General Safety
Information
CALIFORNIA PROPOSITION 65
This product or its power cord may
contain chemicals, including lead, known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm. Wash hands after handling.
GENERAL SAFETY INFORMATION
1. Read these rules and
instructions carefully. Failure
MANUAL
to follow these instuctions could cause serious bodily injury and/or property damage.
This pump is nonsubmersible.
Pump only clear water. Do not pump flammable or explosive fluids such as gasoline, fuel oil,
kerosene, etc. Do not use in a flammable and/or explosive atmosphere. Personal injury and/or property damage could result.
This pump is not designed to handle
salt water, brine, laundry discharge or any other application which may contain caustic chemicals and/or foreign materials. Pump damage could occur if used in these applications and will void warranty.
All wiring must be performed by a qualified
electrician. The pump must
be installed in compliance with all local and national codes.
2.Connect this product to a grounded circuit equipped with a ground fault interruptor device.
3.Before installing this product, have the electrical circuit checked by an electrician to ensure proper grounding.
4.BE CERTAIN the pump power source is disconnected before installing or servicing pump.
5.Check motor voltage setting on motor end plate and make sure the line voltage of the electrical current supply is correct.
6.Be sure the water source and piping is clear of sand, dirt and scale. Debris will clog pump and void warranty.
7.Failure to protect pump and piping from freezing could cause severe damage and will void the warranty.
8.Do not run pump dry. Follow priming instructions.
Installation
Protect pump from the elements by installing in a basement, garage, tool shed or pump house. Install the pump so the center line of the pump is as close as possible to the water level. Keep installation area clear to provide access for service and maintenance. Protect the pump against flooding and excess moisture.
Make sure the pump has adequate ventilation. The surrounding temperature should not exceed 100°F (38°C) or nuisance tripping of the motor may occur.
PUMP PIPING INSTALLATION
Use new pipe for best results. Galvanized or plastic pipe can be used. When using galvanized pipe, provide independent supports for both suction and discharge piping near the pump to avoid strain on the pump. Minimize use of elbows and fittings to reduce friction loss. Refer to the friction loss chart for specific information.
Increase diameter of suction or discharge piping if length is over 50 feet.
SUCTION PIPING
Install foot valve or strainer screen
over intake of suction piping.
Never use pipe smaller than 2” in diameter for suction piping. The suction pipe must be kept free of air leaks. For horizontal runs, lay pipe from the water source so the upward slope is at least 1/2” per foot. This eliminates trapped air. The threaded inlet of the pump is 2” NPT.
Do not install suction piping near
swimming areas.
REMINDER: Keep your dated proof of purchase for warranty purposes!
Attach it to this manual or file it for safekeeping.

Installation (Continued)
DISCHARGE PIPING
Install a 1-1/2” pipe tee in the pump discharge to allow easy priming. Plug the end of the tee opposite the pump to allow the branch piping to go to the spray nozzles (See Figure 1). Remove the pipe plug to fill the pump with water for priming.

2.Lower the pipe into the well.
3.Add pipe until the foot valve is 10 feet below the lowest anticipated water level.
Leaking joints or couplings will allow air to leak into the pipe and cause poor pump operation. Make sure to use pipe joint compound or Teflon® tape on all pipe connections.
Locate foot valve no closer than 2 feet
from the bottom of the well so sand or sediment is not drawn into the system.
4.After the proper depth is reached, install a well seal or pitless adapter to support the pipe.
5.Slope the horizontal pipe upward toward the pump to eliminate trapping air.
6.When using a foot valve, a priming tee and plug above the well seal is recommended.
DRIVEN WELL
•Drive the point several feet below the water table.
NOTE: A packer-type foot valve can be installed in the well (See Figure 3). This type of foot valve allows the well pipe to be filled with water when priming and makes the inlet pipe much easier to test for leaks. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions when installing the packertype foot valve.
As an alternative, an in-line check valve can be used with a driven well (See Figure 4).

It may be necessary to supply the pump with multiple well points to maintain the high flow capability of this pump. Consult with a plumbing professional for appropriate materials and installation instructions.
Leaking joints or couplings will allow air to leak into the pipe and cause poor pump operation. Make sure to use pipe joint compound or Teflon® tape on all pipe connections.

•Install a foot valve on the inlet pipe and lower into the water.
Locate foot valve no closer than 2 feet
from the bottom of the water source so sand or sediment is not drawn into the system.
NOTE: When a lake is used for the water supply, make sure the suction pipe is deep enough to be submerged at all times. Slope the pipe upward toward the pump to eliminate trapping air. The pipe must be removed during winter months or protected against freezing.
Protect the pipe from damage by
swimmers and boaters.
Electrical Connections
Connect the pump to a separate electrical circuit with a dedicated circuit breaker. Refer to the electrical specifications in wiring chart for recommended circuit breaker and wire size.

pump in accordance with the National Electrical code and all applicable local electrical codes.
The motor must be grounded by connecting a copper conductor to the grounding screw provided within the wiring compartment.
The voltage of power supply must match the voltage of the pump. The WLS75, WLS100 and WLS150 have dual voltage motors preset at the factory to 230 volts. The motors can be converted to 115 volts by turning the voltage selector to the desired voltage (See Figure 5). Use a needle nose pliers to pull the selector out approximately 1/4”, rotate and then reinsert in correct position. The WLS200 cannot be converted; the motor is 230 volts only.

Operation
Never run the pump dry. Running
pump without water may cause seal damage. Fill the pump with water before starting.
PRIMING THE PUMP
After pump installation is complete, the pump must be primed. Remove the pipe plug in the discharge piping and fill the pump and suction pipe with clean water. Turn power to pump on. If the pump does not pump water in 10 minutes, turn off the pump and refill with clean water.

If the pump does not operate after repeated attempts, check the following:
1.Vertical distance of pump to water level must not be over 25 feet.
2.Suction piping must be air tight.
3.Be sure valve(s) are open if used in discharge or suction piping.
Never run the pump with a closed
or clogged discharge. The water inside the pump could boil and damage the pump.
Maintenance
Maintain adequate ventilation for the pump motor. The motor bearings are permanently lubricated at the factory. Additional lubrication is not required.
DRAINING FOR WINTER
Always protect pump and piping against freezing temperatures. If there is any danger of freezing, drain the system. To drain the system:
1.Remove the pipe plug from the discharge tee.
2.Remove the 1/4” plug from the lower front face of the pump.
3.Drain all piping below the frost line.
