Fluid Type

The Pump is designed for use with water with a maximum temperature of 95°F (35°C). Do not use the pump
for other fluids, especially not fuels, cleaning fluids, or other chemical products.

WELL JET PUMP SPECIFICATIONS

The pump must be installed in a stationary position with either:

• A fixed pipeline or
• A flexible hose pipe.

Please note!

Please do not install the pump by suspending it from being unsupported by its delivery pipe or power cord. The pump must be suspended from the handle or be placed on the bottom of the basin. To ensure the pump works properly, keep the bottom free from sludge and dirt.

If the water level sinks too low, any sludge in the basin will dry out and stop the pump from starting. To help ensure the pump will start as required, check the pump regularly with start-up tests.

Power Supply

1. The pump is equipped with a shock-proof plug according to regulations. The pump is designed to be connected to 115 VAC, 60 Hz GFCI socket.
2. Make sure that the socket is sufficiently secured and is in excellent condition.
3. The pump will be on standby when the plug is inserted into the socket.
4. WARNING: The pump must be connected only to a GFCI-protected outlet to prevent death from electric shock.

WARNING! TO PREVENT SERIOUS INJURY:

Do not use the pump if the power cord or plug is damaged. The power cord or plug may only be repaired by a certified electrician.

Areas of use

1. This pump is designed to pump water only.
2. This pump is designed for Irrigation systems, lawn sprinkling, and clear water transfer.

2. Plug Power Cord into a GFCI-protected outlet.

3. The Pump uses 3/4″ NPT piping (sold separately)

Purchase the necessary length of pipe, including any needed fittings and bends.

Mount the Pump as close to the water source as possible and within the range of the rated Suction Lift. The connections must be airtight. Wrap all threaded connections with PTFE tape (sold separately).

4. Remove the Inlet and Outlet Covers from the Pump.

5. Attach the water source to the Inlet, using appropriate methods. The inlet hose or pipe must be collapsible to withstand the suction force properly.

6. Install a foot valve and filter (sold separately) at the bottom of the inlet.

7. Attach the outlet connection to the Outlet. A Y-fitting with dual valves (sold separately) helps prime the pump (see Figure B).

Note: A foot valve on the inlet connection is critical to help prevent the pump from losing prime. Note: Check that the water source and piping are clear of sand, dirt, and debris.

8. As shown above, connect a bucket full of at least 3 gallons of water to one side of the Y-fitting using a hose. (If available, a continuous water supply, such as a spigot, may be used instead.) The bucket must be positioned higher than the pump’s outlet.

9. Close the valve on the outlet side of the Y-fitting, and open the priming side.
