IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE INSTALLATION

WARNING: FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS MAY CAUSE SERIOUS BODILY
INJURY AND/OR PROPERTY DAMAGE.
1. All piping and electrical wiring must adhere to state and local codes. If there are no state or local
electrical codes the electrical wiring must follow the National Electrical Code, NFPA 70. Check with
appropriate community agencies, or contact your local electrical and pump professionals.
2. Install tank as close as possible to the pump pressure switch to reduce friction loss and elevation
difference between the tank, water supply main and switch.
3. After installation, be sure the pressure switch is set low enough to shut the pump off. If all valves are
closed and the pressure switch setting is too high, the pump will run continuously without water flow
causing overheating and damage to the pump.
4. A pressure relief valve must be installed in the piping adjacent to the pump tank.
5. The following may cause severe damage to tank and/or piping and will void warranty.
• Failure to protect tank against below-freezing temperatures.
• Pumping chemicals or corrosive liquids.
• Pumping gasoline or other flammable liquids.
• Operation at pressures greater than 100 PSI with no relief valve.
• Pumping liquids hotter than 120°F.
WARNING: Improper installation, adjustment, alteration, service or maintenance can cause
DEATH, SERIOUS BODILY INJURY OR PROPERTY DAMAGE. Refer to this manual for further assistance.
tank to explode. Properly sized pressure relief valve must be installed in piping
adjacent to pump tank. Failure to follow these instructions could result in death
or serious injury.
WARNING: Explosion Hazard. Over-pressurized water can cause water
