the wait time is to manually prime the pump
a.
Unplug the pump from the power source.
b. Remove priming plug (F) from top of the pump. Fill pump with
clean water up to top of discharge outlet. Replace priming plug.
c.
Plug the pump back into power source and turn on.
d. If water still isn’t flowing, prime the pump again. Also consider
moving the pump closer to the water and/or using a shorter inlet
hose.
9. The pump’s thermal overload device will trigger automatically when
the pump’s temperature exceeds the upper range. Turn off and unplug
the pump and allow to cool. Once cooled, it may be reused without
resetting.

water or water from a natural source. This will clean out grit, sand and
other particulate matter that can damage the pump.
EXTENSION CORD
Increasing an extension cord’s length
requires a heavier wire gauge. Always
use the shortest extension cord with
the thickest wire gauge for the task.
