WARNING! For fixed length pumps:
Confirm that the lifting eyebolt is properly torqued to 10 ft-lbs (13.6 N•m) with a minimum of 6 full threads in-
stalled. Occasionally, eyebolts are removed after pump installation and corrosion may occur in the threaded
areas of the wiring compartment cover (eyebolt plug) and the eyebolt. If corrosion has occurred, the cover

Utilize the lifting eyebolt to suspend the pump vertically and then install the pump onto the riser pipe until
watertight and in alignment with the piping to the dispensers.
