WARNING
Read this material before using this product. Failure to do so can result in
serious injury. SAVE THIS MANUAL.
Before start-up, note the following:
The pump must be connected to a GFCI-protected plug that has been installed
according to regulations. The plug must have a supply voltage of 120 VAC at 60
Hz.
CAUTION
This pump has been evaluated for use with water only.
WARNING
IMPORTANT! For your own safety –before starting to run the pump, please
have the following items checked by an expert:
- Risk of electric shock – This pump is supplied with a grounding conductor and grounding-type attachment plug. To reduce the risk of electric shock, be certain that it is connected only to a properly grounded, grounding-type receptacle.
- Risk of electric shock – This pump has not been investigated for use in swimming pool areas.
- The electrical connections must be protected from moisture.
- If there is a danger of flooding, the electrical connections must be taken to higher ground.
- Circulation of caustic fluids, as well as the circulation of abrasive materials, must be avoided at all costs.
- The pump must be protected from frost.
- The pump must be protected from running dry.
- Access by children should also be prevented with appropriate measures.
- To prevent death from electric shock, the pump must be connected only to a GFCI-protected outlet.
- Do not pump flammable materials. Motor brushes may spark and cause explosions.
- Do not use an extension cord with this item.
- People with pacemakers should consult their physician(s) before use. Electromagnetic fields in close proximity to the heart pacemaker could cause pacemaker interference or pacemaker failure.
- The warnings, precautions, and instructions discussed in this instruction manual cannot cover all possible conditions and situations that may occur. It must be understood by the operator that common sense and caution are factors that cannot be built into this product but must be supplied by the operator.
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.
Specifications

---|---|
Electrical Rating | 120VAC / 60Hz / 9A |
Power Cord Length | 8’ |
Maximum Flow @ 0’ | 1525 GPH |
Maximum Head lift @ 0’ Flow | 56 PSIG |
Discharge Port | 3/4″ Garden Hose Thread |
Installation
The pump must be installed in a stationary position with either:
a. A fixed pipeline or
b. A flexible hose.
Please note!
- Do not allow the pump to hang suspended by the power cord, inlet pipe, or hose. The pump must be set on a stable surface or suspended from the handle. To ensure that the pump works properly, keep the bottom free from sludge and dirt of all kinds.
- 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
- The pump is equipped with a shock-proof plug according to regulations. The pump is designed to be connected to a 120 VAC, 60 Hz GFCI-protected socket.
- Make sure that the socket is sufficiently secured and in excellent condition.
- Depending on the application, a separate flow switch (not included) may be needed between the plug and the outlet.
- When the plug is inserted directly into the socket, the pump will turn on.
- WARNING: To prevent death from electric shock, the pump must be connected only to a GFCI-protected outlet.
WARNING! TO PREVENT SERIOUS INJURY:
If the power cord or plug is damaged, do not use the pump. The power cord or
plug may only be repaired by a certified electrician.
Areas of use
-
This pump is designed to pump water only.
-
This pump is designed to be used for:
General purpose removal or transfer of clear water. -
This pump should NOT be used for:
Continuous run, fountain/pond water features.
Removing water from swimming pools or spas. Septic or sewage systems. -
This pump can also be used to transfer water (e.g. household, farming, plumbing).
Installation Instructions
-
Attach the hose to the Pump intake port. A tach second hose to the Pump discharge port.
-
Position the Pump on a solid surface so that both hoses are free from kinks. Plug the Power Cord into GFCI protected outlet.
-
Place the unused end of the intake hose in water to be transferred. Place the unused end of the discharge hose as needed to direct the water discharge at least 3 feet away from the source.
Operation
After reading these instructions, consider the following points before starting the pump:
- Verify that the discharge pipe is properly connected.
- Verify that the electrical connection is 120 VAC, 60 Hz.
- Verify that the electrical socket is GFCI protected and in good condition. Test GFCI-protected outlet before use.
- Verify that water and moisture cannot get near the power supply socket.
- Verify that the pump is installed so as to prevent running dry.
Maintenance
TO PREVENT SERIOUS INJURY FROM ACCIDENTAL OPERATION:
Unplug the Pump from its electrical outlet before performing any inspection,
maintenance, or cleaning procedures.
If the pump is moved during operation, flush it out with clean water after
every use.
Quarterly Maintenance
The below maintenance must be performed at least once every 3 months under
optimal conditions.
For frequent use, or dirty areas, more frequent maintenance is required.
- Clean sludge and debris from the bottom of the basin.
- Clean sludge/debris from the inlet screen.
- Make sure the discharge pipe is free from leaks.
- Make sure the check valve is functioning properly.
- Manually operate any separate flow switch (not included) to determine that the pump turns on/off as intended.
Carbon Brush Maintenance
The carbon brushes may require maintenance when the motor performance of
the pump decreases or stops working completely. To maintain the brushes:
- Remove the carbon brushes from the housing. Keep track of which orientation the old carbon brushes were in to prevent needless wear if they will be reinstalled.
- If either carbon brush is worn down by more than 1/2, replace both carbon brushes.
- To clean old carbon brushes before reusing them, rub the contact areas with a pencil eraser.
- Reinsert the old carbon brushes in the same orientation to reduce wear.
- When installing the carbon brushes, make sure the carbon portions of the carbon brushes contact the motor armature, and that the springs face away from the motor. Also, make sure the springs operate freely.
Note: New carbon brushes tend to spark when first used until they wear and conform to the motor’s armature.
