The label
NOTICE indicates special instructions which
are important but not related to hazards.
Carefully read and follow all safety instructions in
this manual and on pump.
Keep safety labels in good condition.
Replace missing or damaged safety labels.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
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.
Pump is non-
submersible. Keep
motor dry at all times. Do
not wash motor. Do not
immerse. Protect motor
from wet weather.
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.
Unplug pump before servicing.
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.
Follow local and/or national plumbing and electrical
codes when installing.
Hazardous Pressure. DO NOT run the
pump with discharge shutoff, as hose may burst or
pump may be damaged due to high temperatures.
GENERAL SAFETY
To avoid risk of serious bodily injury and property
damage, read safety instructions carefully before
installing pump.
Do not allow pump or any system component to freeze.
To do so may damage system and will void warranty.
Risk of electric shock. To avoid fatal
shocks, proceed as follows if pump needs servicing.
A.
Disconnect power to pump outlet box before pul-
ling pump cord plug. After plug is pulled, let pump
cool for 20 minutes before attempting to work on it.
B.
Take extreme care when changing fuses. To
re-duced chance of fatal electrical shocks,
DO NOT
stand in water or put your finger in the fuse socket.
C.
Ground electrical outlet box.
D.
Use only Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI)
protected grounded outlet for cord plug.
Never run pump dry. Running pump dry can damage
internal parts, overheat pump (which can cause burns
to people handling or servicing pump), and will void
warranty.
Do not pump chemicals or corrosive liquids with pump.
Hazardous Pressure.
A.
Use high pressure reinforced type discharge
hose ONLY. See parts list for available hose,
nozzle and fittings. A high pressure relief valve is
recommended.
B.
DO NOT use garden hose with High Pressure
Booster pump. Garden hose will not stand the
discharge pressure produced and will fail.
C.
High pressure discharge stream is dangerous. To
avoid injury,
DO NOT aim the discharge stream at
any person or animal.
D.
BE SURE that the pump suction pipe pressure
plus the pump discharge pressure does not
exceed the pressure rating of hose and fittings.
See Table I for pump discharge pressure ratings.
