High voltages capable of causing severe
injury or death by electrical shock are
present in this unit.
• To reduce risk of electrical shock, disconnect power before
working on or around the system. More than one discon-
nect switch may be required to de-energize the equipment
before servicing.
• Be certain that this pump is connected to a circuit
equipped with a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI)
device.
• Wire pump system for correct voltages.
• The pump has been evaluated for use with water only.
Pump should only be used with liquids compatible with
pump component materials. If the pump is used with liq-
uids incompatible with the pump components, the liquid
can cause failure to the electrical insulation system result-
ing in electrical shock.
Risk of damage to pump or other equipment.
• Do not use this pump for pumping sea water, beverages,
acids, chemical solutions, or any other liquid that pro-
motes corrosion as this can result in damage to the pump.
• Do not run pump dry. For optimal cooling and to prolong
the motor life, the liquid level being pumped should nor-
mally be above the top of the pump housing.
• This pump is not suitable for pond applications.

Risk of bodily injury, electric shock,
or property damage.
• This equipment must not be used by children or persons
with reduced physical, sensory, or mental abilities, or lack-
ing in experience and expertise, unless supervised or
instructed. Children may not use the equipment, nor may
they play with the unit or in the immediate vicinity.
• Equipment can start automatically. Always unplug the
pump power cord and disconnect the electrical power
before servicing the pump or switch. Lockout-Tagout
before servicing equipment.
• An inoperative or malfunctioning pump could lead to
flooding, resulting in personal injury or property damage.
• In applications 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, an automatic back-up system and/or an
alarm should be installed.
• Do not run the pump dry. If run dry, the surface tempera-
ture of the pump will rise to a high temperature that could
cause skin burns if touched, and will cause serious dam-
age to the pump.
• Do not oil the motor. The pump's motor housing is sealed,
1
and contains a high-grade dielectric oil for heat transfer
and lifetime lubrication. Use of other oils could cause seri-
ous electric shock and/or permanent damage to the
pump.

and operation instructions provided in this manual for use
with this product.
• Read entire manual before starting installation and opera-
tion.
• End User should receive and retain manual for future use.
