prevent movement of the pump which could pre-
vent the tether switch from operating properly.
WARNING
!
When routing electrical cord protect
cord from sharp objects, hot surfaces, oils, and chem-
icals. Do not kink cord; do not use pump with a dam-
aged cord.

Adjustment And Testing

1. The SEP-500 pump is factory set to Cut-in at 18"
and to Cut-out at 10". If a differential other than
factory settings is used make sure the Cut-off
leaves at least 4" of fluid in the basin so the
impeller of the pump remains submerged at all
times.

Maintenance Instructions

WARNING
!
Always disconnect the electrical
supply or unplug the pump before attempting to
install, service, relocate, or perform any mainte-
nance. If the power source is out of sight, lock
and tag in the open (OFF) position to prevent
unexpected power application. Failure to do so
could result in fatal electrical shock. Only a quali-
fied technician should repair this unit. Improper
repair could result in fatal electrical shock.
Release all pressure and drain all liquids from sys-
tem before servicing any component in the sys-
tem. Failure to do so could result in personal injury.
The Motor is oil filled and sealed for cooler run-
ning. Allow 2 hours for the motor to cool before
servicing. Hot oil is under pressure and could
result in severe burns.
1. Check the operation of the Ground Fault
Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) on a monthly basis.

looseness monthly.
