• Do not use this pump in swimming pools or other situations where people are immersed.
• This pump is suitable for use in water temperatures up to 95° F / 35° C.
• Do not use this pump with inflammable, corrosive, explosive (e.g. petrol, fuel, diluents) or drinkable l
liquids, greases, oils or foodstuffs.
8.
Do not install or store the appliance where it will be exposed to the weather or to temperatures below freezing.
Remove and store the pump in a sheltered place. Shelter pump away from direct sunlight. The materials
have high stability to sunlight but direct rays may overheat the motor and speed up insulator aging.

IMPORTANT - Make sure that the pump is securely installed before operating it. Do not allow the pump
to run dry. The pump must be immersed in water completely. This pump must never operate outside of water.
Before starting the pump make sure that:
• The voltage and frequency specified on the pump's nameplate coincide with those of the available power
supply; these pumps are designed for 115 Volt – 60 Hz operation.
• There are no signs of damage to the pump or its power cord;
• The electric connection is made in a dry place, protected against any risk of flooding;
• Conformity with local and State electric codes is mandatory. The National Electric Code requires that a
ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) be used in the branch circuit supplying sump, utility, effluent and
all fountain pumps, pool pumps and other pond equipment. Consult a licensed electrician or your
power company if in doubt.
• The float must be able to move freely while the pump is in operation.
• It is absolutely essential to prevent any risk of the pump freezing. In the event of freezing temperatures,
remove the pump from the liquid, empty it and keep it in a place where it cannot freeze.
• Periodically, it is advisable to make sure that no dirt (leaves, sand, etc.) has accumulated in the collection
trap or around the suction grid.
10. If an extension cord is necessary, ensure connection is watertight and dust proof. A cord with proper rating
should be used. A cord rated for less amperes or watts than the appliance rating may overheat. Any exten
sion cords must comply with requirements of the DIN VDE Standard 0620. Care should be taken to arrange
the cord so that it will not be tripped over or pulled. The connection should be carried out by a qualified
electrical installer.
Automatic operation:
The floating switch starts and stops the pump automatically. The water level that prompts the starting and
stopping of the pump can be adjusted by changing the length of cable between the holder and the float.
The length of cable for the float must never be shorter than ½".
Manual operation:
a) The floating switch must be lifted in order to start pumps with a float.
b) For pumps without a float, insert the plug.
11. IMPORTANT – Supply electrical power through a Residual Current Device (RCD or Ground Fault Current
Interrupter) with rated residual current not exceeding 30 mA.
12. WARNING – RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK – This pump is supplied with a grounding-type or attachment plug.
To reduce the risk of electric shock:
• The electric connection should be made in a dry place, protected against any risk of flooding;
• Be certain that it is connected only to a properly grounded, grounding-type receptacle
