Operation

Always

disconnect

the power source before
attempting to install, service,
relocate or maintain the pump.
NEVER touch the sump pump, pump
motor, water or discharge piping when
pump is connected to electrical power.
NEVER handle a pump or pump motor
with wet hands or when standing on
wet or damp surface or in water. Fatal
electrical shock could occur.

1. It is required that this unit be

plugged into a Ground Fault Circuit
Interrupter (GFCI) as shown in
Figure 5. Consult a local electrician
for installation and availability.

Risk

of

electrical

shock! This pump is supplied
with a grounding conductor
and grounding type attachment
plug. Use a grounded receptacle to reduce
the risk of fatal electrical shock. NEVER cut
off the round grounding prong. Cutting
the cord or plug will void the warranty and
make the pump inoperable.

2. Protect electrical cord from sharp

objects, hot sur fac es, oil, and
chemicals. Avoid kinking the cord.
Re place or repair damaged or worn
cords im me di ate ly. Use wire of
adequate size to minimize voltage
drop at the motor.

3. Do not handle a pump or pump

motor with wet hands or when
standing on a wet or damp surface,
or in water.

4. This pump is only for use on 120 Volt

(single-phase), 60 Hz, 15 amp service
and is equipped with a 3-conductor
cord and 3-prong, grounding type
plug. Insert the float switch cord plug
directly into a GFCI protected 120 volt
outlet. Do NOT use an extension cord.

5. Insert the pump power cord plug

directly into the back of the float switch
cord plug (See Figure 6).

6. Test operation of the system by

adding water to the inlet. The pump
will start automatically when the
water has filled the reservoir to a
depth of approximately 9 inches. The
pump will stop when the water depth
is approximately 4 inches. The pump
will cycle thereafter as required.

Do NOT operate the

pump unless it is

submerged in water. Dry running causes
pump failure. The motor is equipped
with an automatic reset thermal
protector.

Maintenance

Always

disconnect

the power source before
attempting to install, service,
relocate or maintain the pump.
NEVER touch sump pump, pump motor,
water or discharge piping when pump is
connected to electrical power. NEVER handle
a pump or pump motor with wet hands or
when standing on wet or damp surface or in
water. Fatal electrical shock could occur.

Risk

of

personal

injury! Wear safety glasses
at all times when performing
maintenance on this pump
system. Failure to follow this warning
could result in death or serious injury.

1. Let the pump cool for a minimum of

two hours before servicing because
the pump contains hot oil under
pressure and the motor is hot.

This

pump

contains

dielectric motor oil for
lubrication and motor heat
transfer. This oil can be
harmful to the environment. Check
state environmental laws before
disposing of this oil.

2. Disassembly of the motor prior to

expiration of warranty will void the
warranty. If repairs are required, see
troubleshooting chart.

3. Inlet should be kept clean and free

of all foreign objects and inspected
annually. A clogged inlet will damage
the pump.

4. Pump should be checked monthly for

proper operation.
