GENERAL SAFETY INFORMATION
Electrically powered sump pumps normally give many
years of trouble-free service when correctly installed,
maintained, and used. However, unusual circumstances
(interruption of power to the pump, dirt/debris in the
sump, flooding that exceeds the pump's capacity, electri-
cal or mechanical failure in the pump, etc.) may prevent
your pump from functioning normally. To prevent possi-
ble water damage due to flooding, consult your dealer
about installing a high water alarm. See the
"Troubleshooting Chart" in this manual for information
about common sump pump problems and remedies.
For more information, see your dealer or call customer
service at 1-800-628-9439.
1. Know the pump application, limitations, and poten-
tial hazards.
2. Disconnect the power before servicing.
3. Release all the pressure within the system before ser-
vicing any component.
4. Drain all the water from system before servicing.
5. Secure the discharge line before starting the pump.
An unsecured discharge line will whip, possibly caus-
ing personal injury and/or property damage.
6. Check the hoses for a weak or worn condition before
each use, making certain that all connections are
secure.
7. Periodically inspect the system components. Keep
free of debris and foreign objects. Perform routine
maintenance as required.
8. Provide a means of pressure relief for pumps whose
discharge line can be shut-off or obstructed.
9. Personal Safety:
a. Wear safety glasses at all times when working with
pumps.
b. Keep the work area clean, uncluttered and properly
lighted – replace all unused tools and equipment.
c. Keep visitors at a safe distance from the work area.
d. Make the workshop child-proof – with padlocks,
master switches, and by removing starter keys.
10. When wiring an electrically driven pump, follow all
electrical and safety codes that apply.
11. This equipment is only for use on 115 volt (single
phase) and is equipped with an approved 3-conduc-
tor cord and 3-prong, grounding-type plug.
To reduce risk of electric shock, pull
plug before servicing. This pump has not been inves-
tigated for use in swimming pool areas. Pump is sup-
plied with a grounding conductor and grounding-type
attachment plug. Be sure it is connected only to a
properly grounded grounding-type receptacle.
Where a 2-prong wall receptacle is encountered, it
must be replaced with a properly grounded 3-prong
receptacle installed in accordance with codes and
ordinances that apply.
12. All wiring should be performed by a qualified
electrician.
