IMPORTANT SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS
When installing and using this electrical equipment,
basic safety precautions should always be followed,
including the following:
READ AND FOLLOW
ALL INSTRUCTIONS
To reduce the risk of injury, do not
permit children to use this product unless they are
closely supervised at all times.
Risk of Electric Shock. Connect only
to a properly-grounded, grounding type receptacle.
The pump requires 115 volt, single phase current.
The pump is protected by a ground-fault circuit
interrupter (GFCI) built into the plug. Do not modify
the cord, plug, or GFCI.
Do not bury cord. Locate cord to minimize abuse
from lawn mowers, hedge trimmers, and other
equipment.
To reduce the risk of electric shock,
replace damaged cord immediately.
To reduce the risk of electric shock, do
not use an extension cord to connect the unit to the
electrical supply; provide a properly located outlet.
SAVE THESE
INSTRUCTIONS
The pump motor is equipped with an automati-
cally resetting thermal protector and may restart unexpectedly.
DO NOT plug in the pump while standing in water or on a wet
or damp surface.
DO NOT use in water where fish are present (oil in motor can
kill fish).
DO NOT pick up the pump by the power cord.
Protect the electrical cord from sharp objects, hot surfaces, oil,
and chemicals. Avoid kinking the cord.
Unplug the pump before servicing it or attempting to clean it.
Secure the discharge hose before starting the pump. An unse-
cured discharge hose may whip, which can cause personal
injury and property damage.
Keep the pump, base, and inlet screen free of debris and for-
eign objects.

DESCRIPTION
The submersible pump is designed for water removal from pool
covers in home swimming pool applications. Unit is constructed
of hi-impact corrosion resistant plastic. Screened inlet and base
prevent large solids from entering pump and protect pool cover.

INSTALLATION
Hazardous voltage. Can shock, burn or cause
death. Do not use power cord to lift motor. Always use handle.
1. Pump should always stand upright on base when operating.
Do not suspend pump by means of discharge hose or
power cord. Keep pump inlet screen clear.
2. To install a garden hose, first install adapter provided with
pump.
NOTICE: To keep friction as low as possible, hose must be
5/8" or larger. Keep hose as short as possible.
3. If, in your application, backflow is a problem when the
pump stops, prevent it by installing a 1" NPT check valve
in the pump discharge.
4. Power Supply: Pump is designed for 115V., 60 HZ.
operation and requires an individual branch circuit of
15 amperes or more capacity. It is supplied with a 3-wire
cord set with grounding-type, GFCI protected plug for use
in a 3-wire, grounded outlet. For safety, pump should
always be electrically grounded to a suitable electrical
ground such as a grounded water pipe or a properly
grounded metallic raceway or ground wire system. Do not
cut off the round grounding prong.
Risk of sudden starts. Can result in an
electrical shock or the pinching of hands or tools. The
pump motor is equipped with automatic resetting thermal
protector and may restart unexpectedly. Protector tripping is
indication of motor overloading as a result of operating
pump at high pressure, excessively high or low voltage,
inadequate wiring, incorrect motor connections, or a defec-
tive motor or pump.
