READ AND FOLLOW
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS!
Carefully read and follow all safety instructions in this manual
and on pump.
This is the safety alert symbol. When you see this symbol
on your pump or in this manual, look for one of the fol-
lowing signal words and be alert to the potential for personal
injury.
warns about hazards that will cause serious per-
sonal injury, death or major property damage if ignored.
warns about hazards that can cause serious per-
sonal injury, death or major property damage if ignored.
warns about hazards that will or can cause
minor personal injury or property damage if ignored.
The word NOTICE indicates special instructions which are
important but not related to hazards.
Electrically powered sump pumps normally give many years of
trouble-free service when correctly installed, maintained, and
used. However, unusual circumstances (interruption of power to
the pump, dirt/debris in the sump, flooding that exceeds the
pump’s capacity, electrical or mechanical failure in the pump,
etc.) may prevent your pump from functioning normally. To pre-
vent possible water damage due to flooding, consult your dealer
about installing a secondary sump pump, a DC backup sump
pump, and/or a high water alarm. See the “Troubleshooting
Chart” in this manual for information about common sump
pump problems and remedies. For more information, see your
dealer or call customer service at 1-800-468-7867.
1. Know the pump application, limitations, and potential
hazards. Pump water only with this pump.
2. Do not use this pump in water with fish present. If any oil
leaks out of the motor it can kill fish.
3. Disconnect the power before servicing.
4. Release all pressure within the system before servicing any
component.
5. Drain all the water from the system before servicing.
6. Secure the discharge line before starting the pump. An unse-
cured discharge line will whip, possibly causing personal
injury and/or property damage.
7. Check hoses for weak or worn condition before each use,
making certain that all connections are secure.
8. Periodically inspect the sump, pump and system compo-
nents. Keep free of debris and foreign objects. Perform rou-
tine maintenance as required.
9. Provide a means of pressure relief for pumps whose dis-
charge line can be shut-off or obstructed.
10. Personal Safety:
a. Wear safety glasses at all times when working with
pumps.
b. Keep work area clean, uncluttered and properly lighted –
replace all unused tools and equipment.
c. Keep visitors at a safe distance from work area.
d. Make workshop child-proof – with padlocks, master
switches, and by removing starter keys.
11. When wiring an electrically driven pump, follow all electri-
cal and safety codes that apply.
12. This equipment is only for use on 115 volt and is equipped
with an approved 3-conductor cord and 3-prong, grounding-
type plug.
Hazardous voltage. Can shock, burn or
cause death. To reduce the risk of electric shock, pull the
plug before servicing. Pump is supplied with a grounding
conductor and grounding-type attachment plug. Be sure it
is connected only to a properly grounded grounding-type
receptacle.
Where a 2-prong wall receptacle is encountered, it must be
replaced with a properly grounded 3-prong receptacle
installed in accordance with codes and ordinances that apply.
This pump has not been investigated for use in swimming
pool areas.
13. A ground fault circuit interrupter is recommended for use
with any electrical appliance submerged in water. Installation
and all wiring should be performed by a qualified electrician.
14. Make certain the power source conforms to the requirements
of your equipment.
15. Protect the electrical cord from sharp objects, hot surfaces,
oils, and chemicals. Avoid kinking the cord. Replace or repair
damaged or worn cords immediately.
16. Do not touch an operating motor. Motors can operate at high
temperatures.
17. Do not handle the pump or pump motor with wet hands or
when standing on a wet or damp surface, or in water.
Risk of electric shock. Can burn or kill. If your
basement has water or moisture on floor, do not walk on the wet
area until all power has been turned off. If the shut-off box is in
the basement, call electric company or hydro authority to shut-
off the service to house, or call your local fire department for
instructions. Failure to follow this warning can result in fatal
electrical shock.
18. DO NOT splice the electrical power cord.
19. DO NOT allow the electrical cord plug to be submerged.
20. DO NOT use extension cords. They are a fire hazard and
can reduce voltage sufficiently to prevent pumping and/or
damage motor.
21. Connect or wire the pump to an individual branch circuit
with no other outlets or equipment in the circuit. Size fuses
or circuit breakers according to the specifications.
