Installation
REPLACING AN OLD PUMP
Hazardous voltage.
Disconnect power
to pump before working on pump or
motor.
1. Drain and remove the old pump.
Check pipe for scale, lime, rust, etc.,
and replace it if necessary.
2. 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.
3. 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 Page 6 for
discharge pipe and tank connections.
WELL POINT (DRIVEN POINT)
INSTALLATION (FIGURE 1)
1. Drive the well, using “drive
couplings” and a “drive cap”. “Drive
fittings” are threaded all the way
through and allow the pipe ends to
butt against each other so that the
driving force of the maul is carried by
the pipe and not by the threads. The
ordinary fittings found in hardware
stores are not threaded all the way
through the fitting and can collapse
under impact. “Drive fittings” are
also smoother than standard
plumbing fittings, making ground
penetration easier.
2. Mount the pump as close to the well
as possible.
3. Use the fewest possible fittings
(especially elbows) when connecting
the pipe from the well point to the
pump suction port. The suction pipe
should be at least as large as the
suction port on the pump (include a
check valve – See Figure 1). Support
the pipe so that there are no dips or
sags in the pipe, so it doesn’t strain
the pump body, and so that it slopes
slightly upward from the well to the
pump (high spots can cause air
pockets which can air lock the
pump). Seal the suction pipe joints
with teflon tape or a teflon based
pipe joint compound. Joints must be
air- and water-tight. If the suction
pipe can suck air, the pump cannot
pull water from the well. If one well
point does not supply enough water,
consider connecting two or three
well points to one suction pipe.
You have just completed the suction
piping for your new shallow well jet
pump. Please go to Page 6 for
discharge pipe and tank connections
CASED WELL INSTALLATION, 2” OR
LARGER CASING (FIGURE 2)
1. Mount the pump as close to the well
as possible.
2. Assemble the foot valve, strainer,
and well pipe (See Figure 2). Make
sure that the foot valve works freely.

3. Lower the pipe into the well until
the strainer is five feet above the
bottom of the well. It should also be
at least 10 feet below the well’s
water level while the pump is
running in order to prevent the
pump from sucking air. Install a
sanitary well seal.
4. Install a priming tee, priming plug,
and suction pipe to the pump (See
Figure 2). Connect the pipe from the
well to the pump suction port, using
the fewest possible fittings –
especially elbows – as fittings
increase friction in the pipe
(however, include a foot valve – See
Figure 2). The suction pipe should
be at least as large as the suction
port on the pump. Use teflon tape
or a teflon-based pipe joint
compound on threaded pipe joints.
Support the pipe so that there are
no dips or sags in the pipe, so it
doesn’t strain the pump body, and
so that it slopes slightly upward
from the well to the pump (high
spots can cause air pockets which
can air lock the pump). Seal the
suction pipe joints with teflon tape
or a teflon based pipe joint
compound. Joints must be air- and
water-tight. If the suction pipe can
suck air, the pump cannot pull
water from the well.
You have just completed the suction
piping for your new shallow well jet
pump. Please go to Page 6 for
discharge pipe and tank connections.
INSTALLATION FOR SURFACE
WATER (FIGURE 3)
1. The pump should be installed as
close to the water as possible, with
the fewest possible fittings
(especially elbows) in the suction
pipe. The suction pipe should be at
least as large as the suction port on
the pump.
2. Assemble a foot valve and suction
pipe (See Figure 3). Make sure that
the foot valve works freely. Use
teflon tape or a teflon-based pipe
joint compound on threaded pipe
joints. Protect the foot valve
assembly from fish, trash, etc, by
installing a screen around it (See
Figure 3).
3. Lower the pipe into the water until
the strainer is five feet above the
bottom. It should also be at least 10
feet below the water level in order
to prevent the pump from sucking
air.
4. Install a priming tee, priming plug,
and suction pipe to the pump (See
Figure 3). Support the pipe so that
there are no dips or sags in the pipe,
so it doesn’t strain the pump body,
and so that it slopes slightly upward
from the well to the pump (high
spots can cause air pockets which
can air lock the pump). Seal the
suction pipe joints with teflon tape
or a teflon based pipe joint
compound. Joints must be air- and
water-tight. If the suction pipe can
suck air, the pump cannot pull

the discharge port.
2. Run a pipe or reinforced hose from
one arm of the first tee to the port
on the pre-charged tank.
3. Connect the other end of the
discharge tee to your plumbing
system.
4. Check the pre-charge of air in the
tank with an ordinary tire gauge. The
pre-charge should be 2 psi less than
the cut-in setting of the pump’s
pressure switch. The pre-charge is
measured when there is no water
pressure in the tank. Your new pump
has a 30/50 psi switch, so adjust the
tank pre-charge pressure to 28 psi.
You have just completed the tank
connection for your jet pump.
Please go to Pages 7 and 8 for electrical
hookup.

WIRING CONNECTIONS
Hazardous voltage.
Disconnect power at
service panel before connecting pressure
switch.
Protect current carrying and grounding
conductors from cuts, grease, heat, oil,
and chemicals.
When replacing motor, check wiring
diagram on motor nameplate against
diagram, See Figure 7, Page 7. If they
are not the same, follow the diagram
on the motor.
CONNECTION PROCEDURE
1. Connect the ground wire first as
shown in Figure 7. The ground wire
must be a solid copper wire at least
as large as the power supply wires.
2. There must be a solid metal
connection between the pressure
switch and the motor for motor
grounding protection. If the pressure
switch is not connected to the motor,
connect the green ground screw in
the switch to the green ground screw
under the motor end cover. Use a
solid copper wire at least as large as
the power supply wires.
3. Connect the ground wire to a
grounded lead in a service panel, to a
metal underground water pipe, to a
metal well casing at least ten feet
(3M) long, or to a ground electrode
provided by the power company or
the hydro authority.
NOTE: If you are connecting the
motor to a 230 volt circuit using a
four-conductor cable, connect both
the neutral (white) and ground
(green) to the ground terminal. The
other two wires (two black wires or
one black and one red wire) are the
power supply wires.
4. Connect the power supply wires to
the pressure switch as shown in
Figure 7.
5. Replace the pressure switch cover.
Risk of sudden
starts. If motor has
stopped for unknown reasons, thermal
overload may restart it unexpectedly,
which could cause injury or property
damage.
Motor has automatic internal thermal
overload protection.
Disconnect power before servicing
motor.
If this procedure or the wiring diagrams
are confusing, consult a licensed
electrician.
You have now completed the wiring
for your pump.

Operation
PREPARING TO START THE PUMP
Never run pump
dry. Running pump
without water may cause pump to
overheat, damaging seal and possibly
causing burns to persons handling
pump. Fill pump with water before
starting.
Never run pump
against closed
discharge. To do so can boil water inside
pump, causing hazardous pressure in
unit, risk of explosion and possibly
scalding persons handling pump.
1. Remove the priming plug from the
pump and fill the pump (See Figure
8), fill all piping between the pump
and the well, and make sure that all
piping in the well is full. If you have
also installed a priming tee in the
suction piping, remove the plug
from the tee and fill the suction
piping.
2. Replace all fill plugs.
3. Power on! Start the pump. If you
don’t have water after 2 or 3
minutes, stop the pump and remove
the fill plugs. Refill the pump and
piping. You may have to repeat this
several times in order to get all the
trapped air out of the piping. A
pump lifting water 25’ may take as
long as 15 minutes to prime.
4. After the pump has built up
pressure in the system and shut off,
check the pressure switch operation
by opening a faucet or two and
running enough water out to bleed
off pressure until the pump starts.
The pump should start when
pressure drops to 30 psi and stop
when pressure reaches 50 psi. Run
the pump through one or two
complete cycles to verify correct
operation. This will also help clean
the system of dirt and scale
dislodged during installation.
Maintenance
Pump and piping need not be
disconnected to repair or replace
motor or seal (See Figure 11).
If motor is replaced, replace the seal
plate O-ring and shaft seal. (Figure 29,
Ref. Nos 5 and 6, Page 15). Keep these
items on hand for future use.
Be sure to prime pump before starting.
NOTE: Check motor label for
lubrication instructions. The
mechanical shaft seal in the pump is
water lubricated and self-adjusting.
NOTE: Drain pump when
disconnecting from service or when it
might freeze.
WINTERIZING
PRECHARGE TANK
1. Disconnect pressure switch tube at
pump body and drain pump.
2. Remove priming plug to vent pump;
drain pressure tank and all piping to
a point below frost line.
3. Drain any piping that may be cut off
from system drain due to check
valves in pipe, etc.
STANDARD TANK
1. Follow steps 1, 2, and 3 above.

3. Remove rotating half of seal by
placing two screwdrivers under seal
plate and carefully prying up (Figure
15). Seal plate will slide off shaft,
bringing seal with it.
IMPORTANT: Be sure you do not
scratch or mar shaft; if shaft is marred,
it must be dressed smooth with fine
emery or crocus cloth before installing
new seal. DO NOT reduce shaft
diameter.
4. Place seal plate face down on flat
surface and tap out stationary half
of seal.
IMPORTANT: Be sure you tap on the
ceramic seat, not on copper heat sink.
Do not disturb heat sink (Ref. No. 4,
Figure 29).
INSTALLING NEW SEAL
1. Clean seal cavity in copper heat sink.
Do not disturb heat sink. (If heat
sink is moved or dislodged, see
instructions for “Copper Heat Sink
Installation,” Page 12.
2. Wet outer edge of O-Ring on
ceramic seat with liquid soap. Be
sparing!
3. Put clean cardboard washer on seal
face. Polished face of ceramic seat
should be up. With thumb pressure,
press ceramic seal half firmly and
squarely into seal cavity in copper
heat sink (See Figure 16). If seal will
not seat correctly, remove, placing
seal face up on bench. Reclean
cavity. Seal should now seat
correctly.
4. If seal does not seat correctly after
recleaning cavity, place a cardboard
washer over polished seal face and
carefully press into place using a
piece of standard 3/4” pipe as a
press.
IMPORTANT: Be sure you do not
scratch seal face.
5. Dispose of cardboard washer and
recheck seal face to be sure it is free

IMPORTANT: If the copper heat sink
moves or shifts during seal removal, it
should be removed and reinstalled.
NOTE: First, follow instructions under
“Pump Disassembly”.
Remove ceramic portion of sink (See
“Removing Old Seal”). Grasp copper
cone with fingers at the large end and
move back and forth. Be careful not to
deform it.
COPPER HEAT SINK INSTALLATION
1. Clean off all sealant and foreign
material.
2. Clean out heat sink cavity in seal
plate.
3. Apply thin layer of non-hardening
Permatex on outer surface of heat
sink (part that fits into cavity, Figure
21).
4. Using standard 7/8” socket, bolt, and
13⁄8” washer pull heat sink into cavity
(See Figure 22).
5. Clean out any surplus Permatex from
insert cavity where new seal will be
located (Figure 23).
6. Follow steps 2 through 11 under

5. Prime pump according to
instructions; see Operation.
6. Check for leaks.
TANK OPERATION CYCLE (MODEL
3P715B)
1. Tank nearly empty–air expands
filling area above vinyl separator
(Figure 24A).
2. Water begins to enter tank–air is
compressed above separator as it
fills with water (Figure 24B).
3. Pump-up cycle completed–air now
compressed to cut off setting of
pressure switch (Figure 24C).
4. Water being drawn from
tank–compressed tank air forces
water out of separator (Figure 24D).
5. Separator completely empty–new
cycle ready to begin (Figure 24A).
TESTING FOR BLADDER LEAKAGE
1. Disconnect power to pump.
2. Drain all water from tank bladder
by opening faucet closest to tank.
3. Remove valve cap from valve and
release all pressure possible by
depressing valve core. When air
stops coming from valve, remove
valve core to release remaining
pressure.
4. Disconnect piping from elbow on
tank flange.
5. If bladder leaks, water will run out
of valve. If so, replace bladder. See
instructions below.
BLADDER REPLACEMENT
To be sure cover
flange cannot blow
off of tank, release all air from system
before removing nuts from cover flange.
1.Disconnect power to pump.
2.Follow steps 2 through 5 under
“Testing For Bladder Leakage”,
above.
3.Remove nuts from tank cover
flange. Tap cover flange to break
seal and remove.
4.Bladder will not come out in one
piece. Hold bladder with pliers and
cut wherever convenient with single
edge razor blade or sharp knife.
Continue holding and cutting until
bladder is removed.
5. Clean and dry inside of tank.
6. Before bladder can be inserted into
tank, it must be tightly rolled up as
follows:
a.Place bladder on clean surface
with opening to one end and
flatten to force air out. Pull ends
out flat (See Figure 25).
b.To get tightest possible wrap,
start on one side at top and
TIGHTLY roll bladder diagonally
to other side (See Figure 26). To
force out as much air as possible,
roll toward bladder neck
opening.
7. To help insert bladder, sprinkle
outside of it with talcum powder.
Push tightly rolled bladder into
tank, hooking bladder neck ring
over edge of tank head.
8. Insert arm in bladder and push
sidewalls outward. It is not
necessary to remove all wrinkles
from bladder.
9. Clean tank head sealing surface
and lid ring groove of flange.

Maintenance (Continued)
10. Pull lip ring of bladder through tank
opening and seat it against tank
head.
11. Clean sealing surface and groove of
cover flange; place on tank (See
Figure 20).
NOTE: Be sure elbow lines up with hole
in base.
12. Tighten nuts as follows:
a.Hand tighten all nuts.
b.Tighten one nut snug.
c. Tighten opposite nut snug.
d.Proceed, tightening opposite pairs
of nuts to a snug fit.
e.Recheck all nuts, using same
pattern. Be sure all nuts are tight
and that you have a good seal.
IMPORTANT: Do not overtighten; you
may twist studs off of tank. If you have
a torque wrench, tighten to 85 inch-
pounds of torque.
13. Stand tank on feet and reconnect
piping.
14. Recharge tank to proper air
pressure.
15. Prime pump (See Page 9).
TO CHECK TANK AIR CHARGE
If drawdown (amount of water that
comes out of tank per pump cycle)
decreases significantly, check as follows:
1. To check air charge in tank, shut OFF
electric power to pump, open faucet
near tank, and drain completely.
2. At the air valve in top of tank, check
air pressure with a standard tire
gauge. Air pressure should be 2 psi
below pump pressure switch cut-in
setting.
3. If the air pressure is more than 2 psi
below the cut-in setting, add air to
the tank. Use an air compressor or a
portable air storage tank.
4. Use soap or liquid detergent to check
for air leaks around air valve.
Continuous bubbling indicates a leak.
If necessary, install new core in air
valve. This is the same as those used
for automobile tubeless tires.
HOW TO HANDLE A GASEOUS WELL
If well water contains gases, suspend a
pipe, closed at the bottom and open at
the top, so that it surrounds the suction
pipe inlet (See Figure 28). Since the
gases rise in the well casing, the water
sucked down through the pipe and into
pump suction is gas-free. This type of
well must be vented to the outside of
any enclosure.
