PRE-OPERATION NOTES

The warranty will be void if the pump has not been operated and maintained in the manner prescribed in this Operator's Manual.

In order for the pump to perform at its optimum capabilities, the operator of the unit must read this manual thoroughly before using this unit. This Operator's Manual contains important product operation procedures, safety precautions, maintenance and troubleshooting tips as well as other advisories. Please keep this manual nearby when operating the pump as a reference should any questions arise.

This submersible pump is ONLY for use in water. DO NOT use in trashwater. Any other uses or applications is strictly prohibited. DO NOT start this unit unless it is submerged in water. DO NOT submerge this pump in any other liquid but water.

All jobsites are different. Please ensure that when installing this pump in a jobsite, all local bylaws and codes are followed.

Safety Precautions

1. READ AND UNDERSTAND OPERATOR'S MANUAL PRIOR TO USE OF SUBMERSIBLE PUMP.

2. DO NOT USE ELECTRICAL CABLE TO CARRY, LIFT OR OTHERWISE MOVE PUMP. This will damage the cable, which can cause electrical shocks, electrical short circuit, pump failure, personal injury and other accidents.

Always attach rope, chain or other lines to pump HANDLE to secure, raise, or move pump.

3. Make certain that the power source conforms to the requirements of your equipment.

NEVER REPLACE THE PLUG TO AN ALTERNATIVE!

4. DO NOT plug pump into any NON-GROUNDED electrical outlet.

5. DO NOT connect the pump to any power source unless the unit is operating in water.

NEVER RUN THE PUMP DRY!

6. DO NOT perform any repairs or maintenance procedures on pump unless it has been disconnected from power source.

7. Drain all liquids from the pump before servicing any component.

8. DO NOT DROP PUMP. This will damage the internal components of the pump causing it to malfunction.

9. DO NOT continue operating the pump if ANY of the following conditions are observed: a. Excessive vibration b. Unusual odor or noise

Turn pump OFF immediately if any of the above conditions appear and contact your local dealer.

10. Check hoses for weak or worn condition before each use, and making certain that all connections are secure.

11. Periodically inspect pump and system components. Perform routine maintenance as required. If the pump is located in an area subject to freezing temperatures, the pump and hoses should be drained when not in operation. See "Winterizing Your Pump" section for further details.

12. Do not come into contact with the pump once it has been started. Pump may become hot under normal use. Allow sufficient time for the pump to cool off before coming into contact with the unit.

Setting Up The Wp300

1. Wrap threaded sections of included nipple with Teflon tape.

2. Screw prepared nipple onto the WP300 Submersible Pump.

DO NOT overtighten coupling onto the outlet as this may lead to damaging the pumps structural integrity.

3. Connect 2" discharge hose to pump.

DO NOT use restricting-type valves at the discharge as this will restrict the capacity of the pump.

DO NOT use hose with signs of damage or wear.

4. Verify that the discharge hose will run as straight as possible.

Any excessive bending in the hose will prevent water flow. This prevents sufficient lift, and will cause the pump to run under its optimum capacity.

Any crimps, loops and excessive extended sections on the hose will also create air pockets in the hose, thereby forcing the discharged liquid back into the pump. This will damage the pump and can result in electrical short, leakage and/or other hazards to the operator and jobsite.

DO NOT use extension cords with this product.
