Operating Instructions and Parts Manual
Installation (Continued)
tor and grounding type attachment
plug. A grounded receptacle in confor-
mance with current NEC and local codes
must be used (See Figure 1).
2. This pump operates on 115V, 60 Hz
AC, single phase or 115V DC.
3. Use an extension cord only if neces-
sary. Follow the Extension Cord
Length Table for proper gage of 3-
wire, grounding type extension cord.
Risk of fatal electrical
shock. Never cut off the
round grounding prong.
Cutting the cord or plug
will void the warranty and make the
pump inoperable.
4. Figure 2 shows a typical installation.
Threaded adapters are furnished for
attaching garden hose where condi-
tions permit its use. In no case
should the pump be more than 15
feet above or away from inlet
source. Install a foot valve and when
suction lift is over 10 feet or when
suction line is over 10 feet.
5. The inlet line may be galvanized
pipe, plastic pipe, or reinforced
hose. Small leaks in suction line
greatly reduce efficiency of pump
and may prevent priming.
Ordinary garden
hose will collapse
under suction pressure and should not
be used in the inlet but for pressure
boosting only.
6. Use a strainer when pumping from
a creek, pond, or source where for-
eign objects may be sucked into the
pump. The strainer should prevent
solids from entering the inlet line.
7. A regular garden hose may be used
as a discharge line.
Operation
Pump must be
filled with water
before operation. Running the pump
dry will cause damage to the shaft seal.
1. This unit is not waterproof or weath-
erproof and is not intended to be used
in showers, saunas, or other potentially
wet locations. The motor is designed
to be used in a clean, dry location with
access to adequate cooling air.
Ambient temperatures around the
motor should not exceed 104˚F (40˚C).
2. Remove priming plug and fill with
water. Close plug
3. Plug power cord into GFCI protected
electrical outlet. The pump will prime
in a few minutes depending on suc-
tion line length. Use of foot valve on
suction line is recommended.
4. In the case of pressure boosting,
turn water on before starting pump.
This force primes the pump. Then,
plug power cord into GFCI protect-
ed electrical outlet.
5. Unplug cord to turn unit off.
Maintenance
Let pump cool for
at least 20 minutes
before attempting to service. Motor
may be extremely hot. Personal injury
may result.
1. Pump should be checked periodically
for proper operation.
Always disconnect
the electrical supply
before attempting to install, service, or
perform any maintenance. If the power
source is out of sight, lock and tag in
the open (off) position to prevent unex-
pected power application. Failure to do
so could result in fatal electrical shock.
Only qualified electricians should repair
this unit. Improper repair could result in
fatal electrical shock.
BRUSH REPLACEMENT
Brushes for this
pump should be
inspected after 100 hours of operation.
Pumps with excess of 100 hours of oper-
ation may stop operating or fail to start.
This could be due to worn brushes or
carbon build-up. The brushes should be
removed and carbon removed. Worn
brushes are not covered under warran-
ty. Replacement brushes may be avail-
able from Wayne Pumps. Call 1-800-237-
0987 to order.
1) Disconnect electrical cord from
power supply.
2) Remove brush caps with screwdriver.
3) Remove old brush assembly.
4) Insert new brush assembly.
5) Replace brush caps.
For other problems, consult trou-
bleshooting chart.
