PERFORMANCES
Height, pipe diameter restriction and hose length will reduce the pump output performance.
It is recommended to use the same size or larger pipe/ hose as the pump discharge for optimum
performance. The performances listed below were obtained by using 1-1/4” pipe. The use of a
garden hose will reduce the output depending on size and length of hose used. To keep friction as
low as possible, the hose must be 1/2” or larger. Use the shortest length of hose possible for your
application.

MAINTENANCE
1. The pump motor is hermetically sealed in the housing and does not require any service.
Disassembly of the motor housing or modication of the power cord voids the warranty.
2. Periodically check the intake screen for obstructions. Clean if necessary.
3. Inspect the impeller for signs of wear and obstructions.
4. Inspect the power cord for signs of damage or wear. Do not operate the pump if the cord is
damaged or worn.
