Safety Information (continued) IMPORTANT: This pump is made of high-strength, corrosion-resistant materials. It will provide trouble-free service for a long time when properly installed, maintained, and used. However, inadequate electrical power to the pump, dirt, or debris may cause the pump to fail. Please carefully read the manual and follow the instructions regarding common pump problems and remedies. IMPORTANT: Ensure the electrical power source is adequate for the requirements of the pump.
Pre-Installation APPLICATION This unit is a single stage jet pump designed for shallow water well applications, where the water level is less than 25 ft. deep. If the water level to the pump is deeper than 25 ft., a convertible jet pump or a deep well submersible pump should be used. 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.
Installation WARNING: ELECTRICAL SAFETY Capacitor voltage may be hazardous. To discharge the motor capacitor, hold the insulated handle screwdriver BY THE HANDLE and short capacitor terminals together. Do not touch the metal screwdriver blade or capacitor terminals. If in doubt, consult a qualified electrician. CAUTION: Do not touch an operating motor. Modern motors are designed to operate at high temperatures.
Installation (continued) WELL POINT (DRIVEN POINT) INSTALLATION Drive the well, using drive couplings and a drive cap. Drive fittings are threaded all the way through and allow the pipe ends to butt against each other so that the driving force of the maul is carried by the pipe and not by the threads. The ordinary fittings found in hardware stores are not threaded all the way through the fitting and can collapse under impact.
Installation (continued) CASED WELL INSTALLATION, 2 IN. ORLARGER CASING Mount the pump as close to the well as possible. Assemble the foot valve, strainer, and well pipe. Make sure that the foot valve works freely. Lower the pipe into the well until the strainer is 5 ft. above the bottom of the well. It should also be at least 10 ft. below the well’s water level while the pump is running in order to prevent the pump from sucking air. Install a sanitary well seal.
Installation (continued) INSTALLATION FOR SURFACE WATER The pump should be installed as close to the water as possible, with the fewest possible fittings (especially elbows) in the suction pipe. The suction pipe should be at least as large as the suction port on the pump. Assemble a foot valve and suction pipe. Make sure that the foot valve works freely. Use Teflon tape on threaded pipe joints. Protect the foot valve assembly from fish, trash, etc, by installing a screen around it.
Discharge Pipe and Pressure Tank Connections PRE-CHARGE TANK CONNECTION Install two tees in the pump discharge port. The pipe size must be at least as large as the discharge port. NOTE: A pre-plumbed pump-on-tank system only requires one tee. Run a pipe or reinforced hose from one arm of the first tee to the port on the pre-charged tank. Connect the other discharge tee to your plumbing system. Check the pre-charge of air in the tank with an ordinary tire gauge.
Discharge Pipe and Pressure Tank Connections (continued) STANDARD TANK CONNECTION Install a tee in the pump discharge port. Run a pipe from the pump discharge port to the inlet port of your tank. The pipe size must be at least as large as the discharge port. Install a tee with reducing bushings in the suction pipe as shown. Install a barbed fitting in the smallest bushing(1/8" NPT).
Pressure Switch Assembly Instructions WARNING: Before wiring the pressure switch, turn off the power source to which you are connecting to avoid potentially life threatening electrical shock. WARNING: It is recommended all electrical work be performed by a licensed electrician. WARNING: When wiring from the power source to the pressure switch, it is recommended that you use either a 14-gauge or 12-gauge cord. To complete the installation, you must connect the power source to the pressure switch.
Priming WARNING: Never run the pump against a closed discharge. To do so can boil water inside the pump, causing hazardous pressure in the unit, risk of explosion and possibly scalding persons handling the pump. CAUTION: Never run the pump dry. Running the pump without water may cause the pump to overheat, damaging the seal and possibly causing burns to persons handling the pump. Fill the pump with water before starting. Remove the priming plug from the priming tee and fill the pump.
Troubleshooting Problem Possible Cause Corrective Action Pump humming. 1. The motor shaft stuck. 1. 1.1 Please use a flat head screw driver to turn the motor shaft through the center hole on the motor cap. Then restart the pump. 1.2 Clean impeller and diffuser. 2. Pump was pre-set at 230V. Refer to manual for set voltage to 115V. 2. Selected wrong voltage. Does not pump water or low flow. 1. Air in piping or did not prime. 2. The water level in the well is below the foot valve. 3.
