7. Power Supply: Pump is designed for 115V, 60Hz, operation and requires a minimum 15 amp individual branch
circuit. The pump is supplied with a 3-wire cord set with grounding-type plug. Do not modify cord or plug. Plug the
power into a 115V GFCI power outlet.
WARNING: Risk of electric shock. Can shock, burn or kill. Pump should always be electrically grounded to be a
suitable electrical ground such as a grounded water pipe or a properly grounded metallic race way, or ground wire
system. Do not cut off the round ground pin.
8. If the pump discharge line is exposed to outside
subfreezing atmosphere, a portion of line exposed
must be installed so any water remaining in the pipe
will drain to the outfall by gravity. Failure to do this can
cause water trapped in the discharge to freeze which
could result in damage to the pump.
9. After the piping and check valve have been installed,
the unit is ready for operation.
10. Check the pump operation by filling the sump with
water and observing pump operation through one
complete cycle.
CAUTION: Risk of flooding. Can cause personal injury
and/or proper damage. Failure to make this operational
check may lead to improper operation, premature failure,
and flooding.
OPERATION
WARNING: Risk of electrical shock. Can shock, burn or kill. Do not handle a pump or pump motor with wet hands or
when standing on a wet or damp surface, or in water.
WARNING: Risk of fire and explosion. Can cause severe injury, property damage or death. Do not use in explosive
atmospheres. Pump water only with this pump.
1. The shaft seal depends on water for lubrication. Do not operate the pump unless it is submerged in water as the
seal may be damaged if allowed to run dry.
2. The motor is equipped with an automatic reset thermal protector. If temperature is in the motor should rise unduly,
the switch will cut off all power before damage can be done to the motor. When the motor has cooled sufficiently,
the switch will reset automatically and restart the motor. If the protector trips repeatedly, the pump should be
removed and checked. Low voltage, long extension cords, clogged impeller, very low head or lift, or a plugged or
frozen discharge pipe, etc., could cause the protector to trip.
3. The pump will not remove all water. If operating a pump manually, and suddenly no water comes out of the
discharge hose, shut off the unit immediately. The water level is probably very low and the unit has broken prime.
WARNING: Risk of electric shock. Can shock, burn or kill. Before attempting to check why the unit has stopped
operating, disconnect power from the unit.
CARE AND CLEANING
CAUTION: Always use the handle to lift pump. Never use the power cord to lift the pump. To avoid skin burns, unplug
the pump and allow time for it to cool after periods of extended use.
