Please Read This Before Installing Or Operating Pump. This
information is provided for SAFETY and to PREVENT EQUIPMENT
PROBLEMS. To help recognize this information, observe the
following symbols:
IMPORTANT! Warns about hazards that can result in
personal injury or Indicates factors concerned with
assembly, installation, operation, or maintenance which
could result in damage to the machine or equipment if ignored.
CAUTION ! Warns about hazards that can or will cause minor
personal injury or property damage if ignored. Used with symbols
below.
WARNING ! Warns about hazards that can or will cause serious
personal injury, death, or major property damage if ignored. Used
with symbols below.
Only qualified personnel should install, operate and repair pump. Any
wiring of pumps should be performed by a qualified electrician.
WARNING ! To reduce risk of electrical shock, pumps and
control panels must be properly grounded in accordance
with the National Electric Code (NEC) or the Canadian
Electrical Code (CEC) and all applicable state, province,
local codes and ordinances. Improper grounding voids
warranty
WARNING ! To reduce risk of electrical shock, always
disconnect the pump from the power source before
handling or servicing. Lock out power and tag.
WARNING ! Operation against a closed
discharge valve will cause premature bearing
and seal failure on any pump, and on end suction
and self priming pump the heat build may cause the generation of
steam with resulting dangerous pressures. It is recommended that
a high case temperature switch or pressure relief valve be installed
on the pump body.
CAUTION ! Never operate a pump with a plug-in
type power cord without a ground fault
circuit interrupter.
CAUTION ! Pumps build up heat and pressure
during operation-allow time for pumps to cool
before handling or servicing.
WARNING ! Do not pump hazardous materials
(flammable, caustic, etc.) unless the pump is
specifically designed and designated to handle them.
CAUTION ! Do not block or restrict discharge hose,
as discharge hose may whip under pressure.
WARNING ! Do not wear loose clothing that may
become entangled in moving parts.
WARNING ! Keep clear of suction and discharge
openings. DO NOT insert fingers in pump with
power connected.
Always wear eye protection when working on pumps.
Make sure lifting handles are securely fastened each
time before lifting. DO NOT operate pump without safety
devices in place. Always replace safety devices that
have been removed during service or repair. Secure the
pump in its operating position so it can not tip over, fall
or slide.
DO NOT exceed manufacturers recommendation for
maximum performance, as this could cause the motor
to overheat.
DO NOT remove cord and strain relief. DO NOT connect
conduit to pump.
WARNING ! Cable should be protected at all times to
avoid punctures, cut, bruises and abrasions. Inspect
frequently. Never handle connected power cords with
wet hands.
WARNING ! To reduce risk of electrical shock, all
wiring and junction connections should be made per
the NEC or CEC and applicable state or province and
local codes. Requirements may vary depending on
usage and location.
WARNING ! Submersible Pumps are not approved for
use in swimming pools, recreational water installations
decorative fountains or any installation where human
contact with the pumped fluid is common.
WARNING ! Products returned must be cleaned,
sanitized, or decontaminated as necessary prior to
shipment, to insure that employees will not be exposed to
health hazards in handling said material. All Applicable
Laws And Regulations Shall Apply.
Bronze/brass and bronze/brass fitted pumps may contain
lead levels higher than considered safe for potable water
systems. Various government agencies have determined
that leaded copper alloys should not be used in
potable water applications. For non-leaded copper
alloy materials of construction, please contact factory.
