Installation / Operation
7. Screw float onto threaded end of rod. Threads on
rod will cut threads into corrosion-resistant float.
8. Insert plain end of float rod up through eye of
rod guide.
9. Slide one rod stop on float rod before passing
rod through eye of pump switch. Slide 2nd rod
stop on rod after passing through eye of switch.
Position 2nd rod stop flush with top of rod.
10. Position lower rod stop to within 8" (20 cm) of
switch lever arm. With lower rod stop in this
position, pump will automatically cycle at
approximately 2 1/2" (6 cm) off and 10-12"
(25-30 cm) on. For faster cycling, move lower
rod stop closer to switch lever arm.
11. If pump discharge line is exposed to outside
subfreezing atmosphere, then portion of line
exposed must be installed so any water remain-
ing in pipe will drain to outfall by gravity.
Failure to do this can cause water trapped in
discharge pipe to freeze which could result in
damage to pump.
12. Install an in-line check valve to prevent flow
backwards through pump after pump shuts off.
NOTICE: Make sure the check valve is
equipped with an air bleed hole to prevent air-
locking the pump. If using a check valve with-
out an air bleed hole, drill a 1/8" (3.2 mm) hole
in discharge pipe just above pump body but
below the check valve to prevent air locks.
13. After all piping and controls have been
installed, unit is ready for operation.
14. The pump is designed for 115 V, 60 Hz opera-
tion and requires an individual branch circuit
of 15 A.
Hazardous voltage. Can
shock, burn or cause death.
The pump is supplied with a grounding con-
ductor and grounding-type attachement plug.
Make sure it is connected only to a properly
grounded grounding-type receptacle. Grounded
to a suitable electrical ground such as a
grounded water pipe or a properly grounded
metallic raceway or ground wire system.
Where a 2-prong wall receptacle is encoun-
tered, it must be replaced with a properly
grounded 3-prong receptacle installed in accor-
dance with codes and orinances that apply. Do
not cut off the round grounding prong.
Hazardous voltage. Can
shock, burn or cause death.
This pump must be installed in accordance
with the Canadian Electrical Code (CEC),
as applicable and in accordance with all
applicable local codes and ordinaces in other
juristictions.
15. Run pump through one cycle to check float
switch operation.
Risk of flooding. Flooding
can cause personal injury
and property damage. Failure to make this
operational check may lead to improper opera-
tion, premature failure and flooding.
OPERATION
of electrical shock, unplug before servicing. Do not
plug in or unplug the pump while standing on a wet
floor or in water. If your basement has water or mois-
ture on the floor, do not walk on wet area until all
power has been turned off. If shut-off box is in base-
ment, call electric company or hydro authority to
shut-off service to the house, or call your local fire
department for instructions. Failure to follow this
warning can result in fatal electrical shock.
1. The motor is equipped with an automatic reset
thermal protector to protect unit from overheat-
ing. If the temperature in the motor should rise
unduly, the switch will cut off all power before
damage can be done to the motor. When motor
has cooled sufficiently, switch will reset auto-
matically and restart motor.
the pinching of hand or tools. The pump motor
is equipped with an automatic reset thermal
protector. If power is on when thermal protec-
tor resets, pump may start without warning. If
you are working on pump, you may get an
electrical shock or impeller may catch fingers
or tools. Disconnect power before servicing the
pump.
Repeated tripping could be caused by low volt-
age, long extension cords, clogged impeller,
very low head or lift, etc. Cycling of protector
will cause eventual motor burnout.
