PREPARATION
• This sump pump comes with a grounding conductor and a grounding-type attachment plug. Do not
connect pump to a power supply until permanently grounded. For maximum safety, connect pump to
a circuit equipped with a fault interrupter device when positioning the pump's grounding wire.
• Voltage of power supply must match the voltage of the pump.
• Before installing pump, clear sump basin of any water, debris or sediment.
OVERLOAD PROTECTION
This pump has a built in thermal protection switch. The pump stops if an overload condition
occurs. The motor restarts automatically after it has cooled down.
ELECTRICAL WIRE CONNECTION
WARNING
• Verify that the voltage and frequency of the pump shown on the nameplate corresponds to those
available on the mains. The installer must make sure that the electric system is grounded in
accordance with code.
• For outdoor use it is necessary to use cable with a length of at least 10 ft. The plug and connection
should be protected from water splashes. Before using the pump, always inspect it visually
(especially power cable and plug).
• DO NOT use pump if it is damaged.
• If the pump is damaged, have it inspected by an authorized service center.
• Make sure that electric connections are protected from flooding. Protect the plug and the power
cable from heat or sharp edges.
• The power cable must be replaced by qualified personnel only. Grounding: The plug of the power
cable has a double grounding contact so that grounding can be performed by simply inserting the
plug.
