Pipe Connections
For best performance use P.V.C. or
polythene pipe at least the same
diameter as the pump’s inlet. Larger
diameter pipe may be used to minimise

Before installing your new pump, please read all instructions carefully as failures
caused by incorrect installation or operation are not covered by the guarantee.
Your Dynao HS Electric Pump is designed to handle clean water. The pump
should not be used for any other purpose without specic referral to Davey.
The use of the pump to pump ammable, corrosive and other materials of a
hazardous nature is specically excluded.
Connect lead to power supply designated on pump label, do not
use long extension leads as they cause substantial voltage drop,
poor pump performance and may cause motor overload.
The electrical connections and checks must be made by a
qualied electrician and comply with applicable local standards.
DO NOT USE THREAD SEALING COMPOUNDS, HEMP OR PIPE
DOPE!
NOTE: Suction leaks are the largest
cause of poor pump performance
and are difcult to detect. Ensure
all connections are completely
sealed using thread tape only.
DO NOT USE SEALING COM-
POUNDS OR PIPE DOPE.
NOTE: DO NOT install the check valve at the pump or at the top of
the well. DO NOT run the pump without water.
NOTE: Be certain to select the spear point to suit the well conditions
and regulate the ow rate from the pump accordingly.
NOTE: Prior to installation remove the red transport plugs & associated seals from
the suction and/or discharge ports.
NOTE: HS models are tted with an in-built suction check valve
which should be removed on all suction lift applications and a
foot valve or check valve installed in the suction pipework as
appropriate.
