age, and/or serious personal injury.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS!

Work Area

DANGER
!
• Do not operate pump in explosive atmospheres,
such as in the presence of flammable liquids,
gases, or dust. Pump motors create sparks which
may ignite the dust or fumes.
• Keep by-standers, children, and visitors away
while installing pump. Distractions can result in
mistakes.

Electrical Safety

WARNING
!
• This pump must be plugged into an outlet,
properly installed, and grounded in accordance
with all applicable codes and ordinances. Never
remove the grounding prong or modify the plug
in any way.
Do not use any adapter plugs.
Check with a qualified electrician if you are not
sure the outlet is grounded. If the pump should
electrically malfunction or break down, grounding
provides a low resistance path to carry electricity
away from the user.
• Electrical wiring must be performed by a quali-
fied electrician. Improper wiring could result in
fatal electrical shock.

• Do not abuse cord. Never use the cord to carry
the pump or pull the plug from an outlet. Keep
cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges, or mov-
ing parts. Replace damaged cords immediate-
ly. Damaged cords increase the risk of electrical
shock.

• Before using, test the Ground Fault Circuit
Interrupter (GFCI) to insure it is operating cor-
rectly. A GFCI reduces the risk of electrical shock.
• Do not use an extension cord. This increases the
risk of electrical shock. If necessary, install a prop-
erly grounded outlet closer to the pump.

Personal Safety

WARNING
!
• Stay alert, watch what you are doing, and use
common sense when installing this pump. Do
not attempt to install this pump while tired or
under the influence of drugs, alcohol or med-
ications. A moment of inattention may result in
serious personal injury.
• Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or
jewelry. Contain long hair. Keep your hair,
clothing, and gloves away from moving parts.
Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair can be caught
in moving parts.
• Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and bal-
ance at all times. Proper footing and balance
enables better control in unexpected situations.
• Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protec-
tion. Dust mask, non-skid safety shoes and hard
hat must be used for appropriate conditions.

Service

WARNING
!
• Pump service must be performed only by qual-
ified repair personnel. Service or maintenance
performed by unqualified repair personnel could
result in injury and may void the warranty.
