Safety Guidelines
General Information
Before Installation, read the following instructions carefully. Each
Liberty Pump product is individually factory tested to assure
proper performance. By closely following these instructions,
potential operating problems should be eliminated, providing
years of trouble-free service.
Safety Precautions
 Accidental contact with electrically live parts, items, fluid, or
water can cause serious injury or death.
 Always disconnect the pump from power source before
attempting to service the pump. Fatal electrical shock could
occur.
 The pump shall be plugged into a properly fused electrical
outlet with a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) that
conforms to current National Electric Code (NEC) and all
applicable local codes. All wiring must be performed by
qualified personnel.
 All electrical and safety practices shall be in accordance with
the National Electrical Code
®
, the Occupational Safety and
Health Administration, or applicable local codes and
ordinances.
 Pump shall be properly grounded using its supplied
grounding conductor. Do not bypass grounding wires or
remove ground prong from attachment plugs. Failure to
properly ground the pump system can cause all metal
portions of the pump and its surroundings to become
energized.
 Do not handle or unplug the pump with wet hands, when
standing on damp surface, or in water unless wearing
Personal Protective Equipment.
 Always wear dielectric rubber boots and other applicable
Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) when water is on the
floor and an energized pump system must be serviced, as
submerged electrical connections can energize the water. Do
not enter the water if the water level is higher than the PPE
protection or if the PPE is not watertight.
 Do not handle or unplug pump with wet hands, when
standing on a wet/damp surface, or in water. Fatal electrical
shock could occur.
 Do not lift or carry the pump by its power cord. This will
damage the power cord, and could expose the electrically live
wires inside the power cord.
 The electrical power supply shall be located within the length
limitations of the pump power cord, and for below grade
installations it shall be at least 4 ft (1.22 m) above floor level.
 Do not use this product in applications where human contact
with the pumped fluid is common (such as swimming pools,
fountains, marine areas, etc.).
 Protect the power and control cords from the environment.
Unprotected power and control (switch) cords can allow
water to wick through ends into pump or switch housings,
causing surroundings to become energized.
 Do not use an extension cord to power the product.
Extension cords can overload both the product and extension
cord supply wires. Overloaded wires will get very hot and can
catch on fire.
 For cord replacement: power cord must be of the same
length and type as originally installed on the Liberty Pumps
product. Use of incorrect cord may lead to exceeding the
electrical rating of the cord and could result in death, serious
injury, or other significant failure.
 Do not use to pump flammable or explosive fluids such as
gasoline, fuel oil, kerosene, etc. Do not use in flammable
and/or explosive atmosphere. Sparks could ignite flammable
liquids.
