WARNING
a qualified technician. Always follow the
National Electrical Code (NEC), or the Canadian Electri-
cal Code, as well as all local, state and provincial codes.
Code questions should be directed to your local electri-
cal inspector. Failure to follow electrical codes and OSHA
safety standards may result in personal injury or equip-
ment damage. Failure to follow manufacturer's installa-
tion instructions may result in electrical shock, fire hazard,
personal injury or death, damaged equipment, provide
unsatisfactory performance, and may void manufacturer's
warranty.
Standard units are not designed for use
WARNING
in swimming pools, open bodies of water,
hazardous liquids, or where flammable gases exist. These
fluids and gases may be present in containment areas.
Tank or wetwell must be vented per local codes.
Only pumps specifically Listed for Class 1, Division 1 are
allowable in hazardous liquids and where flammable
gases may exist. See specific pump catalog bulletins or
pump nameplate for all agency Listings.
Disconnect and lockout electrical power
WARNING
before installing or servicing any electrical
equipment. Many pumps are equipped with automatic
thermal overload protection which may allow an over-
heated pump to restart unexpectedly.

PRE-INSTALLATION CHECKS

Open all cartons and inspect for shipping damage.
Report any damage to your supplier or shipping carrier
immediately.
Important: Always verify that the pump nameplate
Amps, Voltage, Phase, and HP ratings match your control
panel and power supply.
Many of our sewage pumps are oil-filled. If there are any
signs of oil leakage or if the unit has been stored for an
extended period check the oil level in the motor dome
and the seal housing, if so equipped.
Check the motor cover oil level through the pipe plug on
top of the unit. The motor chamber oil should just cover
the motor. Do not overfill, leave room for expansion!
If low, refill with an ASTM 150 turbine oil. Replace the plug.
Oil is available in 5 gallon cans through our distributors.
You can also source oil locally at motor repair shops.
Typical oil brands are: Shell Turbo 32, Sunoco Sunvis 932,
Texaco Regal R&O 32, Exxon Nuto 32 and Mobil DTE
Light.
Check the strain relief nut on power cable strain assem-
blies. Power cables should be torqued to 75 in. lbs. for
#16 cables and 80 in. lbs. for all other cable assemblies.
Warranty does not cover damage caused by connecting
pumps and controls to an incorrect power source (volt-
age/phase supply).
Record the model numbers and serial numbers from the
pumps and control panel on the front of this instruction
manual for future reference. Give it to the owner or affix it
to the control panel when finished with the installation.

LIFTING OF PUMP

DO NOT LIFT, CARRY OR HANG
WARNING
PUMP BY THE ELECTRICAL
CABLES. DAMAGE TO THE
ELECTRICAL CABLES CAN CAUSE
SHOCK, BURNS OR DEATH.
Hazardous voltage
can shock, burn or
cause death.
Lift the pump with an adequately sized chain or cable at-
tached to the lifting eye bolt. DO NOT damage electrical
and sensor cables while raising and lowering unit.
OPTIONAL GUIDE RAIL
OR LIFT-OUT SYSTEM
In many effluent and sewage basins or lift stations it is
advisable to install the pump on a guide rail system
or on a lift-out adapter to facilitate installation and
removal for inspection and/or service. Most codes do
not allow personnel to enter a wetwell without the cor-
rect protective equipment and training. Guide rails are
designed to allow easy removal of the pump without
the need for entry into the wetwell or need to disturb
piping. The guide rail or lift-out adapter should locate
the pump opposite the influent opening preventing
stagnate areas where solids can settle. The basin or
pit must be capable of supporting the weight of the
pump and guide rail. The pit floor must be flat.
NOTICE: FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS THAT ARE
PROVIDED WITH THE GUIDE RAIL ASSEMBLY.
