WARNING

ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD.

To help reduce the risk of electrical shock, a properly grounded receptacle or control box of grounding type must be installed and protected by a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) in accordance with the National Electrical Code and applicable local codes. Never remove ground pin from plug.

ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD.

Make certain that the ground fault interrupter protected receptacle is within reach of the pump’s power supply cord. DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD. Extension cords that are too long or too light do not deliver sufficient voltage to the pump motor. But more important, they could present a safety hazard if the insulation were to become damaged or the connection end were to fall into a damp or wet area.

ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD.

Make sure the pump’s electrical supply circuit is equipped with fuses or circuit breakers of proper capacity. A separate branch circuit, sized according to the National Electrical Code for the current shown on the pump name plate is recommended (see Note 3).

ELECTRICAL SHOCK ALERT.

TESTING FOR GROUND. As a safety measure, each electrical outlet should be checked for ground using an Underwriters Laboratory Listed circuit analyzer which will indicate if the power, neutral and ground wires are correctly connected to your outlet. If they are not, call a qualified licensed electrician.

WARNING

ELECTRICAL SHOCK ALERT.

Installation and checking of electrical circuits and hardware should only be performed by a qualified licensed electrician.
