Before installation, read the following instructions carefully. Each Liberty pump is individually factory tested to ensure
proper performance. Closely following these instructions will eliminate potential operating problems, assuring years of
trouble-free service.
 Risk of electric shock. Always disconnect the macerator from the power source before handling or making
adjustments.
 These pumps are not to be installed in locations classified as hazardous in accordance with the National Electric
Code, ANSI/NFPA 70.

Qualified personnel should only make the electrical connections and wiring for a pump installation.
 This pump is supplied with a grounding-type attachment plug. To reduce the risk of electric shock, be certain that it is
connected to a properly grounded, grounding-type receptacle.
 This product must be connected to a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) receptacle or circuit breaker.
 Do not bypass grounding wires or remove ground prong from attachment plugs.
 Do not use an extension cord.

The installation must be in accordance with the National Electric Code and all applicable local codes and ordinances.

The Macerator has a large opening to accept the discharge hub of a rear discharge toilet. DO NOT place hand or
other objects into this opening even if unit is unplugged. The macerator has razor sharp cutters within this opening.

Decorative covers must be installed for operation, a safety device is integrated into the covers to prevent unintended
operation. The unit may start when energized the first time.
 Explosion hazard during installation. PVC cleaners, primers, and cements can release explosive vapors. These
heavier than air vapors can accumulate in the tank. The heat of soldering or sweating copper or other metal pipe can
ignite these vapors causing a violent explosion. If the unit is to be connected to copper discharge or vent piping, all
solvent welded PVC joints must be allowed to cure a minimum of 24 hours. The access cover must be removed to
allow the macerator to be thoroughly ventilated prior to sweating copper pipe near the unit.

Do not use macerator in water over 104  F.

Do not lift macerator by the power cord.

Do not use an air admittance valve or a mechanical spring-
loaded venting device.
