Installation
4. HOLD THE PIPE, remove pipe
clamp and slide well seal over
rigid PVC pipe and onto well
casing. Position assembly so
that twelve inches of rigid PVC
pipe protrude from well seal.
Alternately turn bolts on well seal
clockwise until rubber gaskets are
tight against well casing and rigid
PVC pipe.
5. Cement 1-1/4" PVC elbow onto
rigid PVC pipe protruding from
well seal. If desired, some length
may be cut off of rigid PVC pipe
before cementing elbow. Smooth
the inside of any rigid PVC pipe
that has been cut with a round
file or knife.
6. If you are using the CLTS5 or
CLTS10 pump, thread a 1-1/4"
male PVC adapter into the front
of it. Hand tighten, then turn
1/4 turn with crescent wrench.
Seal the threaded pipe joints with
PTFE pipe thread sealant tape or PTFE-based pipe
joint compound approved for use on PVC.
Priming Shallow Well Jet Pumps
Steps 7–12 are for CL520 and CL100 convertible pumps.
See kit instruction sheet.
7. Open ejector kit.
Gasket
Replace the deep
well nozzle with the
appropriate shallow
well nozzle, and
tighten until snug.
Thread shorter
venturi tube into
ejector until snug. Place gasket over venturi tube
so that openings in gasket line up with openings in
ejector.
8. Slide bolts through the bolt
openings on either side of the
ejector, through the gasket and
bolt ejector to front of the pump.
Tighten bolts securely.
9. Thread a 1-1/4" male PVC
adapter into front of ejector.
Hand tighten, then turn 1/4 turn
with wrench. Seal the threaded
pipe joints with PTFE pipe thread
sealant tape or PTFE-based pipe
joint compound approved for use on PVC.

Sealing Pipe Joints
Use only PTFE pipe thread sealant tape or PTFE-
based pipe joint compound for making all threaded
connections to the pump itself. Do not use pipe joint
compounds on plastic pumps: they can react with the
