PUMP MAINTENANCE

WINTERIZATION

• The pump requires little to no maintenance other than reasonable care

and cleaning of the strainer basket on a regular basis. The pump is

equipped with a mechanical seal. This seal may eventually come loose

of a period of time, depending on running time and water quality. If water

continually leaks out, a new mechanical seal should be installed.

• See parts diagram for seal location.

• The pump is equipped with a rubber O-Ring that seals the strainer basket

lid. This O-Ring should be lubricated with water proof lubricant

(O-RING LUBE) to ensure proper seal and extend O-Ring life.

If O-Ring becomes cracked or worn (flattened) is will become necessary

to replace.

• In areas subject to freezing temperatures, it is recommended that the

pump be disconnected and stored indoors in a warm and dry location.

Remove the drain plugs from the pump housing and place them in the

strainer basket for storage.
