SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
This equipment should be installed and serviced by technically qualified personnel who are familiar with
the correct selection and use of appropriate tools, equipment, and procedures. Failure to comply with
national and local electrical and plumbing codes and within Red Lion recommendations may result in elec-
trical shock or fire hazard, unsatisfactory performance, or equipment failure.
Know the product's application, limitations, and potential hazards. Read and follow instructions carefully to
avoid injury and property damage. Do not disassemble or repair unit unless described in this manual.
Refer to product data plate(s) for additional precautions, operating instructions, and specifications.
Failure to follow installation or operation procedures and all applicable codes may result in the following
hazards:
Risk of death, personal injury, or property damage due to explosion,
fire, or electric shock.
• Do not use to pump flammable, combustible, or explosive fluids such as gasoline, fuel oil, kerosene, etc.
• Do not use in explosive atmospheres or hazardous locations as classified by the NEC, ANSI/NFPA70.
• Do not handle a pump or pump motor with wet hands or when standing on a wet or damp surface or in water
until the unit is unplugged or electrically disconnected.
High voltages and system pressure capable of causing severe injury or
death are present in this unit.
• To reduce risk of electrical shock, disconnect power before working on or around the system.
• Connect the drill to a circuit equipped with a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) device if required by code.
• Use three-prong grounded cord or double insulated drill. Do not remove the third prong from the plug. The third
prong is to ground the pump to help prevent possible electric shock hazard.
• Check electrical outlets with a circuit analyzer to ensure power, neutral, and ground wires are properly con-
nected. If not, a qualified, licensed electrician should correct the problem.
• Pump should only be used with liquids compatible with pump component materials.
Risk of bodily injury, electric shock, or equipment damage.
• This equipment must not be used by children or persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental abilities, or
lacking in experience and expertise, unless supervised or instructed. Children may not use the equipment, nor
may they play with the unit or in the immediate vicinity.
• Do not run the pump dry. If run dry, the surface temperature of the pump will rise to a high temperature that
could cause skin burns if touched, and will cause serious damage to the pump.
• Pumping thick fluid will affect performance.
• Follow safety precautions recommended by the drill manufacturer.
• Keep safety labels clean and in good condition.
• Wear safety glasses while using this pump.
