Installation

Run the cables so that they do not have any sharp bends
and are not pinched.
Connect the motor cable to a grounded power supply.
See "Electrical connections".
Connect a discharge hose to the threaded discharge
connection. The pump is now fitted with a discharge hub
which may be adjusted to provide either vertical (std.)
or horizontal discharge. Simply remove the (2) hex head
cap screws holding the discharge hub, turn the discharge
hub 180º and reinstall the (2) screws.
Lower the pump into the sump by its handle. Do not
lower with cord.
Place the pump on a base which will prevent it from sink-
ing into a soft sump bottom. Alternati vely, the pump can
be suspended by its handle just above the sump bottom.

Electrical Connections

All electrical equipment must be grounded.
WARNING
This applies to both pump equipment and
any monitoring equipment. Failure to heed this
warning may cause a lethal accident. Make sure that the
ground lead is correctly connected by testing it.
All electrical work shall be carried out under the supervision
of an authorized electrician.
Local codes and regulations shall be complied with.
Check that the main voltage and frequency agree with the
specifications on the pump data plate.
Make sure that the pump is correctly grounded.
If people are likely to come into
WARNING
physical contact with the pump or pumped
media (liquid), e.g on construction sites or farms etc., the
grounded socket must have an additional ground-fault
protection device (GFI) connected. When pumping near a
lake (Jetties, beaches, ponds and fountains etc.) a safety-
distance of at least 65 ft. (20 meters) between people and
the pump is applicable. The pump must never be placed
directly into a swimming pool unless it is shut down for
maintenance. If used in connection with swimming
pools, special safety regulations apply.

LEVEL SWITCH OPERATION

Pump control by use of level switch.

Operation

BEFORE STARTING

Check the oil level in the oil casing.
Remove the fuses or open the circuit breaker and check
that the impeller can be rotated by hand.
Check that the monitoring equipment (if any) works.
Check the direction of rotation. The impeller should
rotate clockwise, as viewed from above. When started,
the pump will spin in the opposite direction to the
direction in which the impeller rotates. See the figure.
