This product requires a separate, properly fused and
grounded branch circuit, sized for the voltage and amperage
requirements of the pump, as noted on the nameplate.
Overloaded branch circuit wires will get very hot and can
catch on fire. When used, electrical outlets shall be simplex of
the appropriate rating.
Sewage and effluent systems produce and may contain
flammable and explosive gases. Prevent introduction of
foreign objects into basin as sparks could ignite these gases.
Exercise caution using tools and do not use electronic devices
or have live, exposed electrical circuits in or around basins,
open covers and vents.
Additional Warning for Non-Hazardous Locations
These pumps are not to be installed in locations classified as
hazardous in accordance with the National Electric Code
ANSI/NFPA 70.
RISK OF SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH
Energizing the control panel or breaker for the first time is
potentially dangerous. Licensed electrical personnel should
be present when the panel or breaker is energized for the first
time. If faults caused by damage or poor installation practices
have not been detected, serious damage, injury or death can
result when power is applied.
Do not modify the pump/pump system in any way.
Modifications may affect seals, change the electrical loading
of the pump, or damage the pump and its components.
All pump/pump system installations shall be in compliance
with all applicable Federal, State, and Local codes and
ordinances.
Do not allow children to play with the pump system.
Do not allow any person who is unqualified to have contact
with this pump system. Any person who is unaware of the
dangers of this pump system, or has not read this manual, can
easily be injured by the pump system.
In 200/230V installations, one side of the line going to the
pump is always "hot", whether the float switch is on or off. To
avoid hazards, install a double pole disconnect near the pump
installation.
Vent basin in accordance with local code. Proper venting of
sewer and effluent gases alleviates poisonous gas buildup
and reduces the risk of explosion and fire from these
flammable gases.
Wear adequate Personal Protective Equipment when working
on pumps or piping that have been exposed to wastewater.
Sump and sewage pumps often handle materials that can
transmit illness or disease upon contact with skin and other
tissues.
Do not enter a pump basin after it has been used. Sewage and
effluent can emit several gases that are poisonous.
Keep clear of suction and discharge openings. To prevent
injury, never insert fingers into pump while it is connected to
a power source.
This product contains chemicals known to the State of
California to cause cancer and birth defects or other
reproductive harm. www.p65warnings.ca.gov.
Do not remove any tags or labels from the pump or its cord.
