Description
Teel deep well submersible pumps are designed for use in 4” (or larger) interior
diameter wells in home, farm, and industrial deep well applications. Units include
pump and motor completely assembled. Three wire units require a control box
which must be ordered separately.
Hazardous voltage. Can shock, burn, or kill. To reduce risk of
electrical shock, install pump in accordance with latest United
States National Electrical Code (NEC), Article 250. Connect motor grounding wire (green
wire) to power supply system ground using copper conductor at least as large as
conductors supplying power to motor.
Pump is designed for use in a water well supplying a domestic water system and
has not been investigated for use in other applications. Do not use this pump in
swimming pools.
Pumps 4RH01 thru 4RH06, 4RG76 thru 4RG84, 4RG94 thru 4RG97, and 4RG99 are
thermoplastic discharge.
Pumps 4P847A thru 4P851A and 4P852 thru 4P856 are cast iron discharge.

General Safety Information
When built-in
overheating
protection is not provided, use with an
approved overload equipped motor
control that matches motor input in full
load amps. Select or adjust overload
elements in accordance with control
instructions.
When built-in overheating protection is
provided, use with an approved motor
control that matches motor input in full
load amperes. Hazardous
pressure.
Submersible pumps can develop very high
pressure in some situations. To prevent
tank blowup, install a pressure relief
valve able to pass full pump flow at 75
PSI. Install relief valve between pump and
tank. Do not allow pump,
pressure tank,
piping, or any other system component
containing water to freeze. Freezing may
damage system, leading to injury or
flooding. Allowing pump or system to
freeze will void warranty.
1. Be sure all plumbing and wiring
conform to national and local codes
and ordinances.
2. Since most submersible pump
problems are electrical, all electrical
work must be done properly.
Therefore, have all electrical
hookup work or electrical
service done by a qualified
electrician or serviceman only!
3. The power supply for a submersible
pump should be a separate circuit,
independent of all other circuits. Be
sure it is equipped with a fuse and
disconnect box of ample capacity.
4. On rural installations it is better to
have the power supply be free of
any buildings, preferably on a direct
line from the transformer, so that in
case of fire the wires will be
protected from burning off and the
water supply will not be cut off.
5. Before working on motor, its
connected load or control box and
wiring, disconnect electrical power.
If disconnect switch is out of sight of
work location, lock switch in the
open position and tag it to prevent
unexpected application of power.
6. Shut off power when voltage drops
below 105 volts on 115 volt
installations and 210 volts on 230
volt installations to prevent motor
damage.
7. Be sure to provide adequate
ventilation for pressure switch and
control box to prevent moisture
damage to components.
8. Periodically check well seal at top of
well to prevent surface water
contamination.
9. Have a competent serviceman check
the installation at three year
intervals for preventive maintenance
on electrical controls.
10.PROTECT power cable from
scratches, cuts, or abrasions from
sharp objects or scraping on well
casing when lowering pump into
well.
11.Do not kink or cut power cable. Do
not allow power cable to come into
contact with oil, grease, hot
surfaces, or chemicals.
12.To reduce risk of electrical shock,
installation must comply with most
recent National Electrical Code (NEC)
Article 250 (Grounding).
Motor is supplied with a green
ground wire. Connect green motor
ground wire to a grounded metal
raceway system or building ground
system. Bond together and ground
all metal components in installation
(well casing, metal well pipe, motor,
etc.) to building ground system.

General Safety Information
(Continued)
Install a good grounding bond
between disconnect box, control
box, and piping system. Tape cable
closely to discharge pipe at intervals
of ten feet or less.
13.NEVER leave control box, fused
disconnect switch, or pressure
control switch covers open (either
partially or completely) when not
being worked on by a competent
electrician or repairman.
14.Always use caution when operating
electrical controls in damp areas. If
possible, avoid all contact with
electrical equipment during thunder
storms or extreme damp conditions.
15.Install all electrical equipment in
protected area to prevent
mechanical damage which could
produce serious electrical shock
and/or equipment failure.
16.Pump is designed to pump water
only. Fire or explosion
hazard! Do not
pump flammable liquids such as gasoline,
fuel oil, kerosene, etc., with this pump.
Pump water only with this pump.
17.DO NOT handle pump with wet
hands or when standing in water as
fatal electrical shock could occur.
Disconnect main power supply
before handling pump for any
reason.
Preinstallation Risk of electrical
shock. Connect
motor ground wire to grounded metal
raceway system or power system ground.
Bond (ground) pump and all metal
components to building ground system in
accordance with National Electrical Code
(NEC) requirements.
Most submersible pump problems are
electrical. To reduce problems, have all
electrical hook-up work or service work
done by a qualified electrician or
serviceman only.
To save added expense and extra trips,
complete as many as possible of the
following procedures before going to
the installation site.
1. Examine pump for damage. Make
sure check valve works properly. For
3-wire units, motor and control box
horsepower and voltage must match
exactly.
NOTE: All units are supplied with extra
label for above ground pump
identification. Place label in
conspicuous location (on control box,
etc.) for future reference.
2. Check electrical supply for correct
fusing, wire size, transformer size,
and adequate grounding.
3. Follow wiring directions in the
control box and make momentary
tests to see that motor runs. If test is
satisfactory, proceed to Step 4 (cable
splice).
4. First check cable size against
Submersible Wire Size Charts
(below). Use extreme care; this is a
very important step. If required
length falls between two wire sizes,
use the larger wire size (smaller
number) of the two.
IMPORTANT: Use of wire sizes smaller
than those specified in charts will cause
low starting voltage, may cause early
pump failure and will void warranty.
Larger wire sizes may be used for better
economy of operation. Be sure voltage
at pressure switch or fuse box is
between the following limits:
• 115 Volts Rated – Between 105
and 125 Volts
• 230 Volts Rated – Between 210
and 250 Volts
5. Use butt connectors and plastic
sleeves included in the splice kit to
make underwater cable splices.
IMPORTANT: Do not handle motor or
pump by power cable or motor leads!
Damage to cable will result!
IMPORTANT: Follow instructions
carefully to make a watertight splice! A
leak in the splice can result in:
a. Damage to motor winding.
b. Electrolytic deterioration of the
joint, resulting in an open circuit.

HEAT SHRINK SPLICING
FOR #8 WIRE CABLE
(Splice to #10 or smaller wire only)
(See Figure 2)
NOTE: When splicing to larger wires,
purchase splice kit to fit and follow
splice manufacturer’s instructions.
1. Remove 3/8” insulation from end of
motor pigtail leads and from drop
cable leads.
2. Place heat shrink tubing over
motor pigtail leads.
3. Insert leads into butt connector and
crimp with crimping tool. Pull leads
to check connection.
4. Center tubing over butt connector
and apply heat with a propane
torch (a match or lighter will not
supply enough heat).
NOTE: Keep torch moving; too much
concentrated heat in one place will
ruin tubing and may damage wires.
5. When tubing begins to shrink,
increase concentration of heat at
center of tube. As center of tube
collapses on wire, work heat out to
each end until entire tube is
collapsed tight around wire.
6. When splicing is complete, check
pump for continuous wiring
connections by running it in a
barrel of water. Insulation check
with ohm meter should be made at
this time. SEE INSULATION AND
CONTINUITY TEST.
INSULATION AND CONTINUITY TEST
Do this test after splicing is complete
and pump is being test run in a tank of
water. Repeat test after installation in
well but before final electrical hookup
is made to control box or pressure
switch (See Figures 3 and 4).
1. Zero the ohmmeter by clipping the
leads together and adjusting the
zero ohm knob until the needle
indicates zero. Zero the ohmmeter
before each use or every time
selector switch is changed.
2. Clip one ohmmeter lead to bare
cable end.
3. Clip the other lead to edge of steel
tank in which pump and cable are
submerged. If pump is already in
the well, clip lead to metal
discharge pipe, metal well casing,
or motor ground lead.
4. A reading of 20,000 ohms or less
indicates a breakdown in the
insulation; in this case pull the
pump. If reading is between 20,000
and 500,000 ohms, cable or splice is
damaged; lift pump and slowly
raise cable from water (DO NOT try
to use the cable to take the weight
of the pump) with ohmmeter still
connected. When trouble spot
moves clear of the water,
ohmmeter needle will swing
toward ∞.
Installation
Install pump in a well which is sand
free, straight, and has sufficient flow
of water to supply the pump. Clear
well of sand and any other foreign
matter with a test pump before
installing your new submersible pump.
NOTE: Using the submersible pump to
clean the well will void the warranty.
When drilling a new well in an area
where sand is a problem, a sand screen
should be installed to protect the
pumping unit.
IMPORTANT: You will need the
following tools and fittings to properly
install your submersible pump.
• Pipe Wrenches
• Pipe vises or clamps
• Tripod
• Chain hoist or block and tackle
• Fittings
• Enough cable
• Tape or clamps to fasten cable
to discharge pipe
• Discharge pipe on convenient
lengths

Installation (Continued)
You may also need a pressure tank and
enough pipe fittings to connect the
discharge pipe to the tank, depending
on the job requirements.
1. Chlorinate the well first. A good
practice is to drop 24 to 48 HTH
(chlorine) tablets into the well
before lowering the pump into the
well. This will prevent contam-
ination and the growth of iron
bacteria which could later plug the
well and the pump. The chlorinated
water will be pumped out of the
system in testing the pump flow.
2. BE SURE the top edge of the well
casing is perfectly smooth; sharp or
jagged edges can cut or scrape the
cable and cause a short.
Before going any further, it’s a good
plan to double check the system’s
electrical ratings. Make sure the
motor, control and power source are
all of the same rated voltage, phase
and cycles, and that the cable splice
color code has been followed, if
applicable.
FOR A NEW WELL INSTALLATION,
YOU WILL NEED THE FOLLOWING
DATA:
1. Depth of well.
2. Capacity of well in gallons per
minute.
3. Pumping water level at that
capacity.
Pumping water level is the level of
water in your well while the pump is
running (See Figure 5). Select pump
series and horsepower based on your
water requirements and well
conditions.
OLD WELL INSTALLATION
1. Replace a submersible with the same
size and horsepower as the old
pump. Set the new pump at the
same depth as the old pump.
2. If replacing a jet pump, expect to set
the submersible deeper in the well
because the submersible will pump
more water than the jet pump. Be
sure the new submersible is set at
least ten feet above the bottom of
the well.
3. Use the following procedure to find
well depth.
a. Remove existing equipment from
the well.
b. Tie a fairly heavy weight (cloth-
wrapped rock, metal object, etc.)
to a strong cord. Lower the
weight to the bottom of the well
(See Figure 6A).
c. Pull up any slack so cord is taut
(See Figure 6B).
d. Mark cord at top of well casing,
remove from well and measure.
This is the well depth.
REMOVING OLD EQUIPMENT FROM
THE WELL
1. A pump mounted on plastic pipe can
normally be pulled by hand without
the need of a tripod.
2. If the pump being pulled is installed
with steel pipe or is otherwise too
heavy for one or two men to handle,
use a tripod for easy, safe removal
from the well.
3. You will need the following:
a. A homemade tripod (See Figure
7). Use three 2x4s eight feet long.
Drill a 5/8” or 3/4” hole about six
inches from one end. Fasten
together loosely with a long 1/2”
bolt or a piece of 1/2” threaded
steel rod with nuts and plain
washers. Assembly should be
loose enough to allow legs to

bare rod should show to take
the hook of the block and
tackle. Prevent legs from
collapsing by driving stakes into
the ground and nailing legs to
stakes.
b. Block and tackle.
c. Two homemade pipe clamps.
Make each pipe clamp from two
pieces of 2x4, 12” long. Drill two
bolt holes to take 1/2” bolts or
threaded rod. Notch for pipe; do
not notch more than 1/2” deep
(See Figure 8).
4. Place one clamp around pipe and
lift, using a rope sling and block
and tackle. As pipe coupling comes
up above well head, attach second
pipe clamp to the pipe at the well
top BELOW the coupling. Unscrew
upper pipe length from coupling.
IMPORTANT: Pump is hanging on
coupling; to be sure pump does not
slip back down into well, be sure
coupling does not come off with upper
pipe.
PUMP INSTALLATION
1. Lay the pump a foot or two from
the well, with pump discharge
away from the well.
2. Lay out plastic pipe, safety rope,
hose clamps, tape, and wire cable.
3. Assemble all components
horizontally on the ground; lower
them into well after assembly.
a. Install plastic pipe adapter in the
pump discharge tapping, using
pipe joint compound or teflon
tape.

IMPORTANT: Be sure to work on a
clean, smooth surface to avoid damage
to the power cable and the plastic pipe.
Cut off sealed end of plastic pipe
with a hacksaw.
c. Slide torque arrester (purchase
separately) onto plastic pipe
about 10” from pump discharge.
Pull motor lead cable through
one of small outside holes in

d. Slip two hose clamps over the
end of the plastic pipe. Push
plastic pipe onto the adapter all
the way to the shoulder of the
adapter. Tighten the two hose
clamps, making sure that the
clamp tightening screws are on
opposite sides of the pipe and
away from the motor lead wires
to prevent damage to insulation.
Tape the tab ends of the clamp to
the pipe with plastic tape.
e. Slide torque arrester down to
about 6” from the end of the
plastic pipe. Wrap with enough
tape to prevent the torque
arrester from sliding up the pipe
while the unit is being lowered
into the well. Install a cable guard
every 20 feet along the pipe.
f. If you have not already done so,
splice the electrical cable to the
motor wire leads according to
the directions under Sections 5, 6
and 7 in Preinstallation.
g. Unroll electrical cable alongside
the plastic pipe. Be sure that
insulation is not damaged and
that all kinks are straightened
out.

Installation (Continued)
PITLESS ADAPTER INSTALLATIONS
In this system, connection of piping in
the well to the system piping is by
means of the pitless adapter (See
Figure 9, Page 7).
Lower pump and pipe into well; pitless
adapter half on discharge pipe slides
into receiver attached to well casing
below frost line. Piping in well is much
the same as with a standard well seal; to
pipe system from well to house,
simply install the correct length of
plastic pipe and the appropriate fittings.
STANDARD WELL SEAL
INSTALLATIONS
In this system, the piping in the well
extends through the well seal and is
connected above ground to the system
piping by means of a tee or elbow (See
Figure 9, Page 7). This system provides
a sanitary, easily accessible installation.
IMPORTANT: A standard well seal
must be protected from freezing.
1. On a STANDARD PRESSURE TANK
INSTALLATION, assemble bleeder
orifice and pipe assembly as shown
in Figure 10A, Page 8.
On a PRECHARGED TANK
INSTALLATION, assemble system as
shown in Figure 10B, Page 8 (no
bleeder orifice required).
2. Attach unit used to plastic pipe
with two stainless steel hose
clamps. Tighten clamps securely.
NOTE: Be sure to assemble the tee to
the pipe above the well seal to prevent
dropping the pipe and pump down
the well as you lower it.
3. Assemble eyebolt (for safety rope),
lockwasher and nut in the tapping
on underside of well seal.
4. Tape electrical cable to the pipe
about every five feet (See Figure
11). Use only 11⁄2to 2 wraps of tape
to allow the cable to move slightly.
Tape spliced connections to the
pipe to eliminate rubbing against
well casing. Leave four to five feet
of slack at the upper end to allow
for plastic pipe stretch.
5. Tie safety rope to top of pump in
holes provided. Tape end of rope
to prevent unraveling. Tape safety
rope to pipe every 20 feet, making
sure there is no slack in rope. Tie
securely to eyebolt on bottom of
well seal (See Figure 12) and tape
end of rope. The complete
assembly is now ready to be
lowered into the well.
6. Lowering pump into the well:
IMPORTANT: Never support the
weight of pump and piping by the
electrical cable, as this weight will
break the cable connections. A helper
will be needed to handle the other
end of the assembly.
a. Lift the pump with the plastic
pipe and wire cable assembly
over your shoulder. BE SURE you
do not kink the plastic pipe (See
Figure 13).
b. Guide pump and piping into the
well. BE SURE you protect the
electrical cable when lowering
unit to avoid cuts, nicks, scrapes
or other damage by the edge of
the well casing (See Figure 14).
c. Have an assistant bring the
piping assembly toward you as
needed. Keep the pipe, cable,
and rope free of dirt, grass, or
other foreign matter.
d. Well seal installation: When
the entire assembly is in the
well, make sure seal is seated.
Tighten the four bolts in the
well seal evenly.
Pitless adapter installation:
Attach, to the top of the pitless
adapter, a length of pipe which
will reach to within 6”-8” of the
well head. Use this as a handle
(adding a second length with a
90° elbow on top and a 12”
length of pipe projecting to one

side will make this easier) for
seating the pitless adapter in the
well casing. When adapter is
seated, remove second extension
and 90° handle (if used). Leave
dummy extension pipe in the
pitless adapter to make later
servicing easier. Install cap and
conduit.
e. When pump is at desired depth,
install throttle valve for
preliminary test run. Wire 3-wire
pump through the control box,
following instructions in box
regarding color coding of wires,
etc. Wire 2-wire pump direct to
the pressure switch. Test cable for
continuity with ohmmeter.
Risk of electrical
shock. Since most
submersible pump problems are electrical,
all electrical work must be done properly.
Therefore, have all electrical hookup work
or electrical service work done by a
qualified electrician or serviceman only!
With pump discharge partly open, run
pump until water is clear of sand or any
other impurities. Gradually open
discharge.
IMPORTANT: Be sure you do not stop
pump before water runs clear. This may
take several hours. If pump stops with
sand in it, it will lock.
If pump lowers water in the well far
enough to lose prime, either lower
pump in the well (if possible) or throttle
discharge to capacity of the well.
f. If well is low capacity, use a low
water level control.
g. In the line to the tank, install
required components as shown in
Figure 9, Page 7, depending on
tank type used.
Use ONLY
submersible cable
to pump.
7. Two-wire pump hookup: Wire the
fused electrical disconnect box to
water system pressure switch and
from pressure switch to motor (See
Figures 15 and 16A). Power cable
wires are not color coded; ground
wire is green.
Risk of electrical
shock! To reduce
risk of electrical shock, adequately ground
motor to a grounded metal raceway
system with ground lead provided. Refer
to the most recent National Electrical
Code (NEC) Article 250 (Grounding) for
additional information. All wiring should
be done by a qualified electrician.
8. Three-wire pump hookup: Make
sure the color of the wire leads from
the motor attach to the same color
of the submersible drop cable. The
submersible wire drop cable colors
then indicate which control box
terminal they connect to:
R = Red Y = Yellow
B = Black G = Ground

9. The Precharged Tank System uses a
flexible diaphragm or bladder to
separate the air and water in the
tank. The air chamber is pre-
charged through a tire valve on the
tank to a pressure 2 PSI below the
cut-in pressure of the pump.
Because the air is not in contact
with the water, it is not normally
absorbed by the water (See Figure
17). With this type of pressure
system, no air introduction or air
volume control fittings are needed
and the piping in the well is
simplified. The precharged tank
system has fewer moving parts,
simpler installation, and is the more
reliable of the two systems. Check
pre-charge annually.
As a precharged tank will deliver
more water between cycles

(drawdown) than the same size
standard tank, a physically smaller
tank can do the same job. The
drawdown (water delivered
between pump cycles) is the
common factor when comparing
precharged to standard tanks; total
volume of each tank is not
comparable.
10.A Waterlogged Tank: The purpose
of the pressure tank is to allow a
certain amount of water to be
drawn before the pressure drops
enough to cause the pump to start.
Without a pressure tank, the pump
is controlled only by the pressure
switch. Just one use of the water tap
would cause the pump to rapidly
start and stop numerous times,
resulting in premature failure of the
pump motor. The same condition
occurs when a tank is waterlogged.
The air supply in the tank is
gradually absorbed by the water,
leaving little or no water available
for drawdown. The pump must cycle
with increasing frequency to deliver
the same amount of water.
Waterlogging can be caused by
either failure of the air volume
control on a standard tank system or
rupture of the bladder in a
precharged tank system.
NOTE: Should you be replacing your
pump, be sure that the tank system is in
good operating condition, as a
waterlogged tank may have caused
your pump failure.

SERVICING SUBMERSIBLE MOTOR
AND CONTROLS
The following is included to assist in
motor installation and servicing. These
procedures are limited to the motor
and control system; they do not include
pump requirements.
CABLE IDENTIFICATION WHEN
COLOR CODE IS LOST (3-WIRE ONLY)
If the colors on the individual drop
cables cannot be determined and the
leads cannot be positively identified,
proceed as follows:
1. Disconnect all three drop cables
from the control box. For temporary
identification, tie a numbered tag to
each cable (1, 2, 3).
2. Using an ohmmeter, check the
resistance between cables as follows:
Unknown Value:
Cable 1 to Cable 2
Cable 1 to Cable 3
Cable 2 to Cable 3
Known Value:
Lowest - Black to Yellow
Intermediate - Red to Yellow
Highest - Black to Red
NOTE: The “yellow” cable is that giving
lowest and intermediate readings and
the “red” cable gives highest and
intermediate readings.
Example:
1 to 2 gives 7 Ohms (highest reading)
1 to 3 gives 5 Ohms (intermediate
reading)
2 to 3 gives 2 Ohms (lowest reading)
Cable 3 gave both intermediate and
lowest reading.

Important Electrical
Grounding Information
Hazardous
voltage. Can
shock, burn, or kill. To reduce the risk of
electrical shock during pump operation,
ground and bond the pump and motor
as follows:
1. To reduce risk of electrical shock
from metal parts of the assembly
other than the pump, bond
together all metal parts accessible
at the well head (including metal
discharge pipe, metal well casing,
and the like). Use a metal bonding
conductor at least as large as the
power cable conductors running
down the well to the pump's
motor.
2. Clamp or weld (or both if
necessary) this bonding conductor
to the grounding means provided
with the pump, which will be the
equipment-grounding terminal, the
grounding conductor on the pump
housing, or an equipment-
grounding lead. The equipment-
grounding lead, when provided,
will be the conductor having green
insulation; it may also have one or
more yellow stripes.
3. Ground the pump, motor, and any
metallic conduit that carrys power
cable conductors. Ground these
back to the service by connecting a
copper conductor from the pump,
motor, and conduit to the
grounding screw provided within
the supply-connection box wiring
compartment. This conductor must
be at least as large as the circuit
conductors supplying the pump.

Limited Warranty
DAYTON 18-MONTH LIMITED WARRANTY. Teel®deep well submersible pumps, Models covered in this manual, are warranted by Dayton Electric Mfg. Co.
(Dayton) to the original user against defects in workmanship or materials under normal use for eighteen months after date of purchase. Any part which is
determined to be defective in material or workmanship and returned to an authorized service location, as Dayton designates, shipping costs prepaid, will be, as
the exclusive remedy, repaired or replaced at Dayton’s option. For limited warranty claim procedures, see PROMPT DISPOSITION below. This limited warranty
gives purchasers specific legal rights which vary from jurisdiction to jurisdiction.
LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. To the extent allowable under applicable law, Dayton’s liability for consequential and incidental damages is expressly disclaimed.
Dayton’s liability in all events is limited to and shall not exceed the purchase price paid.
WARRANTY DISCLAIMER. Dayton has made a diligent effort to provide product information and illustrate the products in this literature accurately; however,
such information and illustrations are for the sole purpose of identification, and do not express or imply a warranty that the products are MERCHANTABLE, or
FIT FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, or that the products will necessarily conform to the illustrations or descriptions.
Except as provided below, no warranty or affirmation of fact, expressed or implied, other than as stated in the “LIMITED WARRANTY” above is made or
authorized by Dayton.
PRODUCT SUITABILITY. Many jurisdictions have codes and regulations governing sales, construction, installation, and/or use of products for certain purposes,
which may vary from those in neighboring areas. While Dayton attempts to assure that its products comply with such codes, it cannot guarantee compliance,
and cannot be responsible for how the product is installed or used. Before purchase and use of a product, review the product applications, and all applicable
national and local codes and regulations, and be sure that the product, installation, and use will comply with them.
Certain aspects of disclaimers are not applicable to consumer products; e.g., (a) some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or
consequential damages, so the above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you; (b) also, some jurisdictions do not allow a limitation on how long an implied
warranty lasts, consequently the above limitation may not apply to you; and (c) by law, during the period of this Limited Warranty, any implied warranties of
implied merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose applicable to consumer products purchased by consumers, may not be excluded or otherwise
disclaimed.
PROMPT DISPOSITION. Dayton will make a good faith effort for prompt correction or other adjustment with respect to any product which proves to be
defective within limited warranty. For any product believed to be defective within limited warranty, first write or call dealer from whom the product was
purchased. Dealer will give additional directions. If unable to resolve satisfactorily, write to Dayton at address below, giving dealer’s name, address, date, and
number of dealer’s invoice, and describing the nature of the defect. Title and risk of loss pass to buyer on delivery to common carrier. If product was damaged in
transit to you, file claim with carrier.

4. If box is too hot, circuit breakers may trip or fuses blow. Ventilate or shade box.
Move away from heat source
5. If problem has not been found, check motor and control box. Use test procedures
that follow
Ground (Insulation 1. Ohmmeter Setting: Highest scale (usually Rx100K or Rx10,000)
Resistance) Test 2. Terminal Connections: One ohmmeter lead to “Ground” screw on control box and touch

box disconnected) 3. Ohmmeter Reading: Pointer should remain at infinity (∞) and not deflect
Risk of electrical shock.
Short capacitor across terminals before testing.
Capacitor Tests 1. Ohmmeter Setting: Rx1000
(Power to control 2. Terminal connections: Connect ohmmeter leads to black and orange wires out of capacitor case
box disconnected) 3. Ohmmeter Reading: Pointer should swing toward “zero” and “float” back to (∞). Capacitor
is shorted if pointer does not move back to (∞), open if it does move from (∞)
4. To retest capacitor, reverse ohmmeter connection to capacitor terminals
