1. Read these warnings and instructions carefully.

Failure to follow them could cause serious bodily

injury and/or property damage.

2. Follow all local electrical and safety codes as well

as the National Electrical Code (NEC) and the

Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA).

3. The power supply should be a separate circuit,

independent of all other circuits. Be sure it is

equipped with a fuse and disconnect box of ample

capacity.

4. For fire protection, the power supply should be free

of any building, preferably on a direct line from the

transformer. In the event of fire, the wires will not be

destroyed and the water supply not cut-off.

5.

Always disconnect power source before performing

any work on or near the motor or its connected load.

If the power disconnect point is out-of-sight, lock it in

the open position and tag it to prevent unexpected

application of power. Failure to do so could result in

fatal electrical shock.

6.

DO NOT handle pump with wet hands or when

standing in water as fatal electrical shock could occur.

Disconnect main power supply before handling pump

for any reason.

7. Shut off power source when voltage drops 10% below

the rated voltage of the motor.

8. Protect the power cable from coming in contact with

sharp objects, oil, grease, hot surfaces or chemicals.

DO NOT kink the power cable. If damaged replace

immediately.

9.

NEVER leave the control box, fused disconnect

switch, or covers open (either partially or completely)

when not being worked on by a competent electrician

or repairman.

10. Always use caution when operating electrical controls

in damp areas. If possible, avoid all contact with

electrical equipment during thunderstorms or extreme

damp conditions.

11. Install all electrical equipment in protected area to

prevent mechanical damage which could produce

serious electrical shock and/or equipment failure.

12. Pump is designed to pump cold ground water that is

free of air or gases. Decreased pump performance

and life expectancy can occur if the ground water is

not cold (86F/30C) or contains air or gases.

13. Pump and controls must be securely and adequately

grounded as specified in section 250-43 item (A) of

the U.S.A. National Electric Code (NEC) and Section

26-954 Canadian Electrical Code. Failure to do so

could result in a fatal injury.

14.

DO NOT use this pump to pump flammable liquids

such as gasoline, fuel oil, kerosene, etc. Failure to

follow the above warning could result in property

damage and/or personal injury.

WARNING: The pump is intended for use in a well. Motor

frame must be connected to power supply ground or fatal

electrical shock may result. Do not use this pump in

swimming pools.

NOTE: Pumps with the “CSA” mark are tested to UL

standard UL778 and certified to CSA standard C22.2 No.
