TIPS FOR EASY INSTALLATION
1. After reading instructions, check to
make sure installation does not
exceed a maximum of 15 feet of
vertical lift.
2. Make sure pump is level. No part of
the pump base should be more
than 1/8” off of level plane.
3. Use soapy water on unit when
performing cleaning maintenance.
(Refer to Maintenance guidelines.)
4. For optimum performance, drain
and discharge lines should have a
continuous downward slope. Test
operation of pump to make sure
lines have enough downward slope
for efficient operation.
5. Avoid overtightening of check valve
after cleaning. (Refer to
Maintenance gudelines.)
6. Use constant voltage power source.
Do not plug into a device that runs
intermittently.
7. Locate model number and date
code on pump and take note of
them.
8. To assure proper performance, the
highest point of discharge line
should be higher than 5’ off the
floor.
9. Clean any debris in the pump
reservoir if necessary.
10. Do not handle the pump until you
have disconnected it from the
power source. Follow all guidelines
