INSTALLATION
Before Getting Started
Risk of severe injury or death by
electrical shock.
• 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 if required by code.
• This pump is supplied with lead wires and is intended to
be hardwired using a junction box or other approved
enclosure. The pump includes a grounding connector. To
reduce risk of electric shock, be certain that it is properly
connected to ground.
• Wire pump system for correct voltages. This pump has a
dual voltage motor (115/230 V). The voltage on the pump
must match the voltage from the power source. Incorrect
wiring may cause fire.
• Check local electrical and building codes before installa-
tion. The installation must be in accordance with their reg-
ulations as well as the most recent National Electrical Code
(NEC) and the Occupational Safety and Health Act
(OSHA).
• Employ a licensed electrician.
• Do not use in swimming areas.
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.
INSTALLATION

Pump Location

• Install the pump in a clean, dry, and ventilated location shielded from direct sun and precipitation.
• Provide adequate room for future servicing, protection from freezing temperatures, flooding, and equipment drainage.
• Bolt unit down evenly on a good foundation, preferably concrete, to prevent unnecessary stresses from pump movement.
• Install as close as possible to water source to minimize suction piping length.
• Keep motor operating area as dry as possible.

Piping Instructions

• Properly support suction and discharge piping to avoid strain on the pump.
• For effluent applications, always follow local codes and requirements for proper installation.
• The use of pipe thread sealant is recommended.
• Do not over-tighten piping connections.

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. 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.
• Operation of this equipment requires detailed installation
and operation instructions provided in this manual for use
with this product. Read entire manual before starting
installation and operation. End User should receive and
retain manual for future use.
• Keep safety labels clean and in good condition.
• Keep work area clean, well-lit, and uncluttered.
• Wear safety glasses while installing or performing mainte-
nance on the pump.
• Do not wear loose clothing, jewelry, or anything that may
be caught in the rotating parts. Tie up long hair and
remove jewelry.
