Installation
1. Install pump in a sump pit with
minimum size as shown below.
Construct sump pit of tile, concrete,
steel or plastic.
2. The unit should be located and rest
on a solid, level foundation. Do not
place pump directly on clay, earth,
gravel or sandy surface. These
surfaces contain small stones,
gravel, sand, etc. that may clog or
damage the pump and cause pump
failure.
Flood risk. If
flexible discharge
hose is used, make sure pump is
secured in sump pit to prevent
movement. Failure to secure pump
could allow pump movement and
switch interference and prevent pump
from starting or stopping.

body carefully to avoid stripping or
cross threading. Do not use pipe
joint sealant.

boot on check valve. Reverse boot
for 1-1/2” diameter pipe. Tighten
hose clamps.
Support pump and
piping when
assembling and after installation.
Failure to do so could cause piping to
break, pump to fail, etc. which could
result in property damage and/or
personal injury.
5. Protect electrical cord from sharp
object, hot surfaces, oil and
chemicals. Avoid kinking the cord
and replace damaged cords
immediately.
IMPORTANT: Make sure there is
adequate room for tether switch to
swing freely during operation.
6. A sump pit cover must be installed
to prevent debris from clogging or
damaging the pump.
