Warranty The manufacturer warrants the products to be free from defects in materials and workmanship for a period of one year from date of purchase. This warranty applies only to the original consumer purchaser and only to products used in normal use and service.
Pre-Installation APPLICATION This unit is a convertible jet pump designed for pumping water where the water level is less than 70 ft. deep. If the water level to the pump is deeper than 70 ft., a deep well submersible pump should be selected. A pressure switch pre-set at 30 psi "on"/ 50 psi "off" has been installed on the pump. The pressure switch will automatically turn the pump on and off based on the system pressure.
Pre-Installation (continued) DETERMINE THE DEPTH OF YOUR WELL Tie a small but heavy weight such as a fishing weight to the end of a piece of cotton string. Lower the weight into the well until it reaches the bottom of the well. Make a mark on the string at ground level. Pull the weight out of the well and measure from the bottom of the weight to the ground level mark. This is the depth of your well. Subtract 5 ft. from the depth of your well. If this number is less than 25 ft.
Shallow Well Installation (continued) REPLACING AN EXISTING PUMP WARNING: Risk of electric shock. Can shock, burn or kill. Disconnect power to pump before working on pump or motor. 1. Drain and remove the old pump. Check the old pipe for scale, lime, rust, etc., and replace it if necessary. 2. Install the pressure gauge in the pump body. 3. Install the pump in the system. Make sure that all pipe joints in the suction pipe are air-tight as well as water tight.
Shallow Well Installation (continued) New Shallow Well Installation (Depth to Water 25 feet or less) CAUTION: To avoid skin burns, unplug the pump and allow time for it to cool after periods of extended use. 1 Connecting (E) Schedule 80 PVC or Flex pipe to the (A) foot valve. Review local codes for pipe specifications. WARNING: Read the cement instructions carefully and make sure the pipe connections are strong enough. This pump could build up to 70 psi pressure in the system.
Shallow Well Installation (continued) 5 Connect the (E) PVC or flexible pipe to the pump inlet Position the pump as close to the well as possible. Connect a section of 1-1/4 in. PVC or Flexible pipe to the pump inlet. Attach a (J) 1-1/4 in. check valve (sold separately) to the other end of the PVC or Flexible pipe. Attach another section of 1-1/4 in. PVC or flexible pipe to the other end of the check valve.
Shallow Well Installation (continued) 9 Connecting a (M) 10 in. tank tee to the pressure tank (tank tee size may vary based on tank size) Wrap all threads on tank tee with thread tape. In order for the pump and the pressure tank (sold separately) to operate properly, the pressure tank must be drained of all water BEFORE INSTALLING TO THE PUMP. Thread a (M) 10 in. tank tee (sold separately) or recommended size based on pressure tank size.
Shallow Well Installation (continued) 13 Voltage setting WARNING: All electrical work should be performed by a licensed electrician. This pump is pre-wired at 230 volts. If the power source is 115 volts, remove the electrical housing cover. Flip the switch to 115 volts. Replace the cover. Proceed to the Pressure Switch Assembly Instructions section below.

Deep Well Installation (continued) 2 3 Attaching the nozzle and venturi to the ejector Wrap the threads of the venturi tube (2) (J32P-18/#11) with thread tape. Attach the O-ring (4) on the nozzle (3) (#02) and screw the nozzle (3) (#02) into the venturi tube (2) (J32P-18/#11). Attach the venturi tube (2) (J32P-18/#11) with the nozzle (3) and O-ring (4) to the Ejector. Connecting the (A) foot valve to the ejector Wrap both ends of a (U) 1-1/4 in. x 4 in.
Deep Well Installation (continued) 6 7 Slide a (H) 4 in. Well Seal over the (E) PVC or Flexible Pipe Remove the pipe clamp and slide the (H) 4 in. well seal (sold separately) over the PVC or Flexible pipe and onto the well casing (not shown). The PVC or Flexible Pipe should extend approximately 12 in. from the well seal, depending on the height of the pump placement. Tighten the well seal until the rubber gaskets are tight against the well casing and the PVC pipe. Attaching a (R) 1 in.
Deep Well Installation (continued) 10 Removing the elbow insert from the pump body 11 Pull out the pressure tube from the 90° elbow insert. Unthread and remove the elbow insert from the pump body. 12 Wrap the threads of the 1/4 in. pressure gauge (included) with thread tape and thread it in the elbow insert hole. Cut off the expanded portion of the pressure tube. 13 Priming the pipe & pump Fill the pipe with water until water overflows. Replace the plug back to the tee.
Deep Well Installation (continued) 14 15 Connecting the brass elbow to the pressure regulator Thread the 1/4 in. disassembled elbow insert into the 1/4 in. hole on the side of the pressure regulator. Slide the pressure tubing (attached with the pump pressure switch or included in regulator kit) over the 1/4 in. brass elbow and the pressure switch connector. Connecting the PVC adapter to the pressure regulator Wrap thread tape around the threads of a 3/4 in. MNPT x 1 in.
Deep Well Installation (continued) 18 Connecting the pump with the water system 19 CAUTION: Never install a shut-off valve between the pump and the tank, as this can cause excessive friction loss and can damage the pressure switch and/or pump. If necessary, only install a fully open gate valve (sold separately). WARNING: All electrical work should be performed by a licensed electrician. Using PVC purple primer and PVC cement, attach a section of 1 in.
Troubleshooting Do Do Not Remove the drain plug (located on the front of the pump close to the inlet hole) and air plug (located on the top of the pump close to the outlet hole) to vent the system. Drain all piping to a point below the freeze line. Do not disassemble the motor housing. This motor has NO repairable internal parts, and disassembly may cause dangerous electrical wiring issues.
