Installation / operation
Protect electrical cord from sharp objects, hot surfaces, oil, and
chemicals. Avoid kinking cord. Replace or repair damaged or
worn cords immediately.
Do not handle pump or pump motor with wet hands or when
standing on wet or damp surface, or in water.
Do not use this pump in a fish pond.
risk of electrical shock. Can burn or kill.
If your basement has water or moisture on floor, do not walk
on wet area until all power has been turned OFF. If shut-off
box is in basement, call electric company or hydro authority
to shut-off service to house, or call your local fire department
for instructions. Remove pump and repair or re place. Failure to
follow this warning can result in fatal electrical shock. Oil on the
pump or in the sump may indicate motor leakage and electrical
shock hazard. Turn OFF power and check pump for oil leakage
from impeller area. Replace pump if it leaks.
note: This unit is not designed for applications involving salt
water or brine! Use with salt water or brine will void warranty.
Pump water only with this pump.

InStallatIon
1. Install pumps in sump pit with minimum diameter of 12".
Sump depth should be 18". Construct sump pit of tile,
concrete, steel, or plastic. Check local codes for approved
materials.
2. Install pump in pit so that switch operating mechanism has
maximum possible clearance.
3. Pump should not be installed on clay, earth, or sand
surfaces. Clean sump pit of small stones and gravel which
could clog pump. Keep pump inlet screen clear.
note: Do not use ordinary pipe joint compound on plastic
pipe. Pipe joint compound can attack plastics.
4. Install discharge plumbing. Use rigid plastic pipe and wrap
threads with PTFE pipe thread sealant tape. Screw pipe into
pump hand tight +1 to 1-1⁄2 turns.
risk of flooding. If a flexible discharge hose is
used, make sure pump is secured in sump to prevent movement.
Failure to secure pump may allow pump movement, switch
interference, and prevent pump from starting or stopping.
5. To reduce motor noise and vibrations, a short length of
rubber hose (1-7⁄8" I.D., e.g. radiator hose) can be connected
into discharge line near pump using suitable clamps.
6. Install an in-line check valve to prevent flow backwards
through pump when pump shuts off.
7. Power Supply: Pump is designed for 115 V., 60 Hz.,
operation and requires a minimum 15 amp dedicated circuit.
Both pump and switch are supplied with 3-wire cord sets
with grounding-type plugs. For automatic operation, switch
plug is inserted directly into outlet and pump plug inserts
into opposite end of switch plug. For manual operation,
pump plug is inserted directly into outlet.
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 round ground pin.
8. If pump discharge line is exposed to outside sub-freezing
atmosphere, portion of line exposed must be installed so any
water remaining in pipe will drain to the outfall by gravity.
Failure to do this can cause water trapped in discharge to
freeze which could result in damage to pump.
9. After piping and check valve have been installed, unit is
ready for operation.
10. Check operation by filling sump with water and observing
pump operation through one complete cycle.
failure to make this operational check
may lead to improper operation, premature failure, and
flooding.
operatIon
risk of electric shock. Do not handle a pump
or pump motor with wet hands, or when standing on wet or
damp surface or in water.
1. Shaft seal depends on water for lubrication. Do not operate
pump unless it is submerged in water as seal may be
damaged if allowed to run dry.
2. Motor is equipped with automatic reset thermal protector. If
temperature in motor should rise unduly, switch will cut off
all power before damage can be done to motor. When motor
has cooled sufficiently, switch will reset automatically and
restart motor. If protector trips repeatedly, pump should be
removed and checked as to cause of difficulty. Low voltage,
long extension cords, clogged impeller, very low head or lift,
etc., could cause cycling.
3. Pump will not remove all water. If manually operated pump
is operating and suddenly no water comes out of discharge
hose, shut OFF unit immediately. Water level is probably
very low and unit has broken prime.
note: For continuous operation, water depth must be at least
2" (5 cm).
risk of electric shock. Before attempting to
check why unit has stopped operating, disconnect power from
unit. Do not handle pump with wet hands or when standing on
wet or damp surfaces, or in water.
note: No repair parts are available for these pumps.
