6. Check hoses for weak and worn
condition before each use, making
certain that all connections are secure.
7. Periodically inspect the pump and
system com po nents. Perform
routine maintenance as required
(See Maintenance Section).
8. Provide a means of pressure relief
for pumps whose discharge line can
be shut-off or obstructed.
9. Personal Safety:
a.Wear safety glasses at all times
when working with pumps.
b.Keep work area clean, uncluttered
and properly lighted; replace all
unused tools and equipment.
c. Keep visitors a safe distance from the
work area. Make workshop child-
proof with pad locks, master switch es,
and by re mov ing starter keys.
10. When wiring an elec tri cal ly driven
pump such as this, fol low all
electrical and safety codes, as well as
the most recent National Electrical
Code (NEC) and the Oc cu pa tion al
Safety and Health Act (OSHA).
Risk of electric shock! Never
connect the green (or green
and yellow) wire to a live
terminal!
11. This equipment is only for use on
120 volt (single-phase) and is
equipped with an ap proved 3-con -
duc tor cord and 3-prong, grounding-

12. All wiring should be performed by a
qualified elec tri cian.
13. It is strongly recommended that this
unit is plugged into a Ground Fault
Circuit Interrupter (GFCI). Con sult a
local electrician for installation and

equipped with automatic resetting
thermal protector and may restart
unexpectedly. Protector tripping is an
indication of motor overloading as a
result of operating the pump at low
heads (low discharge restriction),
excessively high or low voltage,
inadequate wiring, incorrect motor
conditions, or a defective motor or pump.
14. This pump is designed to transfer
water in cycles. Using this pump in a
continuous duty application by ma -
nip u lat ing the switch to stay on, will
effect the per for mance and the life
of the product.
15. Protect electrical cord from sharp
objects, hot sur fac es, oil, and
chemicals. Avoid kinking the cord.
Re place or repair damaged or worn
cords im me di ate ly. Use wire of
adequate size to minimize voltage
drop at the motor.

16. Do not handle a pump or pump motor
with wet hands or when standing on a
wet or damp surface, or in water.
17. Do not hang this product by the
carry handle. Sewage pumps should
be set firmly on their legs and
supported by rigid piping. This
eliminates twisting and damage
during pump operation.
18. Do not use an extension cord.
Do not walk on wet area until
all power has been turned off.
If the shut-off box is in
basement, call the electric company to
shut-off service to the house, or call the
local fire department for instructions.
Remove pump and repair or replace.
Failure to follow this warning can result
in fatal electrical shock.
Installation
where property damage and/or personal
injury might result from an inoperative or
leaking pump due to power outages,
discharge line blockage or any other
reason, use a backup system(s).
1. Thread the discharge pipe or pipe
nipple into the dis charge connection.
2. If a check valve is used in a solids
handling system mount the check
valve in a horizontal position or at a
45° angle with the valve pivot on
top. In a vertical position, solids will
tend to lodge on the valve flapper
and can prevent it from opening.
3. Drill a 1/16" hole in the discharge
pipe ap prox i mate ly 1" to 2" above
the pump discharge when a check
valve is used. The hole prevents air
locking of the pump at the initial
start-up and if it should lose prime.
