Check local electrical and building codes before installation. The installation
must be in accordance with their regulations as well as the most recent National
Electrical Code (NEC).
To conform to the National Electrical Code all pumps must be wired with 14 AWG
or larger wire. For lengths to 250', 14 AWG wire is sufficient. For longer lengths,
consult a qualified electrician or the factory.
Connect or wire the pump to its own circuit with no other outlets or equipment
in the circuit line. Fuses and circuit breaker should be of ample capacity in the
electrical circuit (see table below).

OPERATION
TESTING PUMP OPERATION
1. This pump is equipped with an automatic switch. The pump must be plugged
into this switch for automatic operation.
2. When this pump is installed in a basin with a sealed cover, switch operation
cannot be observed. The sump cover usually has a spare hole that is plugged
with a rubber plug. Remove this plug to observe switch operation.
3. Plug the power cord into a grounded receptacle with voltage consistent with
pump voltage as indicated on pump nameplate.
4. Run water into basin until pump starts.
5. Be sure gate valve in discharge line is open.
6. Allow pump to operate through several on-off cycles.

MAINTENANCE
If pump does not operate properly, consult the Troubleshooting table. If trouble
cannot be located with these steps shown, consult your pump dealer or take pump
to a Red Lion authorized service center.
WARNING: Before working on the pump or switch, unplug the pump power cord,
and remove the fuse or shut off the circuit breaker.
CLEANING IMPELLER AND VOLUTE
1. Remove 4 bolts that hold motor housing to volute.
2. Remove volute and clean impeller and volute passage. Do not use strong
solvents on impeller.
3. Be sure impeller turns freely after cleaning.
4. CAUTION: DO NOT REMOVE IMPELLER. REMOVAL OF IMPELLER
REQUIRES SPECIAL TOOLS AND IS TO BE DONE ONLY BY AN
AUTHORIZED SERVICE CENTER.
DO NOT REMOVE MOTOR HOUSING COVER. WARRANTY IS VOID IF
MOTOR HOUSING COVER, IMPELLER OR SEALS HAVE BEEN REMOVED.
ANY REPAIR ON MOTOR MUST BE DONE BY AN AUTHORIZED RED LION
SERVICE CENTER.

The pre-assembled unit (Figure 3) is furnished fully assembled and ready for
installation. Remove check valve or ball/check valve from discharge pipe and
re-install as shown on typical installation (Figure 4). CAUTION: For best perfor-
mance of check valves when handling solids, install in a horizontal position or at
an angle of not more than 45°. Do not install check valve in a vertical position,
as solids may settle in valve and prevent opening on start-up. Remove the cord
from the vent hole and install the vent pipe (see Figure 4 to complete typical
installation).
To test the unit, plug the unit in and run water into the basin until the unit
switches on. If the unit does not operate, refer to the troubleshooting information
in the instructions for the pump.
