Installation
INSTALLATION
1. Install pumps in sump pit with minimum diameter of 14".
Sump depth should be 18". Construct sump pit of tile,
concrete, steel, or plastic. Check local codes for approved
materials.
2. Install pump in pit so that switch operating mechanism has
maximum possible clearance.
3. Pump should not be installed on clay, earth, or sand
surfaces. Clean sump pit of small stones and gravel which
could clog pump. Keep pump inlet screen clear.
NOTE: Do not use ordinary pipe joint compound on plastic
pipe. Pipe joint compound can attack plastics.
4. Install discharge plumbing. Use rigid plastic pipe and wrap
threads with Teflon tape or use Plasto Joint Stik
into pump hand tight +1-1⁄ 2 turns.
Risk of flooding. If a flexible discharge hose is
used, make sure pump is secured in sump to prevent
movement. Failure to secure pump may allow pump
movement, switch interference, and prevent pump from
starting or stopping.
5. To reduce motor noise and vibrations, a short length of
rubber hose (1-7/8" I.D., e.g. radiator hose) can be
connected into discharge line near pump using suitable
clamps.
6. Install an in-line check valve to prevent flow backwards
through pump when pump shuts off.
7. Power Supply: Pump is designed for 115 V., 60 Hz.,
operation and requires a minimum 15 amp dedicated
circuit. Both pump and switch are supplied with 3-wire
cord sets with grounding-type plugs. For automatic
operation, switch plug is inserted directly into outlet and
pump plug inserts into opposite end of switch plug. For
manual operation, pump plug is inserted directly into
outlet.
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 cut off round ground pin.
8. If pump discharge line is exposed to sub-freezing
temperature, portion of line exposed must be installed so

1. Shaft seal depends on water for lubrication. Do not operate
2. Motor is equipped with automatic reset thermal protector. If
3. Pump will not remove all water. If manually operated pump
check why unit has stopped operating, disconnect power from
unit. Do not handle pump with wet hands or when standing
on wet or damp surfaces, or in water.
NOTE: No repair parts available for this pump except a switch.
Replacement switches are designed for universal mounting on
the discharge pipe, not on the pump. Order Switch part

any water remaining in pipe will drain to the outfall by
gravity. Failure to do this can cause water trapped in
discharge to freeze, which could result in damage to
pump.

all power before damage can be done to motor. When
motor has cooled sufficiently, switch will reset automatically
and restart motor. If protector trips repeatedly, pump should
be removed and checked as to cause of difficulty. Low
voltage, long extension cords, clogged impeller, very low
head or lift, etc., could cause cycling.
