EasyPro Stainless Mag Drive 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 dis- charge and intake ports on all models.

Safety & Electrical Connections

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

2. Connect this product only to a 110 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. 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 dam- age. 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.

7. When installing a check valve assembly, thread in the assembly finger tight. Do not over-tighten as this could crack the housing and void the 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 get- ting power.

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

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

Service & Maintenance

1. Disconnect all power supplies before service.

2. It is highly recommended to place the pump in either an EasyPro skimmer or into an EasyPro pump protector.

3. Clean the intake screen when the flow is visibly reduced.

4. Clean the pump and impeller with clean fresh water.

5. When cleaning the pump and impeller, be careful not to loose the small plastic washers positioned at the top and bottom of the impeller. These washers are critical to the quiet and efficient operation of the pump.

6. Check inside the impeller housing for large debris or algae that could reduce the flow.

7. Clean the impeller housing using cotton swabs. Clean the outside of the impeller with a damp cloth and clean water.
