Thermal Overload Protection:
• The pump has a built-in thermal overload trip which prevents
the pump from overheating. The pump must be allowed to
cool down before restarting.
• If the pump will not start again automatically when cooling
down, please check the troubleshooting guide for possible
solutions.
• Repeating cycles of stopping and restarting will damage
the water pump. Do not continue operation at low water
level or while the inlet is clogged with debris. Not only will
performance suffer, but such conditions may cause noise,
heavy vibration and pump failure.
Maintenance and Inspection:
• Regular maintenance and inspections are a necessity for
continued efficient functioning. If any abnormal conditions are
noticed, refer to the troubleshooting guide and take corrective
measures immediately.
Monthly Inspection:
• Check for any drop in performance. Reduced performance is
usually caused by debris blocking the pump intake.
• Detach the power cable from the receptacle or turn off the
power supply at the circuit breaker.
• Disconnect the pump discharge and remove the pump from
the water.
• Remove any accumulated debris from the surface of the
pump, inlet screen.
• Remove the inlet screen and inspect the impeller.
• The impeller should spin freely. If the impeller feels tight or
gritty when spun, please refer to the cleaning instructions on
page 7.

Electrical Safety:
• Electrical wiring should be installed by a qualified electrician
in accordance with all applicable safety regulations. Incorrect
wiring can lead to pump malfunction, electric shock or fire.
• Do not cut electrical cable. If a cable with cut insulation or
other damage is sumberged in water, there is danger of water
seeping into the pump motor and causing a short. This may
result in damage to the pump, electric shock or fire. Altering
the electric cable in any way will void the warranty.
• Never move or handle the pump by pulling on the electrical
cable. Make sure the electrical cable does not become
excessively bent or twisted, does not rub against a structure
in any way that might damage it, and does not come in
contact with heated surfaces.
Operation:
• Pump is for use in water only. Water temperature should
never exceed 95oF.
• Pump must not be used to pump salt water, sewage,
flammable or corrosive liquids, greases, oil or food waste.
• The pump must never to be allowed to run dry. If used
as a submersible pump, the pump must be fully submersed
in water at all times of operation. If used as an in-line pump,
plumbing and pump must be filled with water at all times of
operation. In in-line applications, pump must be positioned
below water surface because it is NOT self-priming.
• In case of excessive vibration, unusual noise or odor, turn off
the power immediately and consult the vendor.

Cleaning:
This asynchronous style pump will require periodic cleaning of the impeller
assembly. Please follow the directions below for proper cleaning procedures.
• Remove the intake screen.
• Remove the four screws using a #2 Phillips screwdriver.
• Rotate the impeller/intake cover counter clockwise 1/4 turn
and remove by pulling straigh out.
• Remove the impeller assembly.
NOTE: If debris accumulated around the rotor, the impeller may
feel tight. Rotate the impeller back and forth while applying outward
pressure until the impeller assembly wiggles free.
• Inspect the rotor and stator sleeve for built-up debris. Often in
hard water, well water or pond-less applications, debris may
appear as a crusty film around the rotor. Remove the film
using a scrub brush or scouring pad.
• Inspect the intake O-ring for nicks or breaks.
• Re-assemble the pump by installing the intake O-ring and
inserting the impeller assembly. Make sure to line-up the
impeller assembly with the two locking pins on the top and
bottom of the pump housing.
Always unplug pump before servicing!
