INTRODUCTION

NOTE: This pump is intended for use only in parts cleaners listed by
Underwriters Laboratories. The combination of the fluid pumped, the pump,
and the design of the parts washer will determine if additional safety devices
such as low liquid level cut off are required. Refer to parts washer manufactur-
er's instructions to see if this is required.
The PE-1YSA and PE-2YSA are designed for submerged use only. The pump
motors are encapsulated in an epoxy resin and are intended to pump the
following fluids:
Metal parts cleaning solvents - Unheated metal parts cleaning solvents (clas-
sified as PJQU as described in the Gas and Oil Equipment Directory). These
solvents are refined petroleum distillates, which are free from tendency to heat
spontaneously. They have a closed cup flash point not lower than 100°F. The
low flash point of these combustible liquids does present a moderate fire hazard.
Operating the pump fully submerged offers added protection from fire risk.
Aqueous cleaning solutions - These are water-based solutions that should not be
used in excess of 140°F and a maximum pH of 12.
These are typical fluids that are compatible with the pump materials.
1. The low flash point of these combustible liquids does present a moderate
fire hazard. Operating the pump fully submerged offers added protection
from fire risk. For other solvent handling precautions, consult the material
safety data sheet (OSHA–20 form, or equivalent) for the solvent used.
2. Use any metal parts cleaning solvents that are UL approved or aqueous
cleaning solutions. The use of fluids such as gasoline and lower flash point
solvents is dangerous and may cause explosions or fire.

INSTALLATION
The power cord supplied with this pump should not be in contact with solution.
The solution may attack the cord insulation causing cord to become stiff or
lowering the insulating properties. The pump is supplied with a three conduc-

tor power cord. The third conductor is to ground the pump to prevent possible
electrical shock hazard.
1. Seal the power cord inside of liquid-tight, 1/2" NPT, steel intermediate
metal conduit. Use caution to ensure the cord will have no nicks or cuts.
2. Consult the pump nameplate data for proper voltage and frequency. The
black (or brown) and white (or blue) wires are live and the green (or green/
yellow) wire is the ground wire.
3. Be sure that the pump is fully submerged in the cleaning solution.
4. Connect the pump power cord to a properly grounded, grounding–type
receptacle.
5. The pump must be protected by a GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter)
when pumping water-based solutions.
DISCONNECT THE PUMP FROM THE POWER SOURCE BEFORE
ATTEMPTING TO SERVICE OR REMOVE ANY COMPONENT!
1. This unit is permanently lubricated. Oiling is not required.
2. Periodic cleaning of the pump parts will prolong the LIFE and EFFICIENCY
of the pump. Refer to Figure 2 for the assembly and disassembly of the
pumping head.
3. Lightly clean any corrosion or debris which may clog the impeller. Use a
brush and penetrating oil and lightly scrape. NOTE: Do not allow sediment
from parts being washed to build up and restrict the flow of fluid into the
pump.
4. Turn the impeller by hand to make sure it is free. If it does not turn or if
pump is tripping circuit breaker, or not operating properly after cleaning,
return to Little Giant. Do not attempt repairs yourself. If it does turn replace
volute and re–install into parts washer.
5. Be certain power cord is protected from solvent and contains no nicks or
cuts.
1. Before servicing the pump, see solvent and equipment manufacturer's
instructions for further safety information and possible hazards.
2. Follow all local electrical and safety codes, as well as the National Electrical
Code (NEC) and the Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA).
3. This pump must be properly grounded while in use to protect the operator
from electrical shock.
4. The pump must be protected by a GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter)
when pumping water-based solutions.
5. Always disconnect power source before working on the pump. If the power
disconnect point is out of sight, lock in the open position and tag to pre-
vent unexpected application of power.
6. Do not attempt to make your own parts cleaners.
