material and workmanship.
Before installation and operation, we recommend the following procedures :

A
with the regulations. These codes have been designed with your safety in
mind. Be sure you comply with them.
We recommend that the pump be used on a separate circuit lead from
B

or a circuit breaker. The motor must be securely plugged into a proper
'GFCI' electrical outlet. Consult a licensed electrician for all wiring.

They are supplied and designed for your protection.
Never make adjustments to any electrical appliance or product with
D
the power connected. Do not only unscrew the fuse or trip the breaker,
remove the power plug from the receptacle.
MONTHLY MANDATORY CHECK-UP :
1. Inspect the pump for any obvious condition that necessitates cleaning, correction, adjustment
or repair.
2. Clear the surroundings of any paper, leaves or other debris that might clog the input openings.
Remove anything that might float into the suction area.
3. Ensure that the pump is secure and vertical for proper operation.
4. Ensure that there is adequate clearance from any combustible materials or structure. Stored
materials must be kept away from the pump. Shelves or cabinet structures must not be in
close proximity to the pump.
5. Test the 'GFCI' outlet by pressing its test switch. This should prove that the outlet is energized
and will trip off to protect against a ground fault. Be sure to reset the 'GFCI' by pressing its
reset switch.
6. Lift the float to prove that the pump will start when required. (Step 8 below will test
submersible pumps with enclosed floats).
7. Put the necessary pail of water in the sump to prove that any check valve present will permit
effluent to flow.
8. Observe that the plumbing can carry the effluent safely out of residence.
