Before installing this product, have the electrical circuit checked by an electrician to ensure proper

grounding. All electrical installations must conform to the National Electric Code and all local

codes.

• ELECTRICAL SHOCK ALERT.

Connect this product to a properly-grounded 115 volt circuit equipped with a Ground Fault Circuit

Interrupter (GFCI) device. Make sure the electrical supply circuit is equipped with fuses or circuit

breakers with a minimum capacity of 15 amps

• ELECTRICAL SHOCK ALERT.

Never use an extension cord.

• ELECTRICAL SHOCK ALERT.

These pumps are supplied with a 3-prong grounded plug to help protect you against the possibility

of electrical shock. DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES REMOVE THE GROUND PIN.

• ELECTRICAL SHOCK ALERT.

Do not remove or replace the power cord.

• ELECTRICAL SHOCK ALERT.

Protect electrical cord from sharp objects, hot surfaces, oil, and chemicals. Avoid kinking the cord.

requirements of your equipment.

• PRODUCT DAMAGE MAY RESULT

The continuous operating water temperature for this pump must not exceed 104°F (40°C).

• PRODUCT DAMAGE MAY RESULT

This pump is designed to pump water only. It has not been evaluated for pumping chemicals or

corrosive materials.

• PRODUCT DAMAGE MAY RESULT

Inspect the pump regularly for damage and perform routine maintenance as needed. Remove any

debris that may build up around the on/off operation of the float.

• PROPERTY DAMAGE MAY RESULT

This product requires a 3/16 in. vent hole to be drilled in the discharge pipe, level with the top of

the pump. The vent hole should be checked periodically for clogs. It is normal for water to come

out of this vent hole during pump operation.

• PROPERTY OR PRODUCT DAMAGE MAY RESULT

This pump is not designed for pumping effluent or sewage.

• PRODUCT DAMAGE MAY RESULT

PREPARATION

Estimated Installation Time: 20 minutes

Materials required for assembly: Sump basin, inlet piping, discharge piping (PVC, poly pipe or

galvanized steel), check valve, and 2-step PVC glue system (primer and sealer).

GENERAL PUMP INFORMATION

This pump is designed to be installed in a sump basin for removing clear drain water and will usually

pass small particles suspended in water. Heavy mud, sand, or pea gravel can clog the pump, which

can usually be cleaned out by back-ushing with a garden hose through the pump discharge.

A check valve must be installed in the discharge pipe to keep water from draining back into the sump

basin when it is not operating. The sump basin must be at least 18 in. deep and 12 in. in diameter.

NOTES: Before installing pump:

• Have the electrical circuit checked by an electrician to ensure proper grounding.

• Connect pump to a grounded circuit equipped with a ground fault circuit interruptor (GFCI) device.

• BE CERTAIN the pump power source is disconnected before installing or servicing this unit.

• Be sure the sump basin and piping are clear of sand, dirt and scale. Debris will clog pump and

void warranty.

• Failure to protect pump and piping from freezing could cause severe damage and will void the

warranty.

• Do not run pump dry.

basin for the oat to move freely. If the oat is

restricted, the pump will not operate.

3. Make sure your hands are dry and you are

not standing in water. Connect the pump to a

properly-grounded, GFCI electrical outlet.
