PUMP INSTALLATION
S-F & SX-F Series pumps have been evaluated for use with water or water based solutions.
Please contact the manufacturer for additional information.
Risk of electric shock. Three phase pumps do not come with electric
plug connectors. To reduce the risk of electric shock, be certain that it is connected only to a
properly grounded, grounding-type receptacle.
Lifting:
Attach a rope or lifting chain (not included) to the handle (or lifting rings) on the top of the
pump.
Do not lift the pump by the power cable or discharge hose/piping. Proper
lifting equipment (rope/chain) must be used.
POSITIONING THE PUMP
BJM Pumps, S-F & SX-F Series pumps are designed to operate fully submerged. Data sheets
can be obtained online at
www.bjmpumps.com or by calling BJM Pumps, LLC at 860-399-
5937.

Do not run the pump dry.

Pump liquid should not exceed a maximum temperature of 200°F (93°C).

Never place the pump on loose or soft ground. The pump may sink, preventing water
from reaching the impeller. Place on a solid surface or suspend the pump with a lifting
rope/chain. The S-F & SX-F Series pumps are provided with a suction strainer to
prevent large solids from clogging the impeller. Any spherical solids which pass through
the strainer should pass through the pump.

For maximum pumping capacity, use the proper size non-collapsible hose or rigid
piping. A check valve may be installed after the discharge to prevent back flow when the
pump is shut off.
