GROUNDING
To eliminate electrostatic build-up by the liquid be-
ing pumped, the unit must be grounded by attach-
ing the ground wire assembly to a ground rod. In-
stall the ground rod in accordance with the Nation-
al Electrical Code and all local codes. Be sure the
clamp or fastener has made a tight electrical con-
nection with the rod.
Inspect and test the ground wire assembly
for conductivity. Replace a broken or
frayed wire before resuming operation.
