not designed to handle salt water, brine,
laundry discharge or any other
application which may contain caustic
chemicals and/or foreign materials. Pump
damage could occur if used in these
applications and will void warranty.

All wiring

must be

performed by a qualified electrician.

If the basement has water or
moisture on the floor, do not
walk on wet area until all
power is turned off. If the shutoff box is
in the basement, call an electrician.
Remove pump and either repair or
replace. Failure to follow this warning
could result in fatal electrical shock.

A battery

backup
system should be used. Call 1-888-636­6628 to order an emergency backup
system.

Assembly

Always disconnect the power
source before attempting to
install, service, relocate or
maintain the pump. Never touch sump
pump, pump motor, water or discharge
piping when pump is connected to
electrical power. Never handle a pump or
pump motor with wet hands or when
standing on wet or damp surface or in
water. Fatal electrical shock could occur.

REMINDER: Keep your dated proof of purchase for warranty purposes! Attach it to this manual or file it for safekeeping.

Flood

risk. If
flexible discharge hose is used, make
sure pump is secured in sump pit to
prevent movement. Failure to secure
pump could allow pump movement and
switch interference and prevent pump
from starting or stopping.

IMPORTANT: Make sure there is
adequate room for float switch to move
freely during operation.

7. Protect electrical cord from sharp

object, hot surfaces, oil and
chemicals. Avoid kinking the cord
and replace damaged cords
immediately.

8. A sump pit cover must be installed to

prevent debris from clogging or
damaging the pump.

Risk of electrical shock! This
pump is supplied with a
grounding conductor and
grounding type attachment plug. Use a
grounded receptacle to reduce the risk
of fatal electrical shock.

Never cut
off the round grounding prong.
Cutting the cord or plug will void the
warranty and make the pump
inoperable.

9. Insert the float switch cord plug

directly into a 120 volt outlet (See
Figure 3).

Installation

1. A ground fault circuit interrupter
(GFCI) is required.

2. This pump is for use on 120 Volt
(single phase), 60 hz, 15 amp service
and is equipped with a 3 conductor
cord and a 3 prong grounding plug.

3. Install pump in an indoor sump pit
with minimum size as shown (See
Figure 2). Construct sump pit of tile,
concrete, steel or plastic.

4. Locate unit on a solid, level
foundation. Do not place pump
directly on clay, earth, gravel or
sandy surface. These surfaces contain
small stones, gravel, sand, etc. that
may clog or damage the pump and
cause pump failure (See Figure 2).

5. (Optional) Thread check valve (not
included) into pump body carefully
to avoid stripping or cross threading.
Do not use pipe joint sealant.

6. Connect 1-1/4” rigid pipe to rubber
boot on check valve. Reverse boot
for 1-1/2” diameter pipe. Tighten
hose clamps.

Support

pump and
piping when assembling and after
installation. Failure to do so could
cause piping to break, pump to fail,
etc. which could result in property
damage and/or personal injury.

Operating Instructions and Parts Manual

ADJUST AND TEST

1. Fill sump with water.

2. Adjust rubber grommet into a
permanent position on float rod so
that the pump switches on with
approximately 14” of water in the
sump.

3. While the pump is draining the pit,
verify that the discharge piping is
carrying the water to a point
several feet away from the
foundation.

4. If the pump discharge line is
exposed to freezing temperature,
the exposed line must be pitched to
drain. Trapped water will freeze
and damage the pump.

Maintenance

Always disconnect the
electrical supply before
attempting to install, service,
relocate or perform any maintenance.
If the power source is out of sight, lock
and tag in the open (off) position to
prevent unexpected power application.
Failure to do so could result in fatal
electrical shock. Only qualified
electricians should repair this unit.
Improper repair could result in fatal
electrical shock.

1. Disassembly of the motor prior to
expiration of warranty will void the
warranty. If repairs are required, see
troubleshooting chart.

2. Keep pump inlet clean and free of all
foreign objects and inspect annually.
A clogged inlet will damage pump.

3. Check pump monthly for proper
operation.

Note: Pump is equipped with an
automatic reset thermal protector.
