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 1-1/2" 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. Use a round file or knife
to smooth the inside of any
rigid PVC pipe that has been
cut.
6. Thread a 1-1/2" male PVC
adapter into the front of pump.
Hand tighten, then turn 1/4 turn
with wrench.
7. Cement
as many
sections and
couplings
of PVC pipe
needed to
connect the
PVC elbow to the 1-1/2" male PVC adapter in the front of
the pump.
8. Using pipe wrench, thread
1-1/2" discharge tee into top
of pump. Remove 1-1/2" plug
from top of discharge tee.
Put a garden hose into top of
discharge tee. Fill pipes and
pump until water overflows
from top of discharge tee. This
may take several minutes.
9. Thread the 1-1/2" pipe plug back
into the top of discharge tee.
10. Complete all electrical connections as specified on page 2
in the pre-installation instructions.

11. Place a large bucket beneath
discharge tee outlet. Start
motor. If pump is offset from well
4 feet or more, it may take a
few minutes for pump to prime.
Failure to prime in 5 minutes:
Stop motor, remove 1-1/2" plug
from discharge tee, add more
water, try again.
12. Allow pump to run long
enough to clear well of
sediment and to insure well
will not run dry. Stop motor.
Thread 1-1/2" make PVC
adapter into discharge tee
outlet.
13. Cement as many PVC pipe sections and couplings needed
to connect the 1-1/2" male PVC adapter to inground
sprinkler system. Complete installation should look like the
figure below.
