Servicing the Pump:

1. Pump must never be allowed to run dry, or be plugged with debris.

2. Make sure that clean water is circulating through the pump. Make sure the pump is properly installed, that the pump is submerged, not in open air.

3. AP series pumps should not be used outside as this series pump would not have a grounded cord.

4. Use only 115 Volt AC 60 Cycle electrical current unless marked otherwise.

5. Priming the pump: When using the pump for the first time be sure to turn it on and off several times to be sure that all the air is out of the discharge line.

6. Whenever a pump is used outside be sure that a filter screen is installed in front of the intake of the pump. The screen, and intake of the pump should be inspected and cleaned regularly to prevent foreign matter such as leaves, stones, etc. from entering the pump housing and blocking the impeller and restricting the flow.

7. When freezing may occur, the pump must be removed from the water prior to freezing as frozen water will expand and break the pump, or pump components.

8. This pump does not use oil to operate. Instead, a magnetically driven motor pushes the water through the housing. Attention is needed to reduce any chemical buildup or debris that may form on the impeller and rotor. Follow the servicing steps when cleaning the pump.

9. Has the water level dropped below the top of the impeller? Without water the pump will overheat and the motor will burn out.

10. Electrical Power-check it to be sure you have electric power, that the circuit breaker or fuse has not blown.

11. Disconnect the electrical plug. Check the electrical cord for any cuts or breaks.

12. Check the suction and discharge lines for breaks or blockage.

13. Check the suction screen, it could be clogged with debris or algae.

14. Check the impeller for any foreign matter.

15. You may regularly rinse the pump and pump parts in a 50-50 mixture of warm water and household vinegar. If there is any build up of grime or calcium, it may require a light brushing. Keep your pump clean at all times.

CAUTION: Always disconnect the pump from the power source before cleaning and servicing.
