INSTALLATION
CAUTION: Always use the handle to lift the pump. Never use the power cord to lift the pump. To avoid skin burns,
unplug the pump and allow time for it to cool after periods of extended use.
1. Connecting a 3/4 in. garden hose
Attach a garden hose with a 3/4 in. garden hose thread (not included) to the
pump outlet.
NOTE: Be sure the hose end has a rubber washer to minimize water leaks.
NOTE: The larger the inside diameter and the shorter the length of hose, the less pressure that is
lost (or the larger the flow rate).
2. Connecting a 1-1/4 in. hose kit
If you would prefer to use a 1-1/4 in. hose kit (not included) in order to pump water away more
quickly.
Attach the adaptor to the pump discharge.
Securely attach the hose kit (not included) to the adaptor.
WARNING: Secure the discharge hose before plugging in the pump. An unsecured discharge
hose may "whip" possibly causing personal injury, and/or property damage.
OPERATION
1. Plugging in the pump
Place the pump on a solid base in flooded area or any place that you would
like to remove water. Plug the pump into a 115 volt GFCI power outlet
WARNING:Do not handle the pump or pump motor with wet hands or when
standing on a wet or damp surface, or in water.
NOTE: Place upright on a solid base.
NOTE: The pump must be standing in at least 1 in. (25.4 mm) of water before you
start it. The shaft seal is water lubricated and may be damaged if the pump runs
dry.
2. Operating the pump
Allow the pump to run and monitor its progress.
Unplug the pump when it has removed water down to approximately 1/2 in.
(12.7 mm).
Remove the pump and hose from the location when finished pumping. The
hose still has water that can drain back through the pump. Remove
remaining water with a squeegee, mop, sponge, towel, wet/dry vac, etc.
CAUTION: Do not run the pump dry. Operating the pump without water will
cause damage to the seals and will cause the pump to fail, thereby voiding the pump's warranty.
