MOTOR SWITCH SETTINGS
Dual-voltage motors without cords (motors that can oper-
ate at either 115 or 230 volts), are set at the factory to 230
volts. Do not change motor voltage setting if line voltage
is 230 volts, or if you have a single voltage motor.
NOTE: Never wire a 115 volt motor to a 230 volt line.
Remove Motor End Cover
If you have a dual-voltage motor, and will connect it to
115 volts, follow the procedure below.
You will need to remove the motor end cover to change
the voltage setting.
Your motor terminal board (located under the motor end
cover) should look like the one below.

ELECTRICAL
Ground motor before connecting to electrical
power supply.
Failure to ground motor can cause severe or fatal
electrical shock hazard.
Explosion hazard. Do not ground to a gas supply
line.
To avoid dangerous or fatal electrical shock, turn
OFF power to motor before working on electrical
connections.
Supply voltage must be within ±10% of nameplate
voltage. Incorrect voltage can cause fire or serious
damage to motor and voids warranty. If in doubt consult
a licensed electrician.
Use wire size specified in Wiring Chart (Table II,
Page 7). If possible, connect pump to a separate
branch circuit with no other appliances on it.
