If the basement has

water or moisture on the ﬂ oor, 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 backup system

should be used. Call

1-888-636-6628 for backup model number.

Installation

1. Install pump in a sump pit with

minimum size as shown in Figure 1 below. Construct sump pit of tile, concrete, steel or plastic.

2. The unit should be located and

rest 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.

REMINDER: Keep your dated proof of purchase for warranty purposes!

Attach it to this manual or file it for safekeeping.

Installation (continued)

Check Valve

Inlet Pipe

Figure 1

Flood risk. If

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.

3. A check valve is required in the discharge line to prevent back-flow when the pump shuts off. It is best to install the check-valve directly to the pump discharge. Thread a check valve into the pump discharge.

4. Connect 1-1/4 in. or 1-1/2 in. rigid pipe to rubber boot on check valve. (Reverse boot for 1-1/2 in. diameter pipe.) Tighten hose clamps.

Support pump and

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.

Make sure there is

the ﬂ oat switch to move freely during operation (see Figure 2).

Place pump

where the

ﬂ oat will

not be

obstructed

A freely moving ﬂ oat ensures that the pump will perform properly.

NOTICE: An obstructed ﬂ oat will cause the pump to fail.

5. Protect electrical cord from sharp objects, hot surfaces, oil and chemicals. Avoid kinking the cord and replace damaged cords immediately.

6. A sump pit cover must be installed to prevent debris from clogging or damaging the pump.

Operation

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.

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

Risk of electrical

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.

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

DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD.

3. Insert the pump power cord plug directly into a GFCI protected 120 Volt outlet (See Fig. 3).

4. Fill sump with water. The pump will start automatically when the water has filled the sump to a depth of approximately 9 in. The pump will stop when the water depth is approximately 4 in. The pump will recycle thereafter as required.

TEST

RESET

Do not operate the

pump unless it is submerged in water. Dry running causes pump failure.

5. 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.

6. If pump discharge line is exposed

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

NOTE: The motor is equipped with an automatic reset thermal protector.

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 qualiﬁ ed electricians should repair this unit. Improper repair could result in fatal electrical shock.

1. Let the pump cool for a minimum of

two hours before servicing because the pump contains hot oil under pressure and the motor is hot.

2. Disassembly of the motor prior to

expiration of warranty will void the warranty. If repairs are required, see troubleshooting chart.

3. Inlet should be kept clean and free

of all foreign objects and inspected annually. A clogged inlet will damage pump.

4. Pump should be checked monthly

for proper operation. Check pump by following step 4 listed in the operation section.

This pump contains

dielectric oil for cooling. This oil can be harmful to the environment. Check the state environmental laws before disposing this oil.
