Troubleshooting

Read and understand the safety and operating instructions in this manual before doing any work on the pump! Only qualified personnel
should electrically test the pump motor!
WATER LEAKING AROUND THE MOTOR
A water leak in the area of the motor to the pump connection indicates a mechanical seal failure and a shock hazard. Take the pump out
of service and replace the seal immediately to avoid damage to other components and to reduce the risk of an electric shock. Refer to the
pump maintenance section.
FAILURE TO PUMP: REDUCED CAPACITY OR DISCHARGE PRESSURE SUCTION LEAKS/LOST PRIME:
1. The pump must be primed; make sure that the pump body and the basket body are full of water. See the priming instructions.
2. Make sure there are no leaks in the suction piping.
3. Make sure the suction inlet is well below the water level to prevent the pump from sucking air.
4. Lower the pump closer (vertically) to the water source or install check valve in the suction line.
WARNING: Some safety vacuum release system (SVRS) devices are not compatible with the installation of check valves. If the pool has an
SVRS device, be sure to confirm that it will continue to safely operate when any check valves are installed.
FAILURE TO PUMP: CLOGGED PIPE/TRAP/IMPELLER, WORN IMPELLER:
5. Make sure the suction trap is not clogged; if it is, clean the trap and the strainer. See Maintenance section.
6. Make sure the impeller is not clogged (follow steps 1 through 7 under "DISASSEMBLY"; check the impeller for clogging; and follow steps
under "REASSEMBLY".
7. Impeller and diffuser may be worn. If so, order replacement parts by calling 1-888-658-1594.
8. The pump may be trying to push too high a column of water. If so, a "higher head" pump is needed. Call us at 1-888-658-1594.
FAILURE TO PUMP: ELECTRICAL
9. The pump may be running too slowly. Check voltage at the motor terminals and at the meter while the pump is running. If low, see wiring
instructions or consult power company. Check for loose connections.
10. The pump may be too hot.
A. Check line voltage; if less than 90% or more than 110% of rated voltage consult a licensed electrician.
B. Increase ventilation.
C. Reduce ambient temperature.
D. Tighten any loose connections.
