IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING – To guard against injury, basic safety precautions should be observed, including the following:

• a) READ AND FOLLOW AlI SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
• b) DANGER – To avoid possible electric shock, special care should be taken since water is employed in the use of aquarium equipment.
• For each of the following situations, do not attempt repairs by yourself; return the appliance to an authorized service facility for service or discard the appliance:

1. If the appliance shows any sign of abnormal water leakage, immediately unplug it from the power source. (Immersible equipment only)
2. Carefully examine the appliance after installation. It should not be plugged in if there is water on parts not intended to be wet.
3. Do not operate any appliance if it has a damaged cord or plug, or if it is malfunctioning or has been dropped or damaged in any manner.
4. When used with an aquarium, to avoid the possibility of the appliance plug or receptacle getting wet, position the aquarium stand and tank to one side of a wall-mounted receptacle to prevent water from dripping onto the receptacle or plug. A “drip loop shown in the figure below, should be arranged by the user for each cord connecting an aquarium appliance to a receptacle. The “drip loop” is that part of the cord below the level of the receptacle, or the connector in an extension cord is used, to prevent water traveling along the cord and coming in contact with the receptacle. If the plug or receptacle does get wet, DON’T unplug the cord. Disconnect the fuse or circuit breaker that supplies power to the appliance. Then, unplug and examine for the presence of water in the receptacle.

• c) Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.
• d) To avoid injury, do not contact moving parts or not parts.
• e) Always unplug an appliance from an outlet when not in use, before putting on or taking off parts, and before cleaning. Never yank the cord to pull the plug from the outlet. Grasp the plug and pull to disconnect.
• f) Do not use an appliance for other than intended use. The use of attachments not recommended or sold by the appliance manufacturer may cause an unsate condition.
• g) Do not install or store the appliance where it will be exposed to the weather or to temperatures below freezing.
• h) Make sure an appliance mounted on a tank is securely installed before operating it.
• I ) Read and observe all the important notices on the appliance.
• j If an extension cord is necessary, a cord with a proper rating should be used. A cord rated for fewer amperes or watts than the appliance rating may overheat.
• Care should be taken to arrange the cord so that it will not be tripped over or pulled.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

• The pump can be used submersed to a maximum depth of 36″ when used in aquarium applications; no depth requirements for pond use.
• When used with inline piping note the following: Centrifugal pumps cannot pull water from a lower level. To start, the pump must be below water level and filled with water.
• Unless the air can escape from the outlet, the pump will not start. Do not use glues or solvents to connect

CAUTION

• The pump is intended to pump water only. It cannot be used to pump oil, solvents, or gasoline.
• Although the pump will continue to run if there is no water, after 30 minutes damage may occur if allowed to run dry.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

• This appliance should be grounded to minimize the possibility of electric shock.
• This appliance is equipped with an electric cord having an equipment grounding conductor and a grounding type plug (Some models).
• The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is installed and grounded under all appropriate codes and ordinances.
• For 120VAC models: This appliance is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit and has a grounding plug that looks like the plug illustrated in (A) below.
• A temporary adapter which looks like the adapter illustrated in (B and C) below may be used to connect this plug to a two-pole receptacle as shown in (B) if a grounded outlet is not available.
• The temporary adapter should be used only until a grounded outlet can be installed by a qualitied electrician. Ine green-colored rigid ear (lug, and the like) extending from the adapter must be fastened to a permanent ground such as a grounded outlet box.

SERVICE AND MAINTENANCE

• The pump volute should occasionally be removed to clean and inspect the impeller assembly. The impeller is the only serviceable item and can be pulled out of the body.
• Do not take the impeller apart except for cleaning when used in salt water or hard water applications; see below. If it is worn or broken the entire impeller assembly should be replaced.
• This will restore the pump to its original capacity. Pumps taken out of service for an extended period with fluid inside run the risk of forming a crust which may prevent subsequent starting. Saltwater should be flushed out with fresh water.
• Always check the cord for sharp bends which can cause premature cracking.
• Do not use a power cord to lift or move the pump. Other than Impeller maintenance, this appliance has no user-serviceable parts. Magnet impeller assembly must be routinely cleaned to remove accumulations of scale or calcium.
• This procedure should be done at least once every three months – or more often if the water conditions require it. Saltwater and hard water environments require more frequent cleaning.
• Pondmaster® PUMPGUARD™ WATER PUMP MAINTENANCE SOLUTION (sold separately) will instantly loosen scale, lime, rust, and other detritus from moving parts and the impeller chamber.
• Most build-up can be removed without disassembling the pump. See instructions on the next.

IMPORTANT: FOR PUMPS USED IN SALTWATER OR HARD WATER

• Magnet impeller assembly must be routinely removed for cleaning in white vinegar to remove accumulations of scale or calcium.
• This procedure should be done at least once every three months – or more often if the water conditions require it. Disassemble the magnet from the impeller by pulling them apart (it will take a strong pull). One end cap will come off.
• To clean the calcium scale off the shaft and bearing inside of the magnet, soak it in white vinegar for a few hours and scrape it off. For faster results use a PUMPGUARD cleaning solution.
• Reassemble the magnet/impeller assembly and use caution when reinserting the magnet is very strong and will pull in quickly.
• Pumpguard™ an easy maintenance solution that will keep water pumps running like new when used regularly.
