INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Lowering Pump Into Well
CAUTION: If your pump depth will be
200 ft. or more, you may want to consider
contacting a professional well pump
installer. Piping filled with water, along with
the weight of the pump, will be very heavy.
Be sure to have assistance during pump
installation.
REMINDER: Pump and all piping must be
assembled and securely connected before the
assembly is lowered into the well.
1. Tie one end of safety rope (sold separately)
securely to pump safety eyelet and the other
end to the well cap. This is your only security
against losing the pump down the well. (Fig
1)
CAUTION: 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. Do not let the cable drag over the edge
of the well casing since this may cause damage
to the insulation.
2. Lower pump to approximately 20 ft. below
maximum drawdown of the water or a
minimum of 10 ft. off the bottom. Do NOT set
pump on bottom of well. (Fig 2)
