MAINTENANCE

Disconnect power cord from the solar

pump before performing maintenance.

Never lift the pump by the power cord.

The only serviceable item is the

impellor set.

The motor unit of the pump is

encapsulated with epoxy resin and does

not need lubrication.

All Aquapro submersible pumps are water

cooled; if pump becomes restricted it

will overheat and could cause permanent

damage. Ensure pump does not become

blockedorrestricted.

Thepowercordcannotbereplaced.If

the cord is damaged, the pump must be

discarded.

The impellor set is a wearing consumable

part. Regular inspections, cleaning, and

maintenance of impellor is necessary to

ensure longer impellor life.

Iftheimpellorsetbecomeswornor

from your dealer or special orders).

Failure to do so may cause serious

damage to pump.

1. Disconnectthepowercordfrom

the solar pump before performing
