safety instructions carefully before installing pump.
This is the safety alert symbol. When you see this symbol on
your pump or in this manual, look for one of the following signal
words and be alert to the potential for personal injury:
indicates a hazard which, if not avoided, will
result in death or serious injury.
indicates a hazard which, if not avoided, can result
in death or serious injury.
indicates a hazard which, if not avoided, can or
may result in minor or moderate injury.
The word NOTE indicates special instructions that are important
but not related to hazards.
CALIFORNIA PROPOSITION 65 WARNING
This product and related accessories contain
chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer,
birth defects or other reproductive harm.
GENERAL SAFETY
Carefully read and follow all safety instructions in this manual
and on pumps. Keep safety labels in good condition. Replace
missing or damaged safety labels.
"Intermittent Duty" is defined as operated and/or frequently
started within a period of time that would cause the motor to
reach its maximum thermal limits. Once the maximum thermal
limit is obtained, the motor must be allowed to return to ambient
temperature before resuming operation.
DO NOT use to pump flammable liquids. Never operate the pump
in an explosive environment. Arcing from the motor brushes,
switch or excessive heat from an improperly cycled motor may
cause an explosion.
DO NOT assume fluid compatibility. If the fluid is improperly
matched to the pump's elastomers, a leak may occur. Pumps
used to transfer hazardous or hot (max. temperature 170°F
[76°C] Viton® only) chemicals must be in a vented area to guard
against the possibility of injury due to harmful or explosive
liquid/vapors.
DO NOT operate the pump at pressures which cause the
motor to exceed the ampere rating indicated on the name
plate. Various pump models are equipped with thermal
breakers to interrupt operation due to excessive heat. Once
the temperature of the motor is within proper limits it will
automatically reset, and the pump will start operation without
warning.
P15005 (02-15-23)
DO NOT allow pump or any system component to freeze. To do so
may damage system and will void warranty.
BURN HAZARD. Do not touch an operating motor.
Modern motors can operate at high temperatures. To avoid
burns when servicing pump, allow it to cool for 20 minutes after
shut-down before handling.
HAZARDOUS PRESSURE. DO NOT run the pump
with discharge shutoff, as hose may burst or pump may be
damaged due to high temperatures.
Pump is non-submersible. Keep motor dry at all times. Do not
wash motor. Do not immerse. Protect motor from wet weather.
USE HIGH PRESSURE REINFORCED TYPE DISCHARGE HOSE
ONLY. See parts list for available hose, nozzle and fittings. A high
pressure relief valve is recommended.
DO NOT use garden hose with pump. Garden hose will not stand
the discharge pressure produced and will fail.
High pressure discharge stream is dangerous. To avoid injury,
DO NOT aim the discharge stream at any person or animal.
Be sure that the pump suction pipe pressure plus the pump
discharge pressure does not exceed the pressure rating of hose
and fittings. See manual for pump discharge pressure ratings.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
To prevent electrical shock, disconnect power before initiating
any work. In the case of pump failure, the motor housing and/
or the pumped fluid may carry high voltage to components
normally considered safe.
Follow local and/or national plumbing and electrical codes when
installing.
Unplug pump before servicing.
Some models of pump are supplied with 3-connector
grounding type cord. Connect only to properly grounded, GFCI
protected outlet. Do not lift pump by electrical cord.
If using extension cord, use only UL approved indoor/
outdoor, 3-wire, grounding type cord. Do not allow any part of
cord or receptacle ends to sit in water or damp locations.
