Pump Installation
1. Bolt pump to solid, level foundation.
2. Support all piping connected to the pump.
3. Wrap 1-1/2 to two layers of Teflon™ tape clockwise (as you face end of
pipe) on all male threads being attached to pump.
4. Tighten joints hand tight plus 1-1/2 turns. Do not overtighten.
NOTICE: Install pump as close to well head as possible. Long piping runs
and many fittings create friction and reduce flow.
NOTICE: For long horizontal pipe runs, install a priming tee between check
valve and well head as shown in Figure 5. For driven point installations,
install a check valve as shown in Figure 6. Be sure check valve flow arrow
points toward pump.
Use schedule 80 or iron pipe. See Installation for more information.

Use only
Teflon™ tape or Teflon™ based joint compounds for
making all threaded connections to the pump itself. 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.
