Burcam 300402 SUMP BUDDY SUBM. BACK UP MUNICIPAL WATER SUMP PUMP - Manual (Page 4)

4
Close municipal water supply. Run a supply line (not less than 1/2”, 3/4” recommended) to the
ideal position for an easy operation of the automatic control valve of the SUMP BUDDY.
Install a ball valve near the pump area, to close water supply for servicing at a later date.
Flush this new line, before next step, to remove any debris which may obstruct the water flow in
your SUMP BUDDY.
Screw the automatic control valve to the supply line.
Install the 90 0 galvanized bracket to the automatic control valve by using the two screws
supplied.
Install the stainless steel rod by simply
screwing the two parts together. Using the
large coupling, secure the rod connection.
The top screw is to secure the top part and
the bottom screw is to secure the bottom part
of the rod.
The next step is to install the float by simply
passing the rod throught the float opening. Then
use the small couplings to secure the float to the
rod by simply screwing the unit to the rod.
The float should be set at least 2” higher than
the conventional electrical pump setting, so that
the back-up pump will not start prior to the main
electrical pump. To complete the float installa-
tion, simply insert the stainless steel rod
throught the 90
0 bracket, then install a rubber
grommet below the control valve level, then
insert the shaft throught the control valve and
insert the second grommet on the top, then set
the grommet adjustement to the proper location
to properly adjust the setting.
Fix the vacuum breaker to the automatic
control valve and screw the connecting hose.
Adjust the length of the connecting hose and fix it to the sump buddy with a clamp.
You are now ready to test your SUMP BUDDY. Restart municipal water supply, and confirm that
there are no leaks in supply line. Try the automatic control valve by drawing up the lever. Water
will go through the SUMP BUDDY. Push down the lever to shut off water flow.
Fill the sump pit with water. Verify the action of the automatic control valve and the level of water
to start your SUMP BUDDY, then repeat the operation many times.
Turn on electrical power of the conventionnal sump pump and verify the entire system.
