NOTE: Do not reduce size of discharge pipe or hose below 1-1/4 in. diameter. If discharge is too small, pump will
overheat and fail prematurely. This pump is designed for use in a residential sump only. Only pump water with this
pump.
INSTALLATION
1. Install the sump pump in a sump pit with a minimum diameter of 10 in. (254 mm).The sump depth should be
minimum 14 in. (356 mm) . Construct the sump pit of tile, concrete, steel or plastic. Check the local codes for
approved materials and for proper installation.
2. Install the pump in a pit so that the switch operating mechanism has maximum possible clearance.
3. The pump should not be installed on clay, earth or sand surface. Clean the sump pit of small stones and gravel
which could clog the pump. Keep the pump inlet screen clear.
4. Insert rigid plastic pipe into the quick connector. Hand tighten the knurling nut of the quick connector as tight as
possible.
NOTICE: Do not use ordinary pipe joint compound on plastic pipe. Pipe joint compound can attack plastics and
damage the pump.
CAUTION: Risk of flooding. If a flexible discharge hose is used, make sure the pump is secure in the sump to
prevent movement. Failure to secure the pump may allow pump movement, switch interference and prevent the
pump from starting or stopping.
5. To reduce motor noise and vibration, a short length of rubber hose (e.g. radiator hose) can be connected into the
discharge line near the pump using suitable clamps.
6. Install an in-line check valve to prevent backward flow through the pump when the pump shuts off.
NOTICE: If your check valve is not equipped with an air bleed hole to prevent air locking pump, drill a 1/8"(3.2mm)
hole in discharge pipe about 1"-2"(2.5 -5.1cm) above quick connector. The hole must be in the sump.
7. Power Supply: Pump is designed for 115V, 60Hz, operation and requires a minimum 15 amp individual branch
circuit. The pump is supplied with a 3-wire cord set with grounding-type plug. Do not modify cord or plug. Plug the
power into a 115V GFCI power outlet.
