power cord plug directly into a properly installed and grounded
3-prong (GFCI), ground ing-type re cep ta cle (as shown in Fig ure 1).
Where a 2-prong wall receptacle is en coun tered, it must be re placed
with a properly grounded 3-prong (GFCI) re cep ta cle installed in
accordance with the NEC and local codes and ordinances.
13. All wiring should be performed by a qualified electrician.
The pump motor is equipped with an automatic
resetting thermal protector and MAY restart
unexpectedly. Protector tripping is an indication of motor overheating as
a result of operating the pump at low head (low discharge restriction),
excessively high or low voltage, inadequate wiring, excessive water
temperature, inadequate water supply, excessive surrounding air
temperature, bound impeller / motor,
or a defective motor or pump.
14. Protect electrical cord from sharp ob jects, hot sur fac es, oil, and
chemicals. Avoid kinking the cord. Replace damaged or worn cords
immediately. Wiring must be of ad e quate size to min i mize voltage
drop at the motor.
15. Do not handle a pump or pump motor with wet hands or when
standing on a wet or damp surface, or in water.
If your basement or room has water or moisture
on the floor, do NOT walk on wet area until all
power has been turned off. If the shut-off box is in the basement, call
the electric company to shut-off service to the house, or call your local
fire department for instruction. Failure to follow this warning WILL result
in fatal electrical shock.
APPLICATION
Important: This pump is not designed for use in septic tanks or
underground vaults to handle raw sewage or gray water. It should never
be used in hazardous or explosive locations. Do not use power cord or
discharge hose to lift pump. Always use the handle.
1.
Pump should be located and should rest on a level solid foundation.
Pump requires 2-5/8 in. of water minimum to operate. Do not
suspend pump by means of the dishcarge pipe or power cord.
Keep pump inlet screen clear. Do not place pump directly on clay,
earth or sand sur fac es. Protect pump from extreme heat and cold.
Use pipe joint seal ant to ensure airtight pipe con nec tions.
2.
Thread discharge (outlet) pipe into pump body care ful ly to avoid
stripping or cross threading.
3.
To install garden hose, install the elbow adapter provided with the

pump. The elbow adapter uses a o-ring seal to provide better water
removal. Rotate the elbow adapter until the o-ring seals against the
pump body and the discharge is in the desired direction. Thread
garden hose onto the elbow fitting.
NOTE: The garden hose must be 3/4 in. or larger to keep friction as low
as possible.
A 1-1/4 in. sump discharge hose adapter can be connected directly to
the pump body using plumber's seal tape.
4.
Run discharge pipe/hose away from the pump.
5.
It is required that this unit is plugged into a Ground Fault Circuit
In terrupt er (GFCI). Con sult a local electrician for installation and
availability.
Power Supply: Pump is designed for 120 volt, 60 Hz operation and
requires a circuit of 15 amp minimum capacity. Pump is supplied with
a 3-wire cord set with ground ing-type plug for use in a 3-wire (GFCI),
grounded outlet.
Do NOT cut off the round grounding prong.
Cutting cord or plug WILL void warranty and
MAY make pump inoperable.
6.
Do not bend, kink or cut power cord. Protect cord from sharp
objects, hot sur fac es, oil and chemicals. Re place damaged cord.
7.
After all piping and controls have been installed, unit is ready for
operation.
OPERATION
Do NOT touch pump, pump motor,
water or discharge piping when
the pump is connected to electrical power. Do NOT handle
a pump or pump motor with wet hands or when standing
on wet or damp surface, or in water. NEVER touch the pump
or discharge piping when unit is operating or fails to operate. ALWAYS
disconnect the pump cord (power) before handling.
Risk of electrical shock! This pump
is supplied with a grounding
conductor and grounding type attachment plug. Use a
grounded (GFCI) receptacle to reduce the risk of fatal
electrical shock.
This pump is designed for 120 Volt, 60 Hz operation and requires a
15 amp circuit or more and is equipped with a 3-wire cord set with a
grounding-type plug for use in a 3-wire ground ed (GFCI) outlet. For safety,
this pump should always be electrically grounded to a suitable electrical
ground. NEVER cut off the round grounding plug.
1.
Pump should never be allowed to run dry. Shaft seal depends
on water for lu bri ca tion. Do not operate the pump unless it is
submerged in water. Dry run ning (pump not pumping water) will
cause seal damage and eventual pump failure.
2.
Plug unit into 120 volt GFCI outlet.
3.
The motor is equipped with an automatic reset ther mal protector.
This means if the temperature in the motor should rise unduly, the
protector will cut off all power before damage can be done to the
motor. When the motor has cooled sufficiently, the switch will reset
automatically and restart the motor. If protector trips repeatedly
(cycling of protector) pump should be removed and checked. Low
