with liquids compatible with the pump component materials. Failure to follow this

warning can result in personal injury and/or property damage and will void the product

warranty.

3. Do not run the pump faster than maximum recommended speed.

4. Do not attempt to pump at pressures higher than rated.

5. Maximum liquid temperature is 140°.

6. Make certain that the power source conforms with the requirements of your
