Process
C, continued,
17. Cement
as many sections an(] couplings
of rigid 1" PVC
pipe needed to connect
the 1" male PVC adapter
in the
discharge
tee to the 1" male adapter on the tank cross inlet.
Set pressure
in the pre-charged
pressure tank to
2 pounds
less than the cut-in
pressure of the pump.
The
cut-in
pressure of these pumps
is factory
preset to 30 PSI. If
this cut-in
setting
has not been changed,
then the pre-
charged
pressure
tank should
be set to 28 PSI. Total
installation
should
look like the shallow
well
drawing
below.
18. TO PRIME, remove
plug from
the top of pump
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
a faucet or two in the
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 more
water, try again.

STEP 1: Drive the we[[ point into the ground
according
to
the instructions
included
with your we[[ point.
Use as much
galvanized
pipe and as many drive couplings
as it takes to
both reach the water and leave approximately
one foot of pipe
protruding
from the ground.
STEP 2: Thread 1-1/4" galvanized
elbow
onto the pipe protruding
from the ground.
Sea[ all pipe threads with Teflon r'* tape.
STEP 3: Thread 1-1/4"
galvanized
nipple
into the 1-1/4"
galvanized
elbow.
STEP 4: Thread 1-1/4"
check valve onto the 1-1/4"
galvanized
nipple.
