    Pump Wiring

    I bought this pump a while ago and had it hooked up 110VAC. Done some reading and decided I needed to move it to 220VAC. I thought I still had the wiring instructions but can't seem to find them now. Google search results for the pump have not been fruitful. Anyone have one or can look at...

    New Owner
