READ AND FOLLOW 
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS!

This is the safety alert symbol.

When you see this

symbol on your pump or in this manual, look for one of the
following signal words and be alert to the potential for per-
sonal injury.

warns about hazards that 

will

cause serious

personal injury, death or major property damage if ignored.

warns about hazards that

sonal injury, death or major property damage if ignored.

warns about hazards that

or 

can

cause

minor personal injury or property damage if ignored.

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.

1. Read this manual carefully. Failure to follow these

Instructions could cause serious bodily injury and/or prop-
erty damage.

2. Consult installer or licensed plumber for correct relief

valve. Install system according to local codes. 

3. Always test water from well for purity before using. Check

local health department for testing procedure.

4. Before installing or servicing tank, BE SURE pump electric

power source is disconnected. Release all water pressure
before working on tank or system. Release air pressure
before removing cover flange.

5. Install relief valve in pump supply line to tank, as close to

tank as possible.

6. BE SURE pump electrical circuit is properly grounded.

7. Remove bleeder orifices, air volume controls or other air

charging devices in existing system.

8. DO NOT USE tank as a surge suppressor.

Hazardous pressure. To prevent possible seri-

ous or fatal injury and/or damage to equipment, system
pressure must be less than 100 pounds per square inch
(PSI) (689kPa) under any circumstances. Failure to follow
instruction can result in tank bursting. A relief valve capa-
ble of passing the full pump volume at 100 PSI (689kPa)
must be installed in the system.  

Do not allow pump, tank, or piping system to

freeze. Freezing can severely damage equipment and may
lead to tank explosion and serious injury. Allowing tank to
freeze voids tank warranty.
