Manufacturer warrants, to the purchaser and subsequent owner during the warranty period, every new product to be free from defects
in material and workmanship under normal use and service, when
properly used and maintained, for a period of one year from date of
purchase by the end user, or 18 months from date of original manufacture of the product, whichever comes fi rst. Parts that fail within
the warranty period, one year from date of purchase by the end user,
or 18 months from the date of original manufacture of the product,
whichever comes fi rst, that inspections determine to be defective in
material or workmanship, will be repaired, replaced or remanufactured
at Manufacturer's option, provided however, that by so doing we will
not be obligated to replace an entire assembly, the entire mechanism
or the complete unit. No allowance will be made for shipping charges,
damages, labor or other charges that may occur due to product failure,
repair or replacement.
This warranty does not apply to and there shall be no warranty for
any material or product that has been disassembled without prior approval of Manufacturer, subjected to misuse, misapplication, neglect,
alteration, accident or act of God; that has not been installed, operated
or maintained in accordance with Manufacturer's installation instructions; that has been exposed to outside substances including but not
limited to the following: sand, gravel, cement, mud, tar, hydrocarbons, hydrocarbon derivatives (oil, gasoline, solvents, etc.), or other
abrasive or corrosive substances, wash towels or feminine sanitary
products, etc. in all applications other than in raw sewage pumping
applications. The warranty set out in the paragraph above is in lieu
of all other warranties expressed or implied; and we do not authorize
any representative or other person to assume for us any other liability
in connection with our products.

MANUFACTURER EXPRESSLY DIS CLAIMS LI A BIL I TY FOR SPE CIAL, CON SE QUEN TIAL OR IN CI DEN TAL DAM AG ES OR BREACH
OF EX PRESSED OR IMPLIED WARRANTY; AND ANY IMPLIED
WAR RAN TY OF FIT NESS FOR A PAR TIC U LAR PUR POSE AND

Some states do not allow limitations on the duration of an implied
warranty, so the above limitation may not apply to you. Some states
do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or con se quen tial
dam ag es, so the above lim i ta tion or exclusion may not apply to you.
This warranty gives you specifi c legal rights and you may also have
other rights which vary from state to state.
Preinstallation Information
1. Inspect your unit. Occasionally, products are damaged
during ship ment. If the unit is damaged, contact your dealer be fore
using.
2. Carefully read the literature provided to fa mil iar ize your self
with spe cif ic details re gard ing in stal la tion and use. These
ma te ri als should be retained for future ref er ence.
3. “Risk of electrical shock” Do not re move
power supply cord and strain relief or connect conduit directly
to the pump. In stal la tion and check ing of electrical circuits
and hardware should be performed by a qualifi ed and li censed
electrician.
4. Do not lift, carry, or hang pump by the
elec tri cal ca bles. Dam age to the electrical cables can cause
shock, burns or death.
5. For your protection, make cer tain the
pump ground wire is properly connected to the ground
wire with the incoming power line. Test for ground at the
junc tion box using an Un der writ ers Lab o ra to ry list ed cir cuit an a lyz er
which will indicate if the power, neutral and ground wires are cor rect ly
con nect ed. If in doubt, call a qual i fi ed li censed elec tri cian.
6. Make cer tain that the receptacle is with in
the reach of the pump’s power supply cord. DO NOT USE
AN EX TEN SION CORD. Extension cords that are too long
or too light do not de liv er suffi cient voltage to the pump motor . But,
more im por tant, they could present a safe ty haz ard if the in su la tion
were to become damaged or the connection end were to get wet.
7. Make sure the pump elec tri cal sup ply
cir cuit is equipped with fus es or cir cuit break ers of prop er
ca pac i ty. A sep a rate branch circuit is rec om mend ed, and
sized ac cord ing to the “Na tion al Elec tri cal Code” for the cur rent
shown on the pump nameplate.
8. DO NOT run the pump dry. DO NOT run the pump
with a completely closed discharge. DO NOT pump chem i cal or
cor ro sive liquids. Failure to follow above warnings could result in
damage to the pump, void ing the warranty and causing personal
injury.
9. Check to be sure your pow er source is
ca pa ble of handling the volt age re quire ments of the motor, as
in di cat ed on the pump name plate.
10. The installation of pumps using auxiliary variable level fl oat switch es
is the responsibility of the in stall ing party. Care should be taken
such that the tethered fl oat switch will not hang up and are secured
so that the pump will turn on and off properly.
11. Water ham mer creates momentary high pres sure
surges. These surges can cause severe dam age to check valves
and the piping system. Consideration for water ham mer must be
included in the piping sys tem design. Reference ASPE Data Book,
Chapter 2.33. Some systems may re quire ex ter nal spring or lever
weight ed check valves or other en gi neered solutions.
12. In cold climates the discharge pipe may be subject
to freez ing. If the riser on the septic tank is above the frost line, it will
be necessary to protect the system from freeze up. The discharge
pipe can be insulated or the check valve can be removed. If the
check valve is removed, the “on-off” cycle must be adjusted for
any back-fl ow from the dis charge line.
13. According to the state of California (Prop 65), this
product contains chemicals known to the state of California to
cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm.
