Safety Information
DANGER: Do not pump flammable or explosive liquids such as oil, gasoline, kerosene, ethanol, etc. Do not use in the presence of flammable or explosive vapors. Using this pump with or near flammable liquids can cause an explosion or fire, resulting in property damage, serious personal injury, and/or death.
DANGER: ALWAYS disconnect the power to the pump before servicing.
DANGER: Do not touch the motor housing during operation. The motor is designed to operate at high temperatures. Do not disassemble the motor housing.
DANGER: Do not handle the pump or pump motor with wet hands or when standing on a wet or damp surface, or in water.
WARNING: Wear safety goggles at all times when working with pumps.
WARNING: This is a dual voltage 115/230 V pump. VOLTAGE SELECTOR INSIDE PRESET TO 230V.
For 115V selection, please open the terminal cover and set the switch to the proper voltage. All wiring should be performed by a qualified electrician.
WARNING: Protect the electrical cord from sharp objects, hot surfaces, oil, and chemicals. Avoid kinking the cord. Do not use damaged or worn cords.
WARNING: Failure to comply with the instruction and designed operation of this unit may void the warranty. ATTEMPTING TO USE A DAMAGED PUMP can result in property damage, serious personal injury, and/or death.
WARNING: The pump should be connected to a 230V/115V GFCI outlet protected with a
10 amp (230V)/20 amp(115V) fuse or circuit breaker.
CAUTION: Know the pump and its applications, limitations, and potential hazards.
CAUTION: Secure the pump to a solid base.
CAUTION: Periodically inspect the pump and system components. Disconnect the pump from the power supply before inspecting.

Safety Information (continued)
CAUTION: Follow all electrical and safety codes, particularly the Canadian Electrical Code, and local codes and ordinances.
IMPORTANT: The motor of this pump has a thermal protector that will trip if the motor becomes too hot. The protector will reset itself once the motor cools down and an acceptable temperature has been reached. The pump may start unexpectedly if it is plugged in.
IMPORTANT: Ensure the electrical power source is adequate for the requirements of the pump.
IMPORTANT: This pump is made of high-strength, corrosion-resistant materials. It will provide trouble-free service for a long time when properly installed, maintained, and used. However, inadequate electrical power to the pump, dirt, or debris may cause the pump to fail. Please carefully read the manual and follow the instructions regarding common pump problems and remedies.
Warranty

This Limited Warranty does not cover products which have been damaged as a result of an accident, misuse, abuse, negligence, alteration, improper installation or maintenance, or failure to operate in accordance with the instructions supplied with the products, or operational failures caused by corrosion, rust, or other foreign materials in the system.
Requests for service under this warranty shall be made by returning the defective product to the manufacturer as soon as possible after the discovery of any alleged defect. The manufacturer will subsequently take corrective action as promptly as reasonably possible.
The manufacturer does not warrant and especially disclaims any warranty, whether express or implied, of fitness for a particular purpose, other than the warranty contained herein. This is the exclusive remedy and any liability for any and all indirect or consequential damages or expenses whatsoever is excluded.

Pre-Installation
APPLICATION
This unit is a convertible jet pump designed for pumping water where the water level is less than 70 ft. deep. If the water level to the pump is deeper than 70 ft., a deep well submersible pump should be selected. A pressure switch pre-set at 30 psi “on”/ 50 psi “off” has been installed on the pump. The pressure switch will automatically turn the pump on and off based on the system pressure.

Pre-Installation (continued)
DETERMINE THE DEPTH OF YOUR WELL
Tie a small but heavy weight such as a fishing weight to the end of a piece of cotton string. Lower the weight into the well until it reaches the bottom of the well. Make a mark on the string at ground level. Pull the weight out of the well and measure from the bottom of the weight to the ground level mark. This is the depth of your well. Subtract 5 ft. from the depth of your well. If this number is less than 25 ft., shallow well installation should be taken. If this number is more than 25 ft. and less than 70 ft., deep well installation should be taken. If this number is more than 70 ft., a deep well submersible pump should be selected. Measure the ground level mark to the mark where the cotton string is wetted. This number is your well’s water level. It should also be at least 10 ft. below the well’s water level while the pump is running in order to prevent the pump from sucking air due to water level drawdown.
LOCATION OF THE PUMP
Decide on the area for the pump installation. Select a pump location with adequate space for future pump maintenance. It can be located in the basement or utility room of the house, at the well, or between the house and the well. If installed outside of the house, it should be protected by a pump house with auxiliary heat to prevent possible freezing. Protect the pump against flooding and excess moisture. The well also should be protected for sanitary reasons. Mount the pump as close to the well as possible.
For best performance of the pump, it is recommended that you use a diaphragm pressure tank (sold separately). It is best to have this in place before installing the pump. A pre-charged storage tank has a flexible bladder or diaphragm that acts as a barrier between the compressed air and water. This barrier prevents the air from being absorbed into the water and allows the water to be acted on by compressed air at initially higher than atmospheric pressures (pre-charged). More usable water is provided than with a conventional type tank.
CAUTION: In order for the pump and tank to operate properly, the pressure tank needs to be drained of all water BEFORE INSTALLING THE NEW PUMP. After draining, if you are using the supplied 30/50 psi pressure switch at the pre-set settings, add or adjust the air pressure in the tank to 28 psi of pressure BEFORE startup.
For wells 25 ft. or less in depth, shallow well installations should be adapted. The shallow well installations have only one single pipe between the pump and well water.

WARNING: All joints and connections must be AIRTIGHT. A single leak will prevent the proper operation of the pump. Wrap thread tape clockwise on all threaded connections. For all non-threaded connections, you must use PVC Purple Primer and PVC Cement to ensure airtight seals. Measure all pipe lengths before attaching.
NOTE: A foot valve is a check valve that is used to keep the water from running back into the well from the pump and maintain hydraulic pressure when the pump is not running. If the foot valve does not hold the water the pump will lose it's prime and will not pump water. If the foot valve open pressure is too high (the spring is too stiff), or the flow area is too small, the pump suction head and flow rate will significantly drop.
NOTE: The suction pipe size should not be less than 1-1/4 in. The suction size of this pump is 1-1/4 in. FNPT.

REPLACING AN EXISTING PUMP
WARNING: Risk of electric shock. Can shock, burn or kill. Disconnect power to pump before working on pump or motor.
1.Drain and remove the old pump. Check the old pipe for scale, lime, rust, etc., and replace it if necessary.
2.Install the pressure gauge in the pump body.
3.Install the pump in the system. 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.
4.Adjust the pump mounting height so that the plumbing connections do not put a strain on the pump body. Support the pipe so that the pump body does not take the weight of piping or fittings.
You have just completed the well plumbing for your new shallow well jet pump. Please go to discharge pipe and tank connections.
