1. Make sure there is a prop er ly in stalled ground

fault cir cuit inter rupter (GFCI) pro tect ed cir cuit avail able. All pumps are fur nished with pro vi sions for proper ground ing to help pro tect you against the pos si bil i ty of electrical shock.

2. Make certain that the ground fault re cep ta cle is with in the reach of the pump’s pow er sup ply cord DO NOT USE AN EX TEN SION CORD. Ex ten sion cords that are too long or too light do not de liv er sufficient volt age to the pump mo tor. But, more im por tant, they could present a safety haz ard if the in su la tion were to be come dam aged or the con nec tion ends were to fall into the sump and be come wet.

3. Make sure the pump elec tri cal sup ply cir- cuit is equipped with fuses or cir cuit break ers of prop er capacity. A sep a rate branch cir cuit is rec om mend ed, sized

ac cord ing the Na tional Elec tri cal Code for the cur rent shown on the pump name plate.

4. TESTING FOR GROUND. As a safe ty mea sure, each elec tri cal outlet should be checked for ground using an Under writ ers Labo ra tory List ed cir cuit an a lyz er which will in di cate if the power, neu tral and ground wires are cor rect ly con nected to your out let. If they are not, call a qual i fied li censed electrician.

5. Installation and checking of elec tri cal cir cuits and hard ware should only be per formed by a qual i fied li censed elec tri cian.

6. FOR YOUR PROTECTION, AL WAYS DIS- CON NECT PUMP FROM ITS POWER SOURCE BE FORE HANDLING.

THE SUMP PIT

1. The sump pit should be large enough to prevent frequent cycling of the pump. A sump pit of not less than 12” in diameter and 18” deep is required. On submersible type pumps, unit must be submerged to activate the switch.

2. The sump pit should have a hard bottom. Do not place the pump directly on clay, earth or sand surface. Make sure there are no small stones or gravel in the pit which may become clogged in the pump.

3. The sump pit may be constructed of tile, concrete, steel or plastic. Check local codes for satisfactory materials.

INSTALLATION

1. WARNING! DISCONNECT POWER AT THE MAIN ELECTRICAL BOX BEFORE INSTALLING OR SERVICING THE PUMP. DO NOT PLUG IN UNIT OR CHANGE FUSES WHILE STANDING ON WET OR DAMP SURFACES, AND DO NOT TOUCH ANY OTHER METAL SURFACES WHILE PLUGGING IN PRODUCT OR CHANGING FUSES. CHANGE FUSES WITH ONE HAND WHILE KEEPING THE OTHER HAND FREE.

2. Clean any debris from the pit and set the sump pump in place. The solid bottom of the sump will prevent clogging of the pump from sand and dirt.

3. LOCATE THE PUMP IN THE CENTER OF THE PIT SO THAT THE PUMP HOUSING AND ANY FLOAT CONTROL WILL NOT COME IN CONTACT WITH THE SIDE OF THE PIT AND CREATE OPERATIONAL PROBLEMS.

4. Connect the discharge piping and run it to the nearest sewer or surface outlet. Sump pumps can be piped to discharge into the house drainage system, to a dry well or splash block, or to a storm drain, depending on local plumbing codes. Always use a check valve when connecting discharge line to sewer lines. The discharge piping should be as short as possible to reduce pipe friction losses. It is recommended that the discharge pipe diameter be equal to or larger than the discharge size of the pump. Smaller pipe diameters will restrict the capacity of the pump and reduce performance.

5. Always install a union in the discharge line, preferably just above the sump pit, to allow easy removal of the pump for cleaning or repair.

6. For installations where the piping is long, the vertical discharge is above 7 or 8 feet, or a small sump has been provided, use of a check valve is recommended to prevent backflow of water into the sump and to reduce cycle frequency.

7. DO NOT ALLOW THE CORD TO INTERFERE WITH THE FLOAT CONTROL MOTION OR TO DRAPE OVER THE PUMP MOTOR. With electrician’s tape, secure the cord to the discharge pipe. This will provide protection for the cord and make a neat installation.

8. On submersible pump models with the mechanical float switch, first plug the float switch cord into outlet. Then plug the power cord into float switch cord.

9. After the discharge piping is complete and the sump cleaned, connect the pump cord to the electrical outlet and run water into the sump to test the pump. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO OPERATE THE PUMP WITHOUT WATER -- SEALS AND BEARINGS COULD BE DAMAGED.

10. Fill the sump with water to the normal turn-on level and allow the pump to remove the water to the normal control turn-off point.

11. Install a sump cover. A cover will prevent solid matter from falling into the sump, prevent odors, and guard against accidental injury.

WARNING! NEVER TOUCH THE SUMP PUMP OR DISCHARGE PIPING WHEN THE PUMP IS CONNECTED TO ELECTRICAL POWER AND WATER IS PRESENT IN THE SUMP. ALWAYS DISCONNECT THE PUMP FROM THE POWER SOURCE BEFORE HANDLING.

from the top of float rod.

5. Pass rod through eye of pump switch.

6. Slide 2nd (top) rubber rod stop flush with top of the

rod after passing through eye of switch. WARNING: Risk of flooding. Be sure that float rod is vertical and can move up and down freely. If float is angled or binds, pump may not start, allowing flooding to occur.

7. With lower rod stop in this position, pump will

automatically cycle at approximately 2-1/2” off and 10-

-12” on. For faster cycling, move lower rod stop closer to switch lever arm.

TROUBLESHOOTING CHECKLIST

Over 98% of all sump pumps returned to our factory are actually free from defects in material and workmanship, and can usually be traced back to one of the below situations. Please keep this sheet available in the unlikely event your submersible sump pump should ever need maintenance.

2. Keep top of magnet and switch housing

1. Make sure unit is plugged into a 115 volt grounded outlet that will not be turned off by a wall switch.

NOTE: Some model sump pumps include a nylon screen. Lint and other build-up should be removed from screen area periodically.

clean. Sometimes a film collects from dirty sump pits. Periodically wipe off the top of magnet with cloth.

3. Check for foreign objects in the base. The bottom plate can be removed to clean the impeller by taking out the sheet metal screws and removing the plastic bottom cover.

5. Unit needs to be sitting level in the pit. A concrete block or other material can be used to achieve this.

4. Check for dirt, rocks, mud or stones under float rod. This can keep the switch mechanism from properly turning on and off.
