This instruction sheet provides you with the information required to safely own
and operate your product. Retain these instructions for future reference.
The product you have purchased is of the highest quality workmanship and
material, and has been engineered to give you long and reliable service. This
product has been carefully tested, inspected, and packaged to ensure safe
delivery and operation. Please examine your item(s) carefully to ensure that no
damage occurred during shipment. If damage has occurred, please contact the
place of purchase. They will assist you in replacement or repair, if required.
READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO
INSTALL, OPERATE, OR SERVICE YOUR PRODUCT. KNOW THE PRODUCT'S
APPLICATION, LIMITATIONS, AND POTENTIAL HAZARDS. PROTECT YOURSELF
AND OTHERS BY OBSERVING ALL SAFETY INFORMATION. FAILURE TO
COMPLY WITH THESE INSTRUCTIONS COULD RESULT IN PERSONAL INJURY
AND/OR PROPERTY DAMAGE! This product is not to be used by persons
(including children) whose physical, sensory or mental capacities are limited or
reduced, and/or lack experience or adequate knowledge, unless they are under
supervision or receive proper training from a tutor or person responsible for their
security. Children must not be left unattended with this product. Avoid using as
a toy.
SAFETY GUIDELINES
1. Ensure that unit is disconnected from power source before attempting to
service or remove any component.
2. Do not use to pump flammable or explosive fluids such as gasoline, fuel oil,
kerosene, etc. Do not use in explosive atmospheres. Pump should only be
used with liquids compatible with pump component materials.
3. Do not handle pump with wet hands or when standing on a wet or damp
surface or in water.
4. This pump is supplied with a grounding conductor and/or grounding-type
attachment plug. To reduce the risk of electric shock, be certain that it is
connected to a properly grounded grounding-type receptacle.
5. In any installation where property damage and/or personal injury might result from
an inoperative or leaking pump due to power outages, discharge line blockage,
or any other reason, a backup system(s) and/or alarm should be used.
6. Support pump and piping when assembling and when installed. Failure to do
so may cause piping to break, pump to fall, motor bearing failures, etc.
7. If pump is an oil-filled pump, the motor housing is filled with a dielectric
lubricant at the factory for optimum motor heat transfer and lifetime
lubrication of the bearings. Use of any other lubricant could cause damage
and void the warranty. This lubricant is non-toxic; however, if it escapes the
motor housing, it should be removed from the surface quickly by placing
newspapers or other absorbent material on the water surface to soak it up,
so aquatic life is undisturbed.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
1. Check the pump label for proper voltage required. Do not connect to voltage
other than that shown.
2. If pump is supplied with a 3-prong electrical plug, the third prong is to ground
the pump to prevent possible electrical shock hazard. DO NOT REMOVE the
third prong from the plug. A separate branch circuit is recommended. Do not
use an extension cord.
3. If the power cord is equipped with stripped lead wires, such as on 230 V models,
be sure that the wires are connected to a power source correctly. The green/
yellow wire is the ground, and the blue (or white) and brown (or black) are live.
4. If any failure occurs in the power cord, contact any authorized personnel or the
manufacturer.
5. Power cord is non-replaceable; this product does not allow replacement and
therefore product should be fully replaced.
CONSULT INSTRUCTION SHEET ILLUSTRATIONS FOR PROPER ASSEMBLY
AND DISASSEMBLY OF YOUR PUMP.
1. Place pump on solid surface in water at least 3/4" deep to begin pumping.
Pump should be totally submerged for proper cooling of the motor when
pump is operated for extended periods.

OPERATION
2. Connect garden hose to hose adaptor or 1" diameter pipe directly into
pump outlet.
3. Pump with screen will remove water to within 3/8". Pump without screen (it
will snap off by wedging a coin between the slots; see Figure 2) will remove
water to within 1/8".
4. If the surface is dirt or sand, place pump on flat surface such as a piece of
wood or metal to prevent it from being clogged.
5. Do not let the unit run dry. It is designed to be cooled by pumping fluid. You
may damage the seal and the motor may fail if the pump is allowed to run dry.
6. If the unit is going to be idle for a period of time, follow the cleaning
instructions outlined in the next section. Do not let the unit freeze in the
wintertime. This may cause cracking or distortion that may destroy the unit.
7. When using 3/4" garden hose adaptor performance will be reduced
approximately 15%. This pump does not deliver enough pressure to operate
lawn sprinklers properly.
8. If fused-type plug is used on 230 V units, a 5.0 amp fuse is recommended.
9. If using an aluminum body pump in an area with water having a high
mineral content (hard water) or if other metals (copper tubing, metal fountain
heads, etc.) are present in the pond or fountain, a condition called "galvanic
corrosion" may occur. The recommended solution to this situation is the use
of a sacrificial anode attached to the pump. This anode works on the same
principle as the anode found in hot water heaters and boat motors. Contact
your local distributor and ask for the model SA-1 by Little Giant.
MAINTENANCE
DISCONNECT THE PUMP FROM THE POWER SOURCE BEFORE SERVICING
OR REMOVING ANY COMPONENT!
1. The motor housing of the pump is completely sealed and requires no service.
Disassembly of the motor housing or alteration of the power cord voids all
warranty. The power cord on these units cannot be replaced. In case of
damage the whole unit must be replaced.
2. The motor is a continuous duty type sealed in oil with an automatic thermal
overload protector device.
3. The pump can run against a restricted discharge such as a fountain without
damage to the pump.
4. If the pump becomes clogged, snap the screen off and clean out the area.
5. If necessary, remove the six screws holding the volute base to the motor
housing and clean the volute.
6. If the impeller is removed, make sure that a spacing of .050" (1.27 mm) with
shaft pushed toward housing is maintained when reassembling (Figure 1).
7. When reassembling, remember to install the seal ring between the volute
base and the motor housing.
