Installation • Operation
NOTICE Thread the discharge pipe into the
pump body carefully to avoid stripping or
crossing threads.
B. If a flexible discharge hose is used, make sure
the pump is secured in the sump to prevent
movement. Do not use a flexible discharge pipe
in any permanent installation.
Risk of flooding . Failure to secure pump
may allow pump movement, switch interference
and prevent pump from starting or stopping.
The discharge piping should be as short as
possible to reduce pipe friction losses. Discharge
pipe diameter should be equal to or larger than
the discharge size of the pump. Smaller pipe
diameters will restrict the capacity of the pump
and reduce performance.
C. Secure the discharge line before starting
the pump.
To reduce motor noise and vibrations, a short
length of rubber hose (e.g. radiator hose) can be
connected into the discharge line near the pump
using suitable clamps.
If the pump discharge line is exposed to outside
sub-freezing atmosphere, the portion of the 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 any water trapped in
the discharge line to freeze which could result in
damage to pump.
6. Power Supply: The pump is designed for 115 V.,
60 Hz., operation and requires a minimum 15 amp
individual branch circuit. Both the pump and switch
are supplied with 3-wire cord sets with grounding-
type plugs. The switch plug is inserted directly
into the outlet and the pump plug inserts into the
opposite end of switch plug.
Risk of electric shock . Can shock, burn
or kill. The pump should always be electrically
grounded to a suitable electrical ground such as a
grounded water pipe or a properly grounded metallic
raceway, or ground wire system. Do not modify the
cord or plug or cut off the round ground pin .
7. After the piping and the check valve (if needed) have
been installed, the unit is ready for operation
8. Check the operation by filling the sump with
water and observing pump operation through one
complete cycle.
Risk of flooding . Failure to make this
operational check may lead to improper operation,
premature failure, and flooding.

Operation
Risk of electric shock . Can shock, burn or
kill. Before attempting to check why unit has stopped
operating, disconnect the power from the unit. Do not
handle the pump with wet hands or when standing on
wet or damp surfaces, or in water.
1. The shaft seal depends on water for lubrication
and cooling. 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 the temperature 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, unplug the pump and remove it;
check for cause of difficulty. Low voltage, extension
cords, clogged impeller, very low head or lift, etc.,
could cause cycling.
Risk of sudden starts. Can cause electrical
shock and personal injury. The pump motor is
equipped with automatic resetting thermal protector
and may restart unexpectedly.
3. The pump will not remove all water.
NOTICE For continuous operation, water depth must
be at least 5" (13 cm) to prevent motor overheating.
Automatic Float Switch - Installation
1. Install the pump following the previous instructions.
2. The automatic float switch is sealed and factory
adjusted for most home sumps. See Specifications for
the switch settings.
NOTICE Minimum recommended turn-off level
above pump base is 5" (13 cm).
3. Be sure the horizontal float switch clearance is
8" (20 cm). For best performance of pumps with
tethered switches, the sump diameter and sump
depth should be at least 12" (30 cm).
Risk of flooding . Can cause personal injury
and/or property damage. May lead to improper
operation or premature failure. If a flexible discharge
hose is used, the pump may move when the motor
starts. If the switch hits the side of the sump, the
switch may stick and prevent the pump from starting.
Make sure the pump is secured so it cannot move
around in the sump.
4. Plug the piggyback switch cord into a 115V AC
outlet. Then, plug the pump into the plug on the
piggyback switch cord.
Do not allow the cord to interfere with the float
control motion or to drape over the pump motor.
With electrician's tape or cable ties, secure the cord
to the discharge pipe for cord protection.
