SEE BELOW FOR LIST OF CAUTIONS
1.
This pump is designed for handling clear water. Do not use in septic tanks
to pump effluent or sewage pits to pump sewage.
2.
Repair and service of your backup system should be performed by an
authorized service station.
3.
The installation of this backup pump requires the use of a variable level
float switch for operation. It is the responsibility of the installing party, to
ensure that the float switch will not hang up on the pump apparatus or
pit peculiarities and is secured so the pump will turn "on" and "off". It is
recommended that the pit be 18" in diameter or larger to accommodate both
a primary and a backup pump.
4.
Check the installation of the primary and backup pump floats to ensure
that both move freely and are not being encroached upon where the float
cannot move. Adequate space between the floats must be maintained.
5.
The pump should be manually activated once a month by lifting the float
rod. Let the pump run for at least 15 seconds to prevent the pump from
building up calcium deposits and debris, which could harm the pump.
