Periodic Service
5. Make sure the pump and its float switch are functioning as intended.
• Confirm that no potential obstructions exist that could inhibit switch operation.
NOTE: It is normal for a stream of water to spray from the air relief bleed hole in the pump's plumb-
ing. Verify that this spray is captured within the basin.
• Verify the pump turns on with 7 to 10 inches of water and stops when 1 to 3 inches of water is left in
the tank.
NOTE: If the pump doesn't turn on, test manual operation by connecting the pump's power plug
directly into the power source. If the pump runs, test the float switch.
6. Confirm that there are no leaks in the pump discharge
plumbing and main home drain pipe plumbing.
7. Allow the pump to operate through several ON/OFF
cycles.
8. Use an ohmmeter to check for continuity between the
incoming and outgoing connections of the piggyback
plug while raising and lowering the float.
MAINTENANCE
Risk of severe injury or death by electrical shock, high
temperatures, or pressurized fluids.
• Always unplug the pump power cord in addition to removing the fuse or shutting off the circuit breaker before
working on the pump or switch.
• Let pump cool for a minimum of 2 hours before attempting to service. Submersible pumps contain oil that
becomes pressurized and hot under normal operating conditions.
Risk of damage to pump or other equipment.
• This unit is permanently lubricated. Oiling is not required. Do not open the sealed portion of the unit or remove
housing screws.
• Do not remove the motor housing cover, impeller, or seals. Warranty is void if the motor housing cover, impeller,
or seals have been removed. Repairs on the motor or impeller require special tools.
Periodic Service
Inspect and test the pump system condition and operation every three months—more frequently in heavy-
use applications.
