Rules for safe installation and operation.
Read these warnings and instructions carefully . Failure to follow them could cause serious bodily injury and/or property damage .
Follow all local electrical and safety codes as well as
the National Electrical Code (NEC) and the
Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA).
The power supply should be a separate circuit, independent
of all other circuits. Be sure it is equipped with a fuse and
disconnect box of ample capacity.
Always disconnect power source before performing
any work on or near the motor or its connected load.
If the power disconnect point is out-of-sight, lock it
in the open position and tag it to prevent unexpected
application of power. Failure to do so could result in fatal
electrical shock.
DO NOT handle pump with wet hands or when
standing in water as fatal electrical shock could
occur. Disconnect main power supply before
handling pump for any reason.
Shut off power source when voltage drops below 210 on
230 volt installations.
Protect the power cable from coming in contact with sharp
objects, oil, grease, hot surfaces or chemicals. DO NOT kink
the power cable. If damaged replace immediately.
NEVER leave the control box, fused disconnect switch, or
covers open (either partially or completely) when not being
worked on by a competent electrician or repairman.
Always use caution when operating electrical
controls in damp areas. If possible, avoid all contact
with electrical equipment during thunderstorms or
extreme damp conditions.
Install all electrical equipment in protected area to prevent
mechanical damage which could produce serious electrical
shock and/or equipment failure.
Do not use power factor correction capacitors with the drive
controller. Damage will result to both motor and drive.
NOTE: Units with the "ETL/CUS" mark are tested to UL standard
UL508C & CSA standard C22 .2 No . 274 .
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Pump is designed to pump cold ground water that is
free of air or gases. Decreased pump performance and
life expectancy can occur if the ground water is not cold
(86ºF/30ºC) or contains air or gases.

DO NOT use this pump to pump flammable liquids such as
gasoline, fuel oil, kerosene, etc. Failure to follow the above
warning could result in property damage and/or personal
injury.

Pump and controls must be securely and adequately
grounded as specified in section 250-43 item (A) of
the U.S.A. National Electric Code (NEC) and Section

The pump is intended for use in a well. Motor frame
must be connected to power supply ground or fatal
electrical shock may result. Do not use this pump in
swimming pools.
Capacitors inside the drive controller can still hold a
lethal voltage even after power has been removed.
Allow 10 minutes for dangerous internal voltage to
discharge before making changes to input power or
Do not use motor or system in swimming areas or in
fire suppression systems.
