THINGS TO KNOW 2” female discharge port – at top of pump, accepts 2” NPT male hose For greater versatility, can come with quick connect coupling Portable because it’s lightweight – 32.95 lbs, and has carrying handle Maneuverable into tight spaces, easily transported 304 stainless steel screen, 20 gauge thickness Debris larger than .
THINGS TO KNOW Pump and motor section form a pressure-tight encapsulated unit Motor housing constructed from stainless steel material Impeller made of cast iron (one very tough plastic) Connection chamber with cover and watertight cable inlet and strain relief Motor is dynamically balanced with temperature monitor in the stator, which switches off the pump in the case of overheating and switches on automatically after cooling down Shaft is made of stainless steel Water being pumped flows
SAFETY INFORMATION Pump water only Never use worn or damaged cables. Inspect for cuts in the insulation. Never attempt to use the power cord as a lifting or lowering device for the pump Always lift the pump by it’s carrying handle or attached rope to carrying handle Always make sure electrical circuits are properly grounded A fully submerged pump in liquid will not freeze, unless the liquid freezes Do not allow a partially submerged pump to freeze.
WARNING Do not operate near potentially explosive environment Do not use in presence of flammable liquids or gases Make sure product is properly grounded and provided with leakage breaker to prevent users from serious electric shock Always turn off the power before inspection, maintenance, and adjustment Never attempt to change the settings of all protective devices without consulting with licensed electrician The product is designed for moving water.
