up and down, ensuring free movement without interference from any
obstructions inside the sump or lid.
10. Install the Fit Controller (see Figure 3) by using the anchors provided.
For best cooling, install wall mount conguration.  The controller
shouldbelocatedatleast3'(1m)abovethesump.
11. Connect the leads from the controller to the battery terminals.
Positive (+) lead to positive terminal and black neg. (-) lead to
negative battery terminal.
CAUTION
Correct battery hook-up is essential for operation
of the system. Use wing nuts supplied with battery and eyelet
connectorsonbatterywireleads.Thepositiveterminalisthelarger
stud,3/8"(10mm)diameter.Thesmallerstud,5/16"(8mm)diameter
is the negative terminal.  The stud sizes on the AGM battery are
identical.Applygreasetotheterminalstohelppreventcorrosion.
12. Connectthepump'splugintothecontrollerterminal.
13. Plugthecontrollerintothe115Vwalloutlet.Theprimarysumppump
and the controller should be on separate circuits.
14. Reconnect power to the primary sump pump.

 1. ThepreferredmethodofinstallationforbackuppumpsisshowninFigure1.
The installation kit includes the necessary ttings. Includes the parts
needed to install as in Figure 1. Acheck valveis incorporatedin the
discharge of the backup pump.
  NOTE:Donotinstallinsmallspaceswherethecontrollerwillnotbe
properly cooled.
2. Remove all parts from the shipping carton, and make sure all parts are
included. Refer to the parts list on page 3.
 3. Selectalocationforthebatteryandthecontroller.Thecontrollermust
bewithin8'(2.4m)ofa115Vwalloutletandwithin6'(1.8m)ofpumpand
basin. Connect to a separate circuit from the primary pump.
4. If the primary pump is installed, disconnect power.
  NOTE:Dischargepipingmustbe1-1/2"SCH40PVC
5. Remove the discharge pipe from the pump and place it aside.
 6. SolventweldtheDCPumpdischargereducerttingtotheteeasshown
in Figure 1. Ensure the O-ring is properly located on the pump discharge.
SlidetheDCpumpintothetting,andtightenthehoseclamp.
  NOTE:Thepumpmustbepushedallthewayintothettingtoprevent
thettingfromleaking.
7. Determine the position of the DC pump and measure for discharge
piping.Usethatmeasurementtocutthedischargepipe.Solventweld
that piece to the tee. Measure, cut and solvent weld any remaining
discharge piping above the tee.
  NOTE:Checkoatoperationstoensurethehoseclampscrewswillnot
interferewiththeoatoperationoftheprimarypump.
 8. AssembletheoperationoatassemblyperFigure3.Installoatswitches
as seen in Figure 1.
 9. Install the operational oatswitch bracket above the"on" level ofthe
primary pump using the clamp provided. Make certain the clamp is tight
onthepipetoavoidslippage.Ensurethatthe"off"leveloftheoatis1"
(2.5 cm) minimum above the outlet of the DC backup pump. Position the
pumpsinthesumpandmoveoatupanddown,ensuringfreemovement
withoutinterferencefromanyobstructionsinsidethesumporlid.The
oatswitchcanbemovedonthedischargepipe,ortherubberstopscan
beadjustedasnecessary.Cutextraoatrodlengthbelowloweroat
stoptopreventdebrisfrominterferingwithoat operation. Install the
high water switch with the "on" level set at least 1" (2.5 cm) above the "on"
leveloftheoperationaloatusingthesuppliedclamp.Movetheswitch
INITIAL START-UP AND OPERATION
 1. Testtheinstallationforleaksbyrunningwaterintothesump,allowing
for normal operation of the primary pump.
 2. Checkthecontroller.TheSystemreadylightwillbegreenwhenthe
unitispluggedintothe115Vwalloutlet.Thebatterywillindicateits
conditionwhenthecontrollerhasDCpower.Whentheunitisrst
pluggedin,alllightswillashandalarmwillsoundtoverifyalllights
and the alarm work. Note that the charger may not begin charging
for several minutes.
3. Disconnect the primary pump from its power source before touching
any component in the sump pit.
4. Lift theoperationalfloatswitch.AfteracouplesecondstheDCbackup
pump will run, and the alarm will sound after about 1 second. Lower
the operational float switch after the alarm sounds. Takecarethat
the intake of the DC pump is set above the inlet of the primary pump.
Press silence for 3 seconds to clear out the alarm and reset the unit.
CAUTION
Continuous dry running may cause overheating and
damage the pump seals. Upon release of the float switch, the pump
will shut off. Be sure there are no obstructions around the float.
5. Checkinstallationofthehighwaterswitch.Liftthehighwateroat.
Thealarm will sound,and thelight willalert ofhigh water.If the
operationaloatisdown,thepumpwillrununtiltheoatlowersand
the pump is no longer pumping water, or the run timer expires a foat
faultLEDwillbelit.Iftheoperationaloatisupduringhighwater,
unitwillalarmandhighwateroatlightwillilluminate.Thepumpwill
turnoffoncewaterispumpedlowerthantheoperationaloat.
 6. Completethenaltestingofyourinstallationbyensuringtheprimary
pumpisstilldisconnectedfrompower.Then,unplugthetcontroller
from the 115 V wall outlet. Run water into the sump until the DC
backuppumpisactivatedbytheoperationaloatswitch.Checkall
connections for leaks.
7. PushtheSilencebuttonwhenthepumpisrunning.Thiswillsilence
thealarm.Thepumpwillcontinuetorununtiltheoperationaloatis
deactivated.
 8. ReconnectthecontrollerandtheprimarypumptotheACwalloutlets.
Theprimarypumpmaycomeon,lowerthewaterlevelinthesump
back to its normal operating level, and shut off. Both primary and
backup systems are now ready for use. Hold silence button for several
seconds to reset the unit.
9. Thebatteryholdsilencebuttonforseveralsecondstoresettheunit.
LEDwillbeyellowduringnormalchargingoperation.Seepage6for
a description of controller functions.
  NOTE:Whenrunningthepumps,itisnormalforastreamofwaterto
sprayoutofthe1/8"(3mm)airreliefhole.
