• This pump has been evaluated for use with water only. Pump should only be used with liquids com-
patible with pump component materials. If the pump is used with liquids incompatible with the
pump components, the liquid can cause failure to the electrical insulation system resulting in electri-
cal shock.
• An inoperative or malfunctioning pump could lead to flooding, resulting in personal injury or prop-
erty damage.

leaking pump due to power outages, discharge line blockage, or any other reason, an automatic
back-up system and/or an alarm should be installed.
• Do not run the pump dry. If run dry, the surface temperature of the pump will rise to a high tempera-
ture that could cause skin burns if touched, and will cause serious damage to the pump.
• Do not oil the motor. The pump's motor housing is sealed, and contains a high-grade dielectric oil
for heat transfer and lifetime lubrication. Use of other oils could cause serious electric shock and/or
permanent damage to the pump.
