Safety and Specifications

GENERAL SAFETY
See the “Troubleshooting Chart” in this manual for information about common sump pump problems and remedies.

SAFETY GUIDELINES
ATTENTION

  • RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK: This pump is supplied with a grounding conductor and grounding-type attachment plug. To reduce the risk of electric shock, be certain that it is connected only to a properly grounded, grounding-type receptacle. A separate branch circuit is recommended. Do not remove the third prong from the plug.
    RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK: This pump has not been certified for use in swimming pool areas where people are present in the water.

  • Do not use the pump for this purpose.
    WARNING: Do not use to pump flammable or explosive liquids such as gasoline, fuel oil, kerosene, etc. This pump should only be used with liquids compatible with pump component materials.

  • Failure to follow this warning can result in property damage, personal injury, or death.

  • The pump motor is equipped with an automatic resetting thermal protector and may restart unexpectedly.

  • Do not handle a pump or pump motor with wet hands or when standing on a wet surface, or in water. Do not stand in water while changing fuses or insert your finger into the fuse socket.

  • Disconnect the pump from the power source, drain all liquids, and release all pressure within the system before attempting to service the pump.

  • This pump has no user-serviceable parts. The motor housing of the pump is completely sealed and requires no service.

  • Disassembly of the motor housing or alteration of the power cord will void all warranties.

  • The power cord on this pump cannot be replaced. If it becomes damaged, the entire pump must be replaced.

  • Conformity with local and state electric codes is mandatory. The National Electric Code requires that a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) be used in the branch circuit supplying sump, utility, effluent, and all fountain pumps, pool pumps, and other pond equipment.

  • All wiring and electrical work should be done by a qualified electrician. Secure the discharge line before starting the pump. An unsecured discharge line will whip, possibly causing personal injury and/or property damage.

  • Do not operate the pump in a dry basin. This will cause the pump to become extremely hot, causing burns if touched and/or damage to the pump.

  • Do not lift or carry the pump by the power cord; use the handle.

DESCRIPTION
This pump is recommended for use in basins or household water lifts and is suitable for pumping clean/dirty water in a sump. This pump is designed for MANUAL control, and the pump turns on and off controlled by a cable plug. The unit is constructed of hi-impact corrosion-resistant plastic and stainless steel.
NOTICE: This product is not designed for pumping flammable or corrosive fluids, e.g. oil or brine…! Use with such materials will void the warranty.

INSTALLATION

ATTENTION
CAUTION: This pump is intended to pump water only, with a maximum temperature of 95 °F (35°C). Do not pump heated liquids.
CAUTION: The motor housing transfers heat to the volute. This pump is capable of operating with the motor housing partially exposed for extended periods, while still providing sufficient motor cooling and bearing lubrication. However, for the best cooling and longest motor life, the level of the liquid being pumped should normally be above the top of the motor housing.

  1. Place the pump on a hard, level surface in a suitable, gas-tight basin that is at least 10″ (25 cm) diameter and 6″ ( 15cm ) deep. Never place the pump directly on clay, earth, or gravel surfaces.

  2. Install the pump with ABS, PVC, polyethylene, or galvanized steel pipe. Use the proper adapters to connect the plastic pipe to the pump.

  3. The pump should be located and should rest on a level solid foundation.
    Do not suspend the pump using a discharge-pipe or power cord.
    Keep the pump inlet screen clear.

  4. Thread the outlet pipe into the pump body carefully to avoid stripping or crossing threads.

    • To install with a garden hose, install the adapter provided with the pump.
      NOTICE: To keep friction as low as possible, the hose must be 3/4″ or larger. Keep the hose as short as possible.

    • To install with rigid pipe, use plastic pipe. Wrap thread with Teflon tape or use a clamp or reliable thread sealant. Screw nine onto numb hand tight +1 – 1-1/2 turns.’

  5. Power Supply: The pump is designed for 115V., 60 Hz. operation and requires an individual branch circuit of 15 amperes or more capacity. It is supplied with a 3-record set with a grounding-type plug for use in a 3-wire grounded outlet. 3 3-wire extension cord of at least 18AWG (0.75mm*) size is suggested, with larger sizes for runs over 25 ft. For safety, the pump should always be electrically grounded to a suitable electrical ground such as a grounded water pipe a properly grounded metallic railway, or a ground wire system. Do not cut off the grounding protection conductor.
    WARNING The pump motor is equipped with automatic- setting thermal protector and may restart unexpectedly. Protector tripping is an indication of motor overloading as a result of operating the pump at low lift (which will overload the motor), excessively high or low voltage, inadequate wiring, incorrect motor connections, or defective motor or pump.

TESTING

ATTENTION
NOTE : When the pump is installed in a basin with a sealed cover, you cannot observe the operation of the float switch. The cover usually will have a spare hole that is blocked with a rubber plug. Remove this plug
to observe switch operation during testing.

  1. Check the pump label for the proper voltage required.
    WARNING: Do not connect the pump to a voltage other than that shown.

  2. Plug the power cord directly into an electrical outlet.

  3. Run water into the basin until the pump starts.

  4. Be sure the check valve in the discharge line is open.

  5. Allow the pump to operate through several on-off cycles.
    If the pump does not operate properly, consult the TROUBLESHOOTING INFORMATION table. If the trouble cannot be located, consult your pump dealer or take the pump to an authorized service center.
