NOTICE
indicates special instructions
which are important but not related to hazards.
Never run pump dry. Running pump with-
out water may cause pump to overheat, damaging seal
and possibly causing burns to persons handling pump.
Fill pump with water before starting.
Never run pump against closed dis-
charge. To do so can boil water inside pump, caus-
ing hazardous pressure in unit, risk of explosion
and possibly scalding persons handling pump.
Motor normally operates at high temper-
ature and will be too hot to touch. It is protected from
heat damage during operation by an automatic internal
cutoff switch. Before handling pump or motor, stop
motor and allow to cool for 20 minutes.
1. To avoid risk of serious bodily injury and property
damage, read safety instructions carefully before in-
stalling pump.
2. Follow local and/or national plumbing and electri-
cal codes when installing pump.
3. Keep well covered while installing pump to prevent
leaves and other debris from falling into well, con-
taminating well and possibly damaging pump.
4. Protect pump and piping system from freezing.
Allowing pump or water system to freeze could
severely damage pump and voids warranty.
To avoid serious injury and equip-
ment damage, limit system pressure to 100
pounds per square inch (PSI) or below at all
times. Over-pressure can cause tank blowup;
install relief valve capable of passing full
pump volume at 100 PSI.

Consult local Health Department for procedure.
