OWNER'S MANUAL
5.5-ASPA Series Sump Pumps
This submersible pump is for use in basins and is suitable for pumping clear
water with up to 1/8-inch (3.18 mm) spherical semi-solids. Do not use the pump
in applications where effluent gray water or sewage or any other debris (gravel,
sand, floating debris, etc.), abrasives, or corrosives are present. Discharge
height and/or piping restrictions will reduce the pump's flow rate. This pump
does not deliver enough pressure to operate lawn sprinklers properly. However,
the pump can run against a restricted discharge without damage to the pump.
The pump comes with a 1 ½" female NPT pipe thread discharge and a ¾" GHT
garden hose adapter.
The pump motor is equipped with an automatic resetting thermal protector
and may restart unexpectedly. Protector tripping is an indication of motor over-
loading/overheating, which can be caused by application issues such as an
obstructed pump impeller, switch stuck in the ON position, pump running dry,
pump air-locked, pump short cycling, excessively high or low voltage supply, or possibly a pump, motor,
bearings or seal that have reached the end of their useful life.
This product is covered by a Limited Warranty for a period of 3 years from the date of original purchase by
the consumer. For complete warranty information, refer to www.LittleGiant.com.
