WARNING
 Do not pump flammable or explosive liquids such as oil, gasoline, kerosene, ethanol, etc.
Do not use in the presence of flammable or explosive vapors. Using this pump with or
near flammable liquids can cause explosion or fire, resulting in serious personal injury
and/or property damage.
 Always disconnect the pump from its power source before installing, inspecting, maintaining, or
repairing.
 Do not stand in water when the pump is connected.
 Do not touch the pump housing while it is operating, as the pump may be HOT and can cause
serious skin burns.
 Do not disassemble the motor housing. The motor has NO repairable internal parts, and
disassembling may cause oil leakage or dangerous electrical wiring issues.
CAUTION
 This pump is designed for home sump applications. The pump is equipped with a 3-prong
grounding-type power cord. The ball bearings on the motor shafts never need to be lubricated.
 This pump is made of high-strength, corrosion-resistant materials. It will provide trouble-free
service for a long time when properly installed, maintained, and used. However, inadequate
electrical power to the pump, dirt, or blockage by ice or debris may cause the pump to fail,
eventually bringing about additional water damage. To minimize the potential for water damage
due to pump failure, please carefully read the manual and follow the instructions regarding
common pump problems and remedies or call 1-866-994-4148.
 This pump has not been tested or approved for use in swimming pools or in salt-water marine
areas. It is also not engineered to be run continuously as a "fountain" or "waterfall" pump.
Because this pump has an oil-filled motor, it should NOT be used in water containing fish. Pump
only water with this pump.
 For safety, the pump motor has an automatic resetting thermal protector that automatically will
turn off the pump if it becomes too hot. Overuse of this feature will damage the pump and will
void the warranty.
 Once the thermal protector detects that the pump has cooled to a safe temperature, it will allow
the pump to operate normally. If the pump is plugged in, it may restart unexpectedly.
