PUMP SPECIFICATIONS (continued)
Hints and troubleshooting
UNPLUG THE PUMP BEFORE HANDLING
Pump operates but there is no water flow
Make sure the pump is fully submerged. Check the tubing for kinks or
obstructions and ensure pump outlet is clear of objects. Check water inlet for
any obstructions. If normal water flow has not returned, remove fish guard
and turbine cover to access turbine area. Rotate the turbine to ensure it is not
broken or jammed. Rinse the turbine with clean water to remove any debris.
Replace turbine cover and fish guard before plugging into GFCI outlet.
Regular maintenance
01. Always unplug the pump from the electrical outlet before handling it.
02. Keep the pond water clean.
03. Always operate the pump completely submerged. Check the water level
daily to ensure the pump will remain submerged.Add water if necessary.
04. Clean the pump periodically to prevent mineral deposits and contamination.
05. Product is not to be operated below 41°F — Freeze Damage May
Occur. If the pump is installed outdoors in a North American freeze
zone, ensure all water is removed and the unit is completely dry and
stored in a frost-free area.
WARNING:
01. To reduce risk of electric shock, always unplug the pump from
the electrical outlet before handling or cleaning it.
02. To reduce risk of electric shock, inspect the pump and cord for
damage before installation or maintenance — replace entire pump
or cord assembly if damage is found.
03. To reduce risk of electric shock, connect only to a properly
grounded outlet.
04. Do not exceed voltage shown on the pump.
Cautions
01. To reduce risk of electric shock, always unplug the pump from the
electrical outlet before handling or cleaning the pump.
02. To reduce risk of electric shock, inspect the pump and cord for
damage before installation or maintenance — replace pump if
damage is found.
03. Do not exceed proper voltage as indicated on the pump's cord label.
A GFCI outlet is required.
04. Always keep the cord away from high temperature and heat.
05. To achieve the best flowing performance, the pump should be placed
on a flat surface and completely submerged in the water.
06. Do not let the pump run dry as this will shorten the pump's life.
07. Do not lift, hang, or pull the pump by the power cord.
08. Do not pump heated liquids.
