1. The shaft seal depends on water for lubrication
and cooling. Do not operate the pump unless it
is submerged in water as seal may be damaged
if allowed to run dry.
2. The pump will not remove all water. During
manual operation the pump will pump down
to within 1/8" of the pumping surface. If the
optional switch is used, the final water level is
determined by placement of the switch.

NOTICE For long cycle times, the pump
must be submerged to prevent the motor
from overheating. A fully submerged pump is
preferred for proper cooling when a pump runs
for a long time.

Airlocks
When a pump airlocks, it runs but does not
move any water. See Figure 2. An airlock
will cause the pump to overheat and fail. The
pumps have a built in anti-airlock hole. See the
exploded view on the repair parts page for the
location of the hole. Water leakage from the
anti-airlock hole is normal.

If you suspect an airlock, unplug the pump,
clean out the anti-airlock hole with a paper clip
or a piece of wire, and restart the pump.
