GENERAL SAFETY INFORMATION

Electrically powered sump pumps normally give many years of trouble-free service when correctly installed, maintained, and used. However, unusual circumstances (interruption of power to the pump, dirt/debris in the sump, flooding that exceeds the pump’s capacity, electrical or mechanical failure in the pump, etc.) may prevent the pump from functioning normally. To prevent possible water damage due to flooding, consult your dealer about installing a high water alarm. See the “Troubleshooting Chart” in this manual for information about common sump pump problems and remedies. For more information, see your dealer or call customer service.

1. Know the pump application, limitations, and potential hazards.

2. Disconnect power before servicing.

3. Release all pressure within system before servicing any component.

4. Drain all water from system before servicing.

5. Secure discharge line before starting pump. An unsecured discharge line will whip, possibly causing personal injury and/or property damage.

6. Check hoses for weak or worn condition before each use, making certain that all connections are secure.

7. Periodically inspect system components. Keep free of debris and foreign objects. Perform routine maintenance as required.

8. Provide means of pressure relief for pumps whose discharge line can be shut-off or obstructed.

9. Personal Safety: a. Wear safety glasses at all times when working with

pumps.

b. Keep work area clean, uncluttered and properly

lighted – replace all unused tools and equipment. c. Keep visitors at a safe distance from work area. d. Make workshop child-proof – with padlocks, mas-

ter switches, and by removing starter keys.

10. When wiring an electrically driven pump, follow all electrical and safety codes that apply.

11. This equipment is only for use on 115 volt (single phase) and is equipped with an approved 3-conductor cord and 3-prong, grounding-type plug.

To reduce risk of electric shock, pull plug

before servicing. This pump has not been investigated for

use in swimming pool areas. Pump is supplied with a grounding conductor and grounding-type attachment plug. Be sure it is connected only to a properly grounded grounding-type receptacle. Where a 2-prong wall receptacle is encountered, it must be replaced with a properly grounded 3-prong receptacle installed in accordance with codes and ordinances that apply.

12. All wiring should be performed by a qualified electrician.

13. Make certain power source conforms to requirements of your equipment.

14. Protect electrical cord from sharp objects, hot surfaces, oil, and chemicals. Avoid kinking cord. Replace or repair damaged or worn cords immediately.

15. Do not touch an operating motor. Modern motors are designed to operate at high temperatures.

Risk of electric shock. If your basement has

water or moisture on the floor, do not walk on wet area until all power has been turned off. If shut-off box is in basement, call electric company or hydro authority to shut-off service to house, or call your local fire department for instructions. Remove and replace system. Failure to follow this warning can result in fatal electrical shock.

Risk of electric shock. Do not handle pump

or pump motor with wet hands or when standing on wet or damp surface, or in water. Always disconnect the pump and switch from the electrical power source before doing any maintenance.

16. Pump water only with this pump.

IMPORTANT: To prevent leaks, be sure that the cleats on the corners of the basin gasket are up with the cover upside down (that is, not pressed into the sealing face of the cover).

Step 7 (See Figure 5) Push the screws with their washers installed up through

the holes in the rim of the cover and in the basin gasket (the cover will retain the screws).

Step 8 (See Figure 6)

• Align the cover with the discharge pipe and cords.

• Pull the cords through the non-threaded hole in the basin cover.

• Place the cover over the discharge pipe.

• Install the cords in the cord grommet

• Install the cord/grommet assembly in the non-threaded hole in the basin cover; don’t pull the cords tight.

Step 9 (See Figure 6) Fasten the basin cover to the basin with the capscrews

previously inserted in the cover (Step 7). IMPORTANT: To prevent leaks, be sure the locating cleats

on the corners of the basin gasket are outside the edges of the basin rim, not pressing against the rim.

INSTALLATION (See Figure 7)

The basin (system) should be located at the lowest place possible relative to the area to be drained.

NOTE: Make sure that the inlet of the pre-plumbed system is lower than the water to be pumped.

1. Install inlet pipe in opening as shown. Use RTV sealants or Plasto-Joint Stik* to seal threads. See Figures 8, 9, and 10, page 4 and 5, for typical installation arrangements.

2. Install discharge plumbing. When using rigid pipe, use plastic pipe. Wrap thread with Teflon tape or use Plasto-Joint Stik*. Screw pipe into discharge fitting hand tight +1 – 1-1⁄2 turns.

NOTE: Do not use ordinary pipe joint compound on plastic pipe. Pipe joint compound can attack plastics.

3. To reduce motor noise and vibrations, a short length of rubber hose (1-7⁄8" I.D., e.g. radiator hose) can be connected into discharge line near pump using suitable clamps.

4. Install an in-line check valve to prevent flow backwards through pump when pump shuts off.

5. Thread vent pipe into 1-1⁄2" NPT black vent fitting in basin cover. Pipe should not extend into basin. Connect vent pipe to sewer vent system.

6. Power Supply: Pump is designed for 115 V., 60 Hz., operation and requires a minimum 15 amp individual branch circuit. Both pump and switch are supplied with 3-wire cord sets with grounding-type plugs. Switch plug is inserted directly into outlet and pump plug inserts into opposite end of switch plug.

Hazardous Voltage. Pump should always be

electrically grounded to a suitable electrical ground such as a grounded water pipe or a properly grounded metallic raceway or ground wire system. Do not cut off round ground pin.

7. If pump discharge line is exposed to outside sub-freezing atmosphere, portions of line exposed must be installed so any water remaining in pipe will drain to the outfall by gravity. Failure to do this can cause water trapped in discharge to freeze which could result in damage to pump.

8. After piping and check valve have been installed, unit is ready for operation.

9. Check operation by filling sump with water and observing pump operation through one complete cycle.

Risk of flooding. Failure to make this opera-

tional check may lead to improper operation, premature failure, and flooding.

MAINTENANCE

Risk of electric shock. Make certain that the

pump is unplugged before attempting to service or remove any component.

Risk of electric shock. Do not handle a

pump or pump motor with wet hands or when standing on wet or damp surface, or in water.

1. Keep pump inlet screen clear.

2. Shaft seal depends on water for lubrication. Do not operate pump unless it is submerged in water as seal may be damaged if allowed to run dry.

3. Motor is equipped with automatic reset thermal protector. If temperature in motor should rise unduly, switch will cut off all power before damage can be done to motor. When motor has cooled sufficiently, switch will reset automatically and restart motor. If protector trips repeatedly, pump should be removed and checked for cause of difficulty. Low voltage, long extension cords, clogged impeller, very low head or lift, etc., could cause cycling. Refer to Trouble shooting Guide on Page 6 for additional information.

4. Periodically inspect pump, system components, and sump for debris and foreign objects. Keep sump free of all refuse. Perform routine maintenance as required.

Pump Cleaning

NOTE: Attempting to disassemble motor will void warranty.

1. Use the pump ring to lift pump out of basin and place pump on a clean level surface.

Risk of electrical shock. Shock can burn or

kill. Do not lift pump by power cord.

2. To clean impeller, remove eight screws holding baseplate to motor assembly. Clean impeller as necessary.

3. Re-install baseplate and screws.

4. Use pump ring to replace pump in basin.
