Float Stop Adjustment

2.1) With the pump in the pit, measure the desired fl oat stop on/off positions as shown in Fig. 2.1. These two dimen-

sions will de ter mine the on/off levels of the pump. The spacing between the upper and lower stops will de ter mine
the amount of water removed from the pit.


Note:

It may be necessary to raise the fl oat rod guide to adjust the stops to the dimensions determined in Step 2.1.


The fl oat rod guide should NEVER be between the upper and lower stop.


2.2) Remove the pump from the pit and adjust the fl oat stops as necessary. Tighten all screws.

Note: If a brick, or similar material has been used to raise the pump in the pit, it will be necessary to account for the

thickness of the brick.
