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 1-1/4" 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. Use a round le or knife to
smooth the inside of any rigid PVC
pipe that has been cut.
6. Thread a 1-1/4" male PVC adapter into
the front of pump. Hand tighten, then
turn 1/4 turn with wrench.
STEPS 7–9 ARE FOR THE ACE5C AND
ACE10C CONVERTIBLE PUMPS
7. Open ejector kit
(ACE-E5C for
1/2 HP; ACE-E10C for
1 HP). Thread shorter
venturi tube into
ejector on top of the
nozzle until snug.
Place gasket over venturi tube so that openings in gasket
line up with openings in ejector.
8. Slide bolts through the bolt openings
on either side of the ejector, through
the gasket and bolt ejector to front
of the pump. Tighten bolts securely.
9. Thread a 1-1/4" male PVC adapter
into front of ejector. Hand tighten,
then turn 1/4 turn with wrench.
10. Cement
as many
sections and
couplings
of PVC pipe
needed to
connect the
PVC elbow to the 1-1/4" male PVC adapter in the front
of the pump.
11. Apply 2-3 wraps of PTFE pipe
thread sealant tape tape to the male
threads on the discharge tee. Using
pipe wrench, thread discharge tee
into top of pump. Remove pressure
gauge plug from top of discharge
tee.
12. Prime pump as described in Priming the Pump.
13. Apply 2-3 wraps of PTFE pipe thread
sealant tape tape to plug and gauge
threads. Thread pressure gauge
plug into discharge tee and thread
pressure gauge into pressure gauge
plug. Make sure all connections are
tightly sealed.
14. Complete all electrical connections as described in Wiring
Your Pump.
15. Screw 1" male PVC adapter
into discharge tee outlet.
16. 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.
17. Thread 1/2" boiler drain into front
