SAFETY INFORMATION

Please read and understand this entire manual before attempting to assemble, operate or install the

product.

SAFETY INFORMATION

DANGER

ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD.

Always disconnect power source before performing any work on or near the motor or its

connected load. If the power disconnect point is out-of-sight, lock it in the open position

and tag it to prevent unexpected application of power. Failure to do so could result in

fatal electrical shock.

ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD.

Do not handle the pump with wet hands or when standing in water as fatal electrical

shock could occur. Disconnect main power before handling unit for ANY REASON!

RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK.

These pumps have not been investigated for use in swimming pool areas.

ELECTRICAL SHOCK ALERT.

Follow all local electrical and safety codes, as well as the National Electrical Code (NEC) and

the Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA).

ELECTRICAL SHOCK ALERT.

Replace damaged or worn wiring cord immediately. Never use an extension cord.

ELECTRICAL SHOCK ALERT.

Do not kink power cable and never allow the cable to come in contact with oil, grease, hot

surfaces, or chemicals.

ELECTRICAL SHOCK ALERT.

Wire motor to correct supply voltage. See motor nameplate and wiring diagrams and check

voltage of power supply.

ELECTRICAL SHOCK ALERT.

Unit must be securely and adequately electrically grounded. This can be accomplished by

wiring the unit to a ground metal-clad raceway system or by using a separate ground wire

connected to the bare metal of the motor frame or other suitable means.

ELECTRICAL SHOCK ALERT.

Do not disassemble the motor housing. This pump has no repairable internal parts and

disassembling may cause leakage or dangerous electrical wiring issues.

ELECTRICAL SHOCK ALERT.

Make certain the electrical power source is adequate for the requirements of the pump.

ELECTRICAL SHOCK ALERT.

Never use an extension cord with this pump.

CHEMICAL ALERT.

This product contains chemicals known to the state of California to cause cancer and birth

defects or other reproductive harm.

HAZARDOUS PRESSURE ALERT.

Install pressure relief valve in discharge pipe. Release all pressure on system before working

on any component.

EXPLOSION ALERT

Do not use to pump ammable or explosive uids such as gasoline, fuel oil, kerosene, etc.

Do not use in ammable and/or explosive atmospheres.

Ventilation - Ventilation and drainage must be provided to prevent damage to the motor from heat

and moisture.

Freezing - Pump and all piping must be protected from freezing. If freezing weather is forecast, drain

pump or remove completely from the system.

Water Supply - The water source must be able to supply enough water to satisfy the capacity of

pump and water needs. See performance chart on page 2.

Suction Lift - Suction lift is the vertical distance from the lowest level of the water to the pump intake.

Pump will move water as long as it is within 25 vertical ft. of the water source.

Horizontal Distance - The horizontal distance is the horizontal measurement between pump suction

and the water source. This distance may a󰀨ect the ability of pump to operate. If it is more than 100 ft.,

call the manufacturer for assistance: 1-800-742-5044.

GENERAL PUMP INFORMATION

Typical Pump Setup

1. Shallow well jet pumps are designed for use

where the suction lift is 25 ft. or less. They

can be used with drilled or cased wells.

2. Jet pumps can also be used with dug wells,

driven wells or with cisterns or lakes.

1. Thread 1-1/4 in. male PVC adapter (not

included) into a 1-1/4 in. foot valve (not

included). Hand tighten, then tighten 1/2 turn

with a pipe wrench.

CAUTION: Dry-t entire assembly to ensure proper t before gluing or taping parts.

CAUTION: Follow all proper gluing procedures as specied by the glue manufacturer. Always

glue in a vertical direction whenever possible to prevent glue from dripping inside pipe or ttings

CAUTION: Use pipe tape and pipe paste compound on all male threads. Tighten with wrench to

a snug t and add another 1/4 turn to ensure proper seal.

Pipe And Fittings

3. Use galvanized steel or NSF PW Schedule

40 PVC pipe and ttings. This material is

designed for water pressure and will seal

against air and water under pressure. Do

not use DWV ttings, as these are designed

for drains without pressure and will not seal

properly.

CAUTION: The entire system must be

air and water tight for e󰀩cient operation and to

maintain prime.

Wire Size:

The wire size is determined by the distance from the power source to the pump motor and the

horsepower rating of the motor. See the wire chart on page 11 for proper wire size.

GENERAL PUMP INFORMATION

WELL TO PUMP CONNECTION (SUCTION PIPE)

3. Before sliding the pipe assembly into the

well, rmly clamp the assembly with a pipe

clamp (not included) to prevent the assembly

from sliding down into the well.

2. Using a 2-step PVC system (not included),

attach enough 1-1/4 in. PVC pipe and

couplings (not included) to the adapter to

equal the depth of the well, minus 5 ft.

Well Seal

4. Remove the pipe clamp and slide a well seal

(not included) over the PVC pipe and onto

the well casing. The PVC pipe should extend

approximately 12 in. above the top of the well

seal, depending on the height of the pump.

NOTE: Do not let the assembly slide down into the

well. Tighten the well seal until the rubber gaskets

are tight against the well casing and the PVC pipe.

5. Using a 2-step PVC system, attach a 1-1/4 in.

PVC elbow (not included) onto the rigid PVC

pipe extending from the well seal.

in Step 5.

NOTE: Be sure the pipe slopes downward slightly

from pump to the well to prevent air pockets.

1-1/4 in. Union

7. An optional 1-1/4 in. union (not included)

is recommended for easy connection and

disconnection.

1 in. Discharge Tee

1. Wrap thread tape around threads of a 1 in.

discharge tee (not included). Using a pipe

wrench, thread the 1 in. discharge tee into the

1 in. opening in the top of pump.

1 in. male PVC adapter

3. Wrap thread tape around the threads of a 1 in.

male PVC adapter (not included) and thread

the adapter into the discharge tee.

Pressure Gauge or

Pipe Plug with Bushing

2. Install a 1 in. MPT x 1/4 in. FPT galvanized

bushing and (optional) pressure gauge (both

not included), or a pipe plug (not included). Do

not tighten, as you will prime pump later at this

location.

4. Continue with 1 in. ttings and pipe to

the pressure tank. An optional 1 in. union

(not included) is recommended for easy

connection and disconnection. 1 in. union

3. Attach a 1 in. pipe (not included) to the elbow

and a 1 in. x 3/4 in. reducer bushing (not

included) to the pipe.

4. Attach a 3/4 in. pipe (not included) to the

reducer bushing. Install an optional 3/4

in. union (not included) and continue with

pipe and 3/4 in. x 3/4 in. x 3/4 in. tee (not
