MOTORS
Single Phase: NEMA design L or M with class B insulation.
Suitable for operation in liquids with a maximum temperature
of 40°C (104°F).
Three Phase: NEMA design B with Class F insulation.
Suitable for operation in liquids with a maximum temperature
of 60°C (140°F).
Check rotation before installing pump in sump. Cutter should
rotate counterclockwise when viewed from the bottom (suc-
tion side) of pump. If not, reverse any two leads to motor to
reverse direction of rotation.
All Motors: See motor nameplate for voltage, Hertz, phase,
and full load current. Make sure that power supply is the cor-
rect voltage and adequate to start and run pump. To be sure
that wiring is correct, test run pump briefly before installing
in sump. Oil-filled seal plate will protect shaft seals for a
brief dry run which can save much troubleshooting time later
if there is a problem with the installation. See Table I, Page
2, for electrical data summary.

OPERATION
area can cause loss of fingers.
Lubrication: The motor bearings of oil filled models are
lubricated by oil in the motor. The motor bearings of air-filled
models are of the sealed type. The motor is equipped with
two independent shaft seals with an oil filled reservoir
between them for seal lubrication.
NOTICE: Failure to monitor the seal condition voids warran-
ty. Motors damaged by flooding due to seal or O-Ring failure
are not covered under warranty.
Grinder Assembly: The grinder unit consists of a cutter
rotating inside a stationary cutter ring. Persistent jamming
and clogging of the pump indicates dull or worn grinder
parts. If the cutter ring is dull, reverse it to renew the cutting
edges. If the cutter ring is worn from abrasives, replace it.
NOTICE: Normal domestic sewage will cause very little
dulling or wear of the grinder parts. However, pumping abra-
sives (such as fine sand) or fabrics (such as articles of
clothing) will greatly increase wear and tear on the grinder
and may make it necessary to replace the grinder assembly
frequently.
MAINTENANCE
The Key numbers given in these procedures refer to the
exploded views. See page 8.
Pump Removal:
1. After the basin cover is removed and the necessary dis-
charge piping disconnected, lift the pump from the
basin.
