INTRODUCTION
RULES FOR SAFE INSTALLATION AND OPERATION!
Carefully read and follow aU safety instructions in this manual or on pump.
A This is the safety alert symbol. When you see this
symbol on your pump or in this manual, look for one of the following signal words and be alert to the potential for per sonal injury!
A DANGER
serious personal injury, death or major property damage if ignored.
AWARNING ItyARNTNG warns about hazards that can
cause serious personal injury, death or major property dam age if ignored.
[A^AUTIO^ CAUTION warns about hazards Chat will or
can cause minor personal injury or property damage if ig
nored.
The word NOTICE indicates special instructions which are
important but not related to hazards
l.To avoid risk of serious bodily injury and property dam
age, read safety instructions carefully before installing pump.
I DANGER wam,s about Itazards that will cause
2. Follow local and/or national plumbing and electrical codes when installing pump,
3. Keep the well covered while installing pump to prevent leaves and other debris from falling into well, contami nating well and possibly damaging pump.
4. Protect pump and piping system from freezing. Allowing pump or water system to freeze could severely damage pump and voids warranty.
AWARNING ¡Hazardous Voltage. Can shock, burn.
cause death, or start fires.
5. Disconnect electrical power source before installing or working on pump,
6. Ground pump with a ground wire run from grounding lug on motor to a grounded lead in the service panel.
7. Line voltage and frequency of electrical power supply must agree with motor nameplate.
8. Lise of fuses or wire smaller than size recommended in owner's manual can cause overheating, pos.siblc fires, and will void warranty.
9. Ihtmp water only with this pump,
10. Do not run pump dry. To do so will damage seals and can cause leaking and property damage.
PREPARATION
INSTALLATION (Continued)
BASIC TOOLS AND MATERIALS NEEDED
Pipe Wrenches Hacksaw
Adjustable Wrench
Screwdriver Check Valve Teflon Tape
Knife
NOTICE: Depth to water must not be more than 20’.
1. Long runs and many fittings increase friction and reduce flow. Locate pump as close to water source as possible: use as few elbows and fittings as possible.
2. Be sure water is clear of sand. Sand 'will plug the pump and void the warranty.
3. Protect pump and all piping Irom freezing. Freezing will split pipe, damage purhp and void the warranty. Check locally for frost protection requirements (usually pipe must be 12” below frost line and pump must be insu lated).
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 Teflon tape or Plasto-Joint Stik' to seal pipe joints.
7. Unions installed near pump and water source will aid in servicing. Leave room to use wrenches.
A WARNING
8.
Pump body may explode if used as a
booster pump. DO NOT use in a booster application.

INSTALLATION

NOTICE: Use the installation method below which matches your well type.
Suction Pipe
Priming Tee and Plug
Foot
Valve
Strainer^®
Figure I - Cased/Dug Well Installation
DRIVEN POINT INSTALLATION
1.
Connect the suction pipe to the drive point as illustrated in
____
2590 0996
Figure 2. Keep horizontal pipe run as short as possible. Use Teflon tape on male pipe threads. Multiple well points may be necessary to provide sufficient water to pump.
2.
Install a check valve in piping as shown in Figure 2. Flow arrow on check valve must point toward pump.
Suction Pipe to Pump
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 suc tion pipe and lower pipe into well. Add sections of pipe as needed, using Teflon 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 low est level to which water will drop while pump is operat ing (pumping water level). Your well driller can furnish this information.
3. To prevent sand and sediment from entering the pumjv ing 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 weU 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 OR OPEN WATER
INSTALLATION
1. Follow cased well installation, steps 1, 2, 3 and 5.

HORIZONTAL PIPING FROM WELL TO PUMP
1. Never install a suction pipe that is smaller than the suc tion tapping of the pump.
INSTALLATION (Continued)
2, To aid priming on driven 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 tapping. 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.
• Up to 100’ run: Same size as pump discharge tapping.
• 100’ to 300’ run: Increase one pipe size.
• 300' to 600’ run: Increase two pipe sizes.
LAWN SPRINKLING APPLICATION
This pump is designed for lawn sprinkling. It is designed to deliver plenty of water at full sprinkler pressure. It can pump from a pond, cistern or well points.
Pump discharge can be divided to supply two (2) or more
To Service
Priming Plug
sprinkler systems. A suggested multiple discharge 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 Teflon tape supplied with the pump for mak ing all threaded connections to the pump itself. Do not use pipe joint compounds on the pump: they can react with the plastic in the pump components.
1. Bolt pump to solid, level foundation.
2. Support all piping cormected to the pump.
3. Wrap 1-1/2 to two layers of Teflon 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 over tighten.
NOTICE: Install pump as close to water source as possible. Long piping runs and many fittings create friction and re duce flow.
Use schedule 80 or iron pipe. See “Well Pipe InstaUation” for more information.
