GENERAL SAFETYINSTRUCTIONS
This equipment is only for use with an automotive, tractor, or marine- typebattery fully charged to 12 Volts DC. Risk of fire or explosion. Risk of fire or explosion if used to pump flammable liquidsor if usedinexplosive atmospheres. Risk of burns. During normal operation, the motor case may get hot enoughtoburnyou.Do not touch the motor when it is hot. Risk of Injury or Death. Do not submerge the motor or allow the motor to be exposedtowater.Personal injury or death could result. Keep motor and power cordsawayfrom liquids. Risk of electric shock. Battery current can causesevereburnsandstart a fire if the battery is short-circuited. Risk of electric shock. Can shock, burn or kill. Donot walkinawetarea. Do not light the pump with the power cord.
Risk of burns.
-
Battery posts, terminals, and relatedaccessoriescontain lead and lead compounds, chemicals knowntotheStateofCalifornia to cause cancer and reproductive harm. Washhandsafter handling.
-
Know the pump application, limitations, and potential hazards.
-
Do not use this pump in water with fish present.
-
Release all pressure within the system before servicinganycomponent.
-
Drain all water from the system before servicing.
-
Secure the discharge line before starting the pump. Anunsecureddischarge line can whip, possibly causing personal injury and/or propertydamage.
-
Check hoses for weak or worn conditions before eachuse, makingcertain all connections are secure.
-
Periodically inspect the pump and systemcomponents. Keepthepumpfree of debris and foreign objects. Performroutine maintenanceasrequired.
-
Provide a means of pressure relief for pumps whose dischargelinescanbe shut off or obstructed.
-
Personal Safety: a. Wear safety glasses at all times when working with thepumps. b. Keep the work area clean, uncluttered, and properly lighted.
c. Keep visitors at a safe distance from the work area. 10. When wiring a
DC pump, follow all of the electrical andsafetycodesthat apply. -
All wiring is to be 12 gauge stranded copper wire that is water-resistant,oil-resistant, and flame resistant.
-
Use insulated crimp-type connectors.
-
Protect the electrical wires from sharp objects, hot surfaces, oil,andchemicals. Avoid kinking the wires. Replace or repair damagedorwornwires immediately.
-
Do not touch an operating motor. Motors can operateat hightemperatures.
-
5. Do not handle the pump or pump motor or changewiringwithwethands or when standing on a wet or damp surface or in water.
NOTICE: This pump is equipped with a permanent magnet type12Voltreversible DC
motor. Be sure it is connected properly as illustratedinthedirection of flow
indicated by the arrow on the pump case.
NOTICE: This pump is not designed for applications involvingsalt wateror
brine! Use with salt water or brine will void the warranty.
NOTICE: Never operate the pump for more than two hours at atime. Neverrun the
pump dry
INSTALLATION AND OPERATION
1.PLACE THE PUMP
on a stable surface. The pump shouldbelessthan10′ above and less than 10′ to one side of the water source.
2. TO EXTEND THE LIFE OF THE INTERNAL
IMPELLORAAddoil theto pump before use. When the pump starts, there is no liquidintheunit.Until the pump is primed and water is flowing through, thelubricationadded will prolong the impeller’s life. Oil the pump with 1 /2tablespoonoffood-grade vegetable oil or mineral oil with each use. Pour theoil intothewater inlet port. DO NOT RUN THE PUMP DRY! If the pumpdoesnotstartto move water in 30 seconds or less, recheck the installationandplumbing.
3. CONNECT THE HOSES(1/2”diameter reinforced hoseor larger)
For best operation, prime the pump by filling the inlet hosewithwaterand put the open end of the hose in the water you wish topump. With a washer installed, attach it to the inlet side of the pump. If thisjoint leaks air, the pump will not operate. The pump shouldbelessThan 10′ above and less than 10′ to one side of the water source. Make the outlet hose as short as possible – 25′ or less
KEEP THE HOSES AS STRAIGHT AS POSSIBLE
To reduce friction and move as much liquid as possible, donot coil orkinkthe hoses. When pumping from a well or stream, raise theinlet hoseafewinches off the bottom to avoid sucking in sand, silt, or pebbles(whichcandestroy and disable the impeller). Use the included suctionscreenattachment to protect the pump from large solid objects.
INLET HOSE GOES IN THE WATER; THE OUTLET HOSESTAYSOUTOF THE WATER. MOTOR
MUST STAY DRY.
Make sureall inlet connections are tight (no air/water leaks) and the inlet hoseisinthewater.Make sure the end of the outlet hose is not underwater. If theoutlet hoseisunderwater, the pump may not work.
4. Connect the Motor to the Batter
This DC motor must be connected to a fully charged 12-volt automotive,tractor,
or marine-type battery.
Do not connect the motor toanyothervoltage battery. Connect the battery clips
to the suitable batteryproperly.
The red color wire should go to the positive(+)terminal of thebattery, And the
black color wire should go to the negative(-) terminal of thebattery.You
should get water in 30 seconds or less.
If not, removethehosefromthe pump inlet port, add a tablespoon food grade
vegetableor mineral oiltothe inlet port and repeat the process.
If your pump does not primeonthesecond try, check the impeller and the inside
of the pumpheadforwear.Replace the impeller as needed
5. DISCONNECT THE PUMP FROM THE BATTERY
Unplug the pump before all the water is completely gone. Toextendtheimpellor
life, DO NOT ALLOW THE PUMP TO RUNDRY!
Before storage, run clean water through the pump. Drainhosesof all liquids and
allow the pump to dry completely.
