minor personal injury or property damage if ignored.
The word NOTICE indicates special instructions which are
important but not related to hazards.
Electrically powered sump pumps normally give many years of
trouble-free service when correctly installed, maintained, and
used. However, unusual circumstances (interruption of power to
the pump, dirt/debris in the sump, flooding that exceeds the
pump's capacity, electrical or mechanical failure in the pump,
etc.) may prevent your pump from functioning normally. To pre-
vent possible water damage due to flooding, consult your dealer
about installing a secondary sump pump, a DC backup sump
pump, and/or a high water alarm. See the "Troubleshooting
Chart" in this manual for information about common sump
pump problems and remedies. For more information, see your
dealer or call customer service at 1-800-468-7867.
1. Know the pump application, limitations, and potential
hazards.
2. Disconnect the power before servicing.
3. Release all pressure within the system before servicing any
component.
4. Drain all the water from the system before servicing.
