PIPING
System piping MUST conform to all local and national
plumbing codes and practices.
To maximize the discharge flow, discharge piping should
be at least as large as the pump discharge. Keep the
discharge pipe as short as possible and avoid unnecessary
fittings.

WARNING
Wire rope WILL FAIL if worn-out, overloaded, misused,
damaged, improperly maintained or abused.
Wire rope failure may cause serious injury or death!
Protect yourself and others:
• ALWAYS INSPECT wire rope for, WEAR, DAMAGE or
ABUSE BEFORE USE.
• NEVER USE wire rope that is WORN-OUT, DAMAGED
or ABUSED.
• NEVER OVERLOAD a wire rope.
• INFORM YOURSELF: Read and understand
manufacturer’s literature or “Wire Rope and Wire
Rope Sling Safety Bulletin”.*
• REFER TO APPLICABLE CODES, STANDARDS and
REGULATIONS for INSPECTION REQUIREMENTS and
REMOVAL CRITERIA.*

NOT USE DIMENSIONAL DATA FOR
CONSTRUCTION PURPOSES.
Installation of the slide rail system should locate the pump
opposite the influent opening, preventing stagnate areas
where solids can settle.
NOTICE: GUIDE RAILS MUST BE PLUMB TO
FACILITATE PUMP(S) INSTALLATION
OR REMOVAL.
The containment area floor MUST be flat under the slide
rail base and have sufficient loading capacity to support
the entire weight of the assembly, including the slide rail
base, slide rail guide, pump and all assorted piping.
Prior to anchoring the slide rail base to the containment
area floor, ensure adequate clearance for pump(s) installation or removal AND for access doors.
NOTICE: MATERIAL SELECTION FOR
CONTAINMENT AREA EQUIPMENT
MUST BE COMPATIBLE WITH
ANTICIPATED FLUIDS AND SERVICE.

Slide Rail Systems – A10-30 and A10-40
The A10-30 system is designed for pumps with a 3",
125# ANSI flanged discharge. The A10-40 system
is designed for pumps with a 4", 125# ANSI flanged
discharge. Both 3" and 4" flanged pumps bolt directly to
their respective slide rail cast iron pump adapters. The
adapter, which slides up and down on the rails, mates
with the slide rail base and the integrally cast elbow
to provide a 4", 125# ANSI flanged discharge connection. See Figure 2 and Table 2 for the typical hardware
specifications, piping arrangements and basin attachment
dimensions.

to the slide rail cast iron pump adapter, mating with the
slide rail base and integrally cast elbow to provide a 6",
125# ANSI flanged discharge connection. See Figure 2
and Table 2 for the typical hardware specifications, piping arrangements and basin attachment dimensions.

OPERATION
WARNING
Hazardous voltage
can shock, burn or
cause death.
DO NOT LIFT, CARRY OR HANG
PUMP BY THE ELECTRICAL CABLE.
DAMAGE TO THE ELECTRICAL
CABLE CAN CAUSE SHOCK, BURNS
OR DEATH.
WORKING LOAD LIMIT
Cable A10-12, A10-20 and A10-2015
The working load limit is based on a load being uniformly applied in a straight line pull.
3
/16" 7x19 304SS Air Craft Cable WLL = 740 lbs.
Do not exceed safe working load limits.
WARNINGS
Raise and lower the pump in the containment area using
the lifting cable attached to the system's quick disconnect
for the A10-12, A10-2015 or A10-20, and to the pump's
lifting eye/strap for the A10-30, A10-40 and A10-60. DO
NOT use electrical cable and DO NOT damage the electrical cables while raising and lowering unit. A10-40 and
A10-60 units can be used in conjunction with a lifting
bail (part # ABAIL2).
To ensure full prime, lower the pump(s) on the slide rails
until fully submerged. Do not engage pump discharge to
the rail discharge connection. Jog the pump motor, one
to two seconds, to purge air from pump casing. Lower
the pump and engage with base.
While the slide rail system mating surfaces are self cleaning and contain no sealing devices, a check for leaks at
the initial installation and after each pump removal or
installation is recommended.
While manually controlling the pump and the containment area inflow, using each pump independently, pump
down the containment area.
Observe the pump, piping and slide rail base discharge
connections for leaks.
If leaks are present, reset the pump and slide rail mating surfaces and recheck. If this fails to stop the leak,
the pump should be removed and the necessary adjustments made to correct the leak. Leakage will cause longer
operation time, higher costs and may lead to premature
failure of slide rail base discharge connection.
Inspection
Wire ropes, cables and attachments must all be inspected
regularly for visible damage or distortion, elongation,
corrosion, cracks, nicks or abrasion which may cause
failure or reduce the original strength or ability of the
products to perform safely. User must determine whether
future use of the wire rope or cable would constitute a
safety hazard to life or property.
Safety
Refer to WARNING and CAUTION labels prior to use.
Keep out from under any raised loads and keep out of
the line of force of any load.
Do not use wire ropes or cables for any purpose other
than which it was intended.
AVOID SHOCK LOADS
Warnings
Failure to use wire ropes or cables properly may cause
loads to slip or fall.
Failure to read, understand and follow these instructions
may cause death or serious injury.
Do not exceed safe working load limits.
WARNING
Wire rope WILL FAIL if worn-out, overloaded, misused,
damaged, improperly maintained or abused.
Wire rope failure may cause serious injury or death!
