STOW SS-233 SUBMERSIBLE PUMP GENERAL INFORMATION  
This pump must always be positioned on a platform in an upright  
Introduction  
position. NEVER operate the pump by a suspended rope. To  
prevent large solids from entering the pump, install a wire mesh  
screen or similar barrier around the pump.  
The STOW Model SS-233 submersible pumps is designed to  
pump water and is used for the draining (de-watering) of flooded  
rooms, drains and fill tanks, power fountains and waterfalls  
swimming pool covers, and flat roofs.  
If the pump was used to pump water containing mud, silt, use  
clean water to flush out the pump after each use.  
A plastic impeller is attached to the output shaft of a 1/2 HP  
electric motor which provides adequate power for general  
purpose pumping.This submersible pump is supplied complete  
with an electric power cable, and a discharge port located at the  
top of the pump which accepts a 2-inch hose.  
DO NOT allow the pump to run dry, as this will damage the  
pump. During maintenance, dry running is permissible but only  
for a few seconds.  
NEVER lift the pump by its electrical power cord. ALWAYS lift  
the pump by its carrying handle or attached a rope to carrying  
handle.  
This pump is ideal for portability because of its light weight and  
carrying handle. In addition this pump will pump dry to 1 inch.  
Built in overload protection protect the electric motor from  
overheating.  
A fully submerged pump in liquid will not freeze, unless the liquid  
freezes. DO NOT allow a partially submerged pump to freeze.  
The expansion of water freezing in the volute may crack the  
pump, causing expensive repairs. If there is any danger of the  
pump being subjected to freezing temperatures, Lift the pump  
from water and allow it to drain thoroughly.  
The pump when in use, should be installed as free standing  
(upright position) on its strainer base. A 2-inch discharge hose  
(not supplied) should be connected to the discharge port located  
on top of the pump.The discharge hose should be adequately  
supported to avoid stress on the pump.  
If the pump jams or the pump rotor locks for any reason,  
disconnect the pump from the power source immediately.  
Allowing the pump motor to cycle ON and OFF under an overload  
condition can burn out the motor.  
For maximum water flow, the discharge hose should be kept as  
short as possible, and with minimum elevation above the pump.  
Remember as the length and/or height of the discharge hose is  
increased, the flow of water will be reduced. Also any reduction  
in the hose size, and any fittings such as valves or outlet nozzles,  
will restrict the water flow.  
When replacement of nuts and bolts is required, use only  
recommended parts as referenced in the parts section of this  
manual.This pump uses metric threads. DO NOT use english  
measurement threads.  
To avoid back-siphonage when the pump is switched off, ensure  
that the end of the discharge hose is installed above the water  
level at the final discharge point.  
When the pump is switched off, the water remaining in the hose  
will run back through the pump.This can be avoided by placing  
a non-return valve in the hose nearest the pump.  
NEVER use this submersible pump to pump flammable liquids  
or operate in a explosive or flammable environment.  
Avoid using this pump in conditions where mud, grit, silt or other  
debris are present.These conditions could cause blockage and  
cause excessive pump wear.  
DO NOT install the pump directly into an area where there is a  
heavy build-up of mud, grit, silt or debris. If this condition is present,  
install the pump on a platform before operating.
