OPERATION TESTING
Testing Automatic Pump Operation
The 6EC-CIA-RF, 6EC-CIA-DS, and 10EC-CIA-RF pumps have pig-
gyback plugs on the switch cords.
1. Plug the pump cord into the float switch cord.
2. Plug the float switch cord into the outlet.
OPERATION TESTING
Risk of bodily injury, electric shock, or equipment damage.
• Manual, continuous pump operation should be used only for emergencies, or when a large volume of water is to
be pumped. The pump must be continuously monitored during operation and disconnected from power before
the pump runs dry.
• If an accessory float switch or other liquid level control is installed, refer to manufacturer's instructions. Failure to
install control in compliance with national and local electrical and plumbing codes and within manufacturer's
recommendations may result in electrical shock or fire hazard, unsatisfactory performance, or equipment failure.
Risk of damage to pump or other equipment.
• If pump is run dry, it may damage pump and will void the warranty.
• Do not let the unit freeze. Freezing may cause cracking or distortion that may destroy the unit.
The 6EC-CIM, 6EC-CBM, and 10EC-CIM manual pumps do not include an automatic liquid level control.
To test pump operation independently of the float switch cord, install the pump and plug the pump
cord directly into the outlet.
NOTE: If the unit is going to be idle for a period of time, refer to

Testing Automatic Pump Operation
The 6EC-CIA-SFS, 6EC-CBA-SFS, and 10EC-CIA-SFS automatic pumps are equipped with an integral
float-operated mechanical switch which will turn the pump on when water level reaches the levels
shown in
"Specifications" on page
The 6EC-CIA-RF and 10EC-CIA-RF pumps have automatic switches with piggyback plugs on the switch
cords.
The 6EC-CIA-DS models are equipped with a diaphragm switch that operates by balancing water and
air pressure. Rising water in the basin applies pressure to the diaphragm, which activates the switch,
turning on the pump. As the water level falls, the pressure decreases until the switch deactivates, turn-
ing off the pump. For the switch to function properly, it is vented to the atmosphere through a breather
tube routed through the pump's power cord. Non-restrictive air flow in the breather tube is required.
