EasyPro Large Mag Drive Pond Pumps Operation Manual - Printable PDF Version

Thank you for purchasing the EasyPro Mag Drive pump. This pump is a magnetically driven water pump. It contains no oil, rotating shafts, shaft seals or bearings. This pump combines simplicity of design with the most energy efficient operation of any pump. All electrical components are encapsulated in epoxy. The impeller assembly consists of impeller blades attached to a magnet and is easily replaced should the need arise. There are threaded discharge and intake ports on all models.

Safety and Electrical Connections:

1. Always disconnect the electrical supply before handling, maintaining, repairing or installing any pond equipment.

2. Connect this product only to a 115 volt receptacle that is protected by a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI).

3. The pump must be fully submersed underwater at all times when operating.

4. Never let the pump run dry, as this can damage the impeller, over heat the pump and possibly burn out the pump.

5. Do not use this product in bathrooms or swimming pools.

6. It is highly recommended to place the pump in an EasyPro skimmer.

7. All electrical work must be performed by a qualified technician. Always follow the National Electrical Code (NEC) or the Canadian Electrical Code as well as all local, state and provincial codes. Code questions should be directed to your local electrical inspector. Failure to follow electrical codes and OSHA safety standards may result in personal injury or equipment damage. Failure to follow manufacturer’s installation instructions may result in electrical shock, fire hazard, personal injury or death, damaged equipment, provide unsatisfactory performance and may void manufacturer’s warranty.

8. When installing a check valve assembly, thread in the assembly finger tight. Do not over tighten as this could crack the housing and is not covered under warranty.

Troubleshooting:

If the pump fails to operate, please check the following before contacting EasyPro:
Note: always disconnect from electrical outlet before handling the pump.

1. Check the GFCI circuit breaker or try another GFCI electrical outlet to ensure the pump is getting power.

2. Check the tubing for kinks and obstructions. Check intake screen cover for blockage. Follow cleaning steps in the maintenance section if blockage is suspected.

3. If necessary, remove and clean the impeller assembly.

Service and Maintenance:

1. Disconnect from the power supply before service.

2. Clean the intake screen if clogged. Flow will be visibly reduced.

3. If the impeller needs to be serviced remove the intake screen by removing the four #2 Phillips screws from each foot and remove the screen.

4. Then remove the impeller housing or volute by removing the four #3 Phillips screws that hold on the volute and re- move the volute.

5. Clear the impeller of any debris and verify it spins freely.

6. If the impeller does not spin freely it may need to be replaced or the magnet may need to be cleaned. Remove the impeller assembly. Check for breakage or build-up of deposit on the magnet or impeller housing.

7. Clean the magnet and housing of deposits with non-abrasive cleaners. Then replace the impeller, volute and screen to return pump to service.
