Installation
Process C, continued.
4. 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
counterclockwise until rubber
gaskets are tight against well casing
and rigid PVC pipe.
5. Cement 1-1/4" 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. Smooth the inside of any rigid
PVC pipe that has been cut with a
round file or knife.
6. Thread a 1-1/4" male PVC adapter into
the front of the pump. Hand tighten,
then turn 1/4 turn with crescent
wrench.

7. Complete all electrical connections as on pages 2
and 3 in the preinstallation instructions.
8. Screw 1" male PVC adapter
into discharge tee outlet.
9. Thread 10" x 1" nipple into
pressure tank. Thread tank
cross into nipple so that the
two 1/4" holes in tank cross
face upward. Plug two outlets
on tank cross with two 1/4"
plugs.
10. Thread 1/2" boiler drain into
front of tank cross. Thread 1"
male PVC adapter into inlet
side of tank cross. Connect to
household plumbing.

needed to connect the 1" male PVC adapter in the discharge
tee to the 1" male adapter on the tank cross inlet. Set
pressure in the diaphragm pressure tank to
2 pounds less than the cut-in pressure of the pump. The
cut-in pressure of these pumps is factory preset to 30 PSI.
If this cut-in setting has not been changed, then the
diaphragm pressure tank should be set to 28 PSI. Total
installation should look like the drawing below.

piping and pump with water
until the water overflows
from the top of pump case.
Replace plug and tighten to
seal. Install pressure gauge.
Open a faucet or two in the
house. 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 pressure gauge plug
from discharge tee, add more water, try again.
