Check drive coupling alignment. (Refer to Coupling
Alignment section for instructions.)
Check motor wiring.
1. All electrical work must be done
WARNING
by a licensed electrician.
2. Before working on pump and/or
motor be certain the electrical power
is off at the main junction box.
3. Disconnect the fuse or circuit breaker
Hazardous voltage
and have the main switch tagged
can shock, burn or
cause death.
"DO NOT ENERGIZE THIS
SWITCH, PERSONNEL WORKING
ON EQUIPMENT."
4. Some motors are equipped with built-in thermal
overloads to shut off the motors in the event the
temperature becomes excessive (as a result of
mechanical or electrical problems, such as low
voltage, poor ventilation, overloaded lines, etc.).
These motors will restart automatically as the motor
cools down. For safety sake, DO NOT work on any
motor without shutting off the electricity.
5. Never operate an electric motor driven pump
without properly grounding the motor frame. Serious
injury or death by electrocution could result.
6. Drain pump casing completely before taking pump
apart. It is advisable to flush the inside of the casing
with water before taking pump apart.
7. Never start pump before putting
WARNING
back all necessary guards such as
coupling guard.
Hazardous Machinery
• After stabilizing the system at normal operating conditions,
check the piping. If necessary, adjust the pipe supports.
• On frame-mounted units, coupling alignment may have
changed due to the temperature differential between pump
and motor. Recheck alignment following procedures and
hazard warnings in "COUPLING ALIGNMENT" section of
this manual.

SEASONAL SERVICE

• To REMOVE pump from service, remove drain plug and
drain all unprotected piping.
• To RETURN pump to service, replace drain plug using
