PUMP
To prevent damage
to the pump, do not start
motor until pump has been filled with water.
NOTE: When the deep well pump is used
with the bolt-on shallow well jet, be sure the
control valve slot (Figure 12) is in the vertical
(open) position at all times.
1. Remove prime plug.
2. Fill pump and piping completely full of

water.
3. Replace the prime plug.
4. Open a faucet to vent the system.
5. Start the motor. Water will pump in a
few minutes. If pump fails to prime in 5
minutes, stop motor and refill pump with
water. Priming time is proportional to the
amount of air in inlet pipe. Do not allow
pump to get hot.
6. Let the system operate for several
minutes to flush all pipes.
7. Close faucet and allow pump to build
pressure in tank. When the pressure
reaches the cut-out setting, the motor
will stop.

PRIMING THE DEEP WELL PUMP
To prevent damage
to the pump, do not start
motor until pump has been filled with water.
1. Remove prime plug.
2. Fill pump and piping completely full of
water.
3. Replace the prime plug.

4. Close the control valve (Figure 12) and
open a nearby faucet.
5. Start the motor. The pressure inside the
pump body will build almost immediately
as the pump, jet and piping become
completely filled with water.
6. Slowly open the control valve. Water
will begin to flow. Continue to open
the control valve until maximum flow is
achieved. Opening the valve too far will
cause the water to stop flowing.
7. Adjust the valve until there is a steady
flow of water. The valve should be
opened as much as possible without
losing pressure.
8. Let the system operate for several
minutes to flush all piping.
9. Close the faucets and allow the pump
to build pressure in the tank. When the
pressure reaches the cut-out setting,
the motor will stop.
The system is now in operation and will
automatically cycle upon demand.

DRAINING THE PUMP
Drain openings are provided on all
models. To drain the pump:
1. Remove drain plug and prime plug to
vent the system.
2. Drain all piping to a point below the
freeze line.

DRAINING THE TANK
Turn
Conventional tanks can be drained by
Closed opening an outlet at the lowest point
in the system. Remove plug or the air
volume control to vent the tank.
Pre-charged tanks force virtually all
the water from the tank when system
pressure is released. No draining is
necessary.
RESTARTING PUMP
If the pump has been serviced, drained
or has not been used for some time, be
sure there is water in the pump housing
(volute) and the piping to the well. There
must be water in the pump housing
(volute) at all times when the pump is
running to avoid internal damage of seal
members (See Priming the Shallow Well
or Priming the Deep Well Sections).
WATERLOGGED TANKS:
CONVENTIONAL
When a tank system has an inadequate
ratio of air and water, the pump will start
and stop often and erratically.
1. Disconnect the power to the pump.
2. Open the lowest faucet in the system
3. Prime the pump (See Priming the
4. Reconnect the power to the pump.
NOTE: As the pump refills the tank with
water, the air volume control supplies the
tank with the correct air to water ratio for
the system to operate. If the air volume
control is good, the pump will shut off at
the desired cut-off and will be adjusted
correctly.

The tank must be replaced.
PRE-CHARGED TANK
Some air is lost through the bladder in any
tank. To prevent tank failure, check the
tank pre-charge on a yearly basis.
