Hazardous suction.
Can trap hair or
body parts, causing
severe injury
or death.
Do not block
suction.

UNCRATING AND INSPECTION

Handle with care.
Check items received against packing list to be sure that all equipment has
been received.
Inspect for shipping damage. If found, file claim with carrier immediately.
Cleanup
Clean up all trash and other materials which will interfere with installation
from foundation and surrounding area.
For easy assembly, make sure all threaded joints and mating surfaces are
clean. If necessary, clean with wire brush and solvent.
To reduce danger of explosion and fire, do not use gasoline
as a cleaning solvent. Do not allow debris, trash, or other foreign material to
collect around pump motor.
Remove all foreign material (packing, etc.) from pump and strainer.

INSTALLATION

Only qualified, licensed personnel should install pump and wiring.
Foundation
Foundation must:
Be Solid - Level - Rigid - Vibration free.
Be provided with necessary hold-down bolts, washers, and shims.
Allow pump inlet to be as close to water level as possible.
Use short, direct suction pipe (to reduce friction losses).
Maximum suction lift is 10' (3 m).
Allow for isolation valves in suction and discharge piping.
Have adequate floor drainage to prevent flooding.
Be protected from excess moisture.
Allow adequate access for servicing pump and piping.
Piping – General
System piping must be at least equal to size of pump connections.
To prevent strain on the pump casing and foundation, pipe and fittings must
be aligned to pump without forcing.
To avoid strains on the pump, support both suction and discharge pipes
independently. Place these supports near the pump.
To avoid a strain left by a gap at the last connection, start all piping at the
pump and run pipe away from the pump.
Piping – Suction
Risk of severe injury or drowning from hair or body
entrapment. To reduce risk of entrapment against pump suc-
tion opening, connect pump to multiple drains and skimmers
of non-entrapment design. See "Pool Pump Suction
Requirements," Pages 7 and 8.
NOTICE: If pump suction becomes clogged, pump will cavitate, damaging
pump internal parts. Keep suction pipe clear of debris, dirt, etc.
NOTICE: To prevent flooding when removing pump for service, all flooded
suction systems must have valves in suction and discharge pipes.
Use at least 6" (152 mm) pipe. Never use a suction pipe smaller than the
pump suction connection.
