in the discharge tee to the 1" male adapter on the tank
cross inlet. Set pressure in the diaphragm pressure
tank to 2 pounds less the cut-in pressure of the pump.
The cut-in pressure of these pumps is factory preset
to 20 PSI. If this cut-in setting has not been changed,
then the diaphragm pressure tank should be set to 18
PSI. Total installation should look like the shallow well
drawing below.
To prime, remove plug

case. Fill piping and
pump with water until
the water overflows
from the top of pump
case. Replace plug and
tighten to seal. Install
pressure gauge. Open

house. Start motor. If
pump is offset from well
4 feet or more, it may take a few minutes for pump to
prime. Failure to prime in 5 minutes: Stop motor,
remove pressure gauge plug from discharge tee, add
