INSTALLATION
Hazardous voltage. Can shock, burn or kill.
Do not lift pump by the power cord. See "Cord Lift Warning"
on Page 3.
NOTICE: Install the pump on a hard, level surface (cement,
asphalt, or inside a sump basin, etc.). Never place the pump
directly on earth, clay or gravel surfaces.
Piping
Piping must not be smaller than pump discharge.
When installed in a sewage system, the pipe must be capable
of handling semi-solids of at least 2" (51mm) in diameter.
The rate of flow in the discharge pipe must keep any solids
present in suspension in the fluid. To meet minimum flow
requirements (2 feet per second in the discharge line), size
the pipe as follows:

In a sewage system use a check valve (purchase separately)
in the discharge pipe that matches the discharge pipe size to
prevent backflow of liquid into sump basin. The check valve
should be a free flow valve that will easily pass solids. Be
sure check valve installation complies with local codes.
NOTICE: For best performance of check valve when
handling solids, do not install it with the discharge more than
45° above the horizontal. Do not install the check valve in a
vertical position as solids may settle in the valve and prevent
it from opening on startup.
Electrical
Hazardous voltage. Can shock, burn, or kill.
When installing, operating, or servicing this pump, follow the
safety instructions listed below.
1. DO NOT splice the electrical power cord.
2. DO NOT allow the electrical cord plug to be submerged.
3. DO NOT use extension cords. They are a fire hazard and
can reduce voltage sufficiently to prevent pumping and/or
damage motor.
4. DO NOT handle or service the pump while it is
connected to the power supply.
5. DO NOT remove the grounding prong from the plug or
modify the plug. To protect against electrical shock, the
power cord is a three-wire conductor and includes a
3-prong grounded plug. Plug the pump into a 3-wire,
grounded, grounding-type receptacle. Connect the pump
according to the NEC or CEC and local codes.
For automatic operation, plug or wire the pump into an
automatic float switch or duplex controller. The pump will run
continuously when plugged directly into an electrical outlet.

that apply.
Explosion hazard. Improper ventilation of
sewer gases can result in leakage of methane sewer gas,
and a possible explosion of fumes, resulting in severe injury
or death. Vent basin according to all local codes.
NOTICE: Proper ventilation is needed to prevent negative
basin pressure and to provide air for proper aerobic activity
within the basin.
The sewage basin should be located at the lowest place in the
basement or area to be drained. Floor drains from other areas
in the basement may be tiled into the basin. Drain tile around
a house foundation may also be tiled into the basin, effectively
removing water and relieving pressure from this area.
Basin covers are used to exclude refuse from the basin.
NOTICE: Read and understand this instruction manual
before your concrete floor is poured.
Installation Instructions. See Figure 1.
1. Dig the hole for the sewage basin and the sub-base. The
hole must be deep enough so the finished floor is flush
with the top of the basin. Refer to Figure 1, Page 3.
NOTICE: The sub-base should include 4" of sand or
gravel. The maximum diameter of crushed rock should be
1/2". The recommended maximum diameter of pea gravel
is 3/4".
2. Level the sub-base out, until it is smooth. Sharp rock can
damage the basin.
3. Install the basin on top of the sub-base.
4. Backfill around the basin with crushed rock, with a
maximum diameter of 1/2", or use pea gravel.
5. Slide the inlet coupling (purchase separately) up the inlet
pipe enough to allow positioning of the pipe against the
open end of the spud on the basin. Lubricate the coupling
with dish soap if necessary. With the pipe in position,
slide the coupling into place on the spud and tighten both
clamps securely.
NOTICE: The pipe should pitch down to the basin inlet
at 1/4" per foot. This will cause the water to run into the
basin.
6. Install the discharge pipe into the 2" FNPT discharge
flange.
7. Install the 2" vent pipe into the 2" FNPT threaded vent
flange. The vent pipe must go through the roof of the
building or it can be connected to an existing vent pipe.
The sewage basin must be vented.
sewer gases can result in leakage of methane sewer gas,
and a possible explosion of fumes, resulting in severe
injury or death. Vent basin according to all local codes.
NOTICE: Proper ventilation is also needed to prevent
negative basin pressure and to provide the necessary air
for proper aerobic activity within the basin.
8. Install the 2" check valve in the horizontal portion of the
discharge pipe. See Figure 1. Make certain the flow
indicating arrow points away from the pump. This check
valve will keep the water from running back into the basin
when the pump is not running.
