Ensure all fasteners are tightened properly
Use prescribed pipe sizes as mentioned on the product nameplate
Fit the strainer provided
After installation, prime the set before starting the pump
Do not install the Single Phase Self-Priming Monoblock with high static suction lift
It is recommended to assemble the Single Phase Self-Priming Monoblock on a level base with
foundation bolts to prevent the pump and piping from getting stressed
As the Single Phase Self-Priming Monoblock is air cooled, ensure that air flow to the cooling fan,
located at the rear side of the motor, is not blocked
Use a single power cable from the power source to the Single Phase Self-Priming Monoblock. Do
not use a power cable with large number of joints as this can result in a significant voltage drop
During installation, ensure the Single Phase Self-Priming Monoblock is not subject to shock loads
which can damage the pumpset parts
Use the services of a professional and trained mechanic with experience in erecting Single
Phase Self-Priming Monoblocks
Ensure proper safety during installation
Ensure that a level foundation is ready before erection of the Single Phase Self-Priming
Monoblock. Contact the dealer from where the Single Phase Self-Priming Monoblock was
purchased for the motor mounting details for preparing the foundation
