Use wire size specified in Wiring Chart (Page 6).
If possible, connect pump to a separate branch
circuit with no other appliances on it.
Wire motor according to diagram on motor
nameplate. If nameplate diagram differs from dia-
grams above, follow nameplate diagram.
Step 1. Install, ground, wire and maintain this pump in
accordance with electrical code requirements.
Consult your local building inspector for infor-
mation about codes.
Step 2. Provide a correctly fused disconnect switch for
protection while working on motor. Consult
local or national electrical codes for switch
requirements.
Step 3. Disconnect power before servicing motor or
pump. If the disconnect switch is out of sight of
pump, lock it open and tag it to prevent unex-
pected power application.
Step 4. Ground the pump permanently using a wire of
the same size as that specified in wiring chart.
Make ground connection to green grounding ter-
minal under motor canopy marked GRD. or
Step 5. Connect ground wire to a grounded lead in the
service panel or to a metal underground water
pipe or well casing at least 10 feet long. Do not
connect to plastic pipe or insulated fittings.

Step 6. Protect current carrying and grounding conduc-
tors from cuts, grease, heat, oil, and chemicals.
Step 7. Connect current carrying conductors to termi-
nals L1 and L2 under motor canopy. When
replacing motor, check wiring diagram on motor
nameplate against Figure 3. If the motor wiring
diagram does not match either diagram in Figure
3, follow the diagram on the motor.
IMPORTANT: 115/230 Volt single phase models are
shipped from factory with motor wired for 230 volts. If
power supply is 115 volts, remove motor canopy and
reconnect motor as shown in Figure 3. Do not try to run
motor as received on 115 volt current.
Step 8. Motor has automatic internal thermal overload
protection. If motor has stopped for unknown
reasons, thermal overload may restart it unex-
pectedly, which could cause injury or property
damage. Disconnect power before servicing
motor.
Step 9. If this procedure or the wiring diagrams are con-
fusing, consult a licensed electrician.
