Operation
1
Connecting power
□ Make sure the pump is submerged in water.
□
Plug the pump power cord plug into a 115V GFCI power
outlet.
WARNING: Do not handle this pump or plug in or unplug
this pump with wet hands or while standing in water,
unless you are certain all power has been turned off to the
pump. Remember, the pump should be connected only to a
properly grounded, GFCI outlet.

Operating the pump
□ After connecting power to the pump and periodically
afterwards, test the pump:
□ Fill the basin to above the Float Switch Operation ON
Height. The pump should start pumping.
□ The pump should pump the water down to below
its Float Switch Operation OFF Height and then stop
pumping.
□ If the water drains back into the basin and restarts the
pump, make sure the check valve is properly installed
and working. Make sure that all pipe connections are
tight.
□ The motor is equipped with an automatically resetting
thermal overload protector. If the motor gets too hot,
the overload protector will shut off the pump before it is
damaged. When the motor has cooled sufficiently, the
overload protector will reset, and the motor will restart.
NOTICE: If the overload protector stops the pump
repeatedly, disconnect the power from the pump and check
to find the problem. Low voltage, a long extension cord,
clogged impeller, screen blocked by debris, or water that is
too hot can cause motor overheating.
