube.
Let tube to cool before pump installation.
Put together all spliced wires and use electrical tape to cover the complete heat shrink from beginning to end.
