SERVICING
Always disconnect power to the UltraFlow
communication cable before servicing the pump. Failure to do so could result in death or serious injury to service
people, users or others due to electric shock. Read all servicing instructions before working on the pump.
open the strainer pot if pump fails to prime or if pump has been operating without water in the strainer pot. Pumps operated in
these circumstances may experience a build up of vapor pressure and may contain scalding hot water. Opening the pump may
cause serious personal injury. In order to avoid the possibility of personal injury, make sure the suction and discharge valves are
open and strainer pot temperature is cool to touch, then open with extreme caution.
Be sure not to scratch or mar the polished shaft seal faces; seal will leak if faces are damaged. The polished and lapped faces
of the seal could be damaged if not handled with care.
