including Lead, which is known to the
State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or
other reproductive harm. For more information go to:

All electrical work must be performed by a
WARNING
qualified technician. Always follow the Na-
tional Electrical Code (NEC), or the Canadian Electrical Code,
as well as all local, state and provincial codes. Code ques-
tions should be directed to your local electrical inspector.
Failure to follow electrical codes and OSHA safety standards
may result in personal injury or equipment damage. Failure
to follow manufacturer's installation instructions may result in
electrical shock, fire hazard, personal injury or death, dam-
aged equipment, provide unsatisfactory performance and
may void manufacturer's warranty.
Pumps are listed for use in water and sewage
WARNING
as Class 1, Groups C and D hazardous loca-
tions. As defined by the NEC hand book, a Class 1 location
is one in which flammable gases or vapors are or may be
present in quantities sufficient to produce explosive or ignit-
able mixtures. See the NEC handbook for Groups C and D
definitions.

motor starter (control panel) with thermal
(high temperature) protection, over current protection
and moisture detection circuits. The over current protec-
tion must provide Class 10 quick trip protection. Consult
Motor Installation Manual as well as the National Electric
Code, Canadian Electric Code, state, provincial and/or
other local codes which may apply.
This motor is rated for continuous duty
WARNING
when fully submerged in liquid and
15-minute duty in air when operated at nameplate HP. Do
not exceed 15 minutes in air duty rating. Consult motor
manual for further information.

PRE-INSTALLATION CHECKS

Open all cartons and inspect for shipping damage. Report
any damage to your supplier or shipping carrier immediately.
Verify that all equipment is the correct voltage and phase.
Warranty does not cover damage caused by connecting
pumps and controls to an incorrect power source (voltage/
phase supply).
Record the model numbers and serial numbers from the
pumps and control panel on the front of this instruction
manual for future reference. Give it to the owner or affix it to
the control panel when finished with the installation.

LIFTING OF PUMP

DO NOT LIFT, CARRY OR HANG
WARNING
PUMP BY THE ELECTRICAL CABLES.
DAMAGE TO THE ELECTRICAL CABLES
CAN CAUSE SHOCK, BURNS OR
DEATH.
Hazardous voltage
can shock, burn or
cause death.
Lift the pump with an adequately sized chain or cable at-
tached to the lifting lugs on the motor. DO NOT damage
electrical and sensor cables while raising and lowering unit.

GUIDE RAIL SYSTEM

Hazardous Class 1 environments require
WARNING
non-sparking guide rail or disconnect equip-
ment. Mating parts constructed of brass or stainless steel will
prevent sparks during equipment installation and removal.
We offer the A10-30B, A10-40B and A10-60B cast iron and
brass guide rail assemblies for use in these locations.
Typical wastewater collection systems are possibly danger-
ous environments due to gases collected in the wet well.
Most codes do not allow personnel to enter a wetwell with-
out the correct protective equipment and training. Guide rail
systems are designed to allow easy removal of the pump
without the need for entry into the wetwell or need to disturb
piping.
An optional guide rail system facilitates pump installation
and removal for inspection and maintenance. Guide rails
eliminate this safety concern. They save time as there is no
need to disturb piping to pull a pump for service.
NOTICE: FOLLOW THE INSTALLATION
INSTRUCTIONS THAT ARE SUPPLIED WITH THE
GUIDE RAIL SYSTEM.
Installation of the guide rail should locate the pump opposite
the influent opening preventing stagnate areas where solids
can settle.
The pit floor must be flat under the guide rail base and have
sufficient loading capacity to support the entire weight of the
guide rail, discharge piping and the pump. See Typical Instal-
lations Drawings.
