GENERAL SAFETY

1. To avoid risk of serious bodily injury and property damage,
read the safety instructions carefully before installing this
pump.
2. Follow local and/or national plumbing, building and elec-
trical codes when installing the pump. Use rigid pipe when
installing this pump.
3. Hazardous Pressure. The pump body
may explode if used to boost pressure above 100 psi
(690 kPa). Do not use this pump with inlet pressure
greater than 50 psi (345 kPa). If not already in the plumb-
ing system, install a pressure relief valve in the pump dis-
charge line capable of passing the full pump flow at 100
psi (689 kPa). If local code requires installation of a pres-
sure relief valve capable of handling the full pump flow at
a pressure less than 100 psi (689 kPa), follow the code
requirements.
4. A low pressure safety cutoff switch is recommended to
shut off power to the pump in case of low discharge pres-
sure due to interruption of the incoming water supply, bro-
ken pipe, etc.
5. Never run the pump dry. To do so can damage internal
parts, overheat pump (which can cause burns to people
handling or servicing pump), and will void warranty.
WA-253P7570
6. Risk of fire or explosion. To avoid risk of
fire and explosion, Pump Water Only with this pump. Do
not pump flammable liquids or chemicals. Do not use the
pump near gas pilot lights or where chemical or gas fumes
are present. Use of an electric pump with liquids other
than water or in an atmosphere containing chemical or gas
fumes may ignite those liquids or gases and cause injury
or death due to an explosion and/or fire.
7. Burn Hazard. If water is trapped in the
pump during operation it may turn to steam. Trapped
steam can lead to an explosion and burns. Never run the
pump with the outlet closed or obstructed.
8. Do not touch an operating motor. Modern
motors can operate at high temperatures. To avoid burns
when servicing the pump, allow it to cool for 20 minutes
after shut-down before handling.

ELECTRICAL SAFETY

The pump is supplied with a 3-conductor grounding
type cord. Connect only to a properly grounded, GFCI
protected outlet. Do not lift the pump by the electrical
cord.
Hazardous voltage. Can shock, burn or cause
death. Ground the pump before connecting to a power supply.
Disconnect the power before working on the pump, motor or
tank.
The pump and controller are non-submersible. Keep
the motor dry at all times. Do not wash the motor.
Do not immerse. Protect the motor from wet weather.
If using an extension cord, use only an approved
indoor/outdoor, 3-wire, grounding type cord. Do not
allow any part of the cord or the receptacle ends to sit in
water or in damp locations.
Unplug the pump before servicing. To avoid fatal
shock, proceed as follows if the pump needs servicing.
A. Disconnect the power to the pump outlet box before
unplugging the pump. After the plug is pulled, let the
pump cool for 20 minutes before attempting to work on it.
B. Take extreme care when changing fuses. To reduce the
chance of fatal electrical shock, DO NOT stand in water or
put your finger in the fuse socket.
C. Ground the electrical outlet box.
D. Plug the pump and the controller into a Ground Fault
Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) protected grounded outlet
only.
