18. Water transfers in cycles. Do not attempt to manipulate the switch to keep pump
running continuously. It is meant to shut off intermittently. Doing so will damage the
pump.
Note: Performance of this pump (if powered by line voltage) may vary depending on variations
in local line voltage. Extension cord usage may also affect pump performance.
Warning: The warnings, cautions, and instructions discussed in this instruction manual
cannot cover all possible conditions and situations that may occur. It must be understood
by the operator that common sense and caution are factors which cannot be built into
this product, but must be supplied by the operator.
Unpacking
When unpacking, check to make sure the parts listed on page 8 are included. If any parts
are missing or broken, please call Harbor Freight Tools at: 1-800-444-3353.
Installation
Reminder: This pump should be plugged into an outlet fitted with a Ground Fault Circuit
Interrupter (GFCI).
Note: Hose connection is covered on page 5.
1. Make sure the pump rests on a flat, level, and solid foundation. Never operate on
earth, clay, sand, or gravel surfaces.
2. Never suspend the pump from the power cord or discharge pipe. You may firmly
attach a rope to the carry handle.
3. Keep the pump inlet openings, near the suction base, clear of debris.
4. Avoid installation in areas of extreme heat or cold.
5. If the piping you install runs in excess of ten feet, it is recommended you use a check
valve (not included) to prevent back flow, which could lead to rapid cycling. To avoid
air locks in the pump, drill a 1/8” hole in the piping between the check valve and the
pump.
Sump Installation (all instructions above apply)
1. The sump pit must have a minimum diameter of 11” and maximum depth of 18 feet.
2. Construct the pit of tile, plastic, concrete, or steel.
3. Set the pump on a brick or block slightly smaller than the pit. Fill the pit with clean 1”
or larger stones to surround the lower half of the pump to keep it stable. The stones
should be large enough to not clog any of the inlets.
4. Test pump (see Operation on page 6).
5. Install a sump cover to protect the pump from falling debris.
