G INTRODUCTION
This instruction sheet will provide you with information required to
safely own and operate Little Giant 6E Series pumps. The pump
you have purchased is a submersible effluent pump for use in
basins or lift stations and suitable for pumping sewage, effluent,
wastewater and other non-explosive, non-corrosive liquids with up
to 1/2" spherical solids.
This instruction sheet covers the standard models in this pump
series. This form is applicable to other models in this series not
listed by catalog number in the replacement parts list section of
this pamphlet. If the catalog number of your pump is not listed in
the replacement parts section, then caution should be exercised
when ordering replacement parts. Always give the catalog number
of your pump when ordering replacement parts.
The Little Giant unit you have purchased is of the highest quality
workmanship and material. It has been engineered to give you
long and trouble-free service.
The Little Giant pumps are carefully packaged, inspected and tested
to insure safe operation and delivery. When you receive your pump,
examine it carefully to determine that there are no broken or damaged
parts that may have occurred during shipment. If damage has
occurred, make notation and notify the firm that you purchased
the pump from. They will assist you in replacement or repair, if
required.
READ INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY BEFORE ATTEMPTING
TO INSTALL, OPERATE OR SERVICE THE LITTLE GIANT
PUMP. KNOW THE PUMP APPLICATION, LIMITATIONS, AND
POTENTIAL HAZARDS. PROTECT YOURSELF AND OTHERS BY
OBSERVING ALL SAFETY INFORMATION. FAILURE TO COMPLY
WITH INSTRUCTIONS COULD RESULT IN PERSONAL INJURY
AND/OR PROPERTY DAMAGE! RETAIN INSTRUCTIONS FOR
FUTURE REFERENCE.
SAFETY GUIDELINES
1. Make certain pump is disconnected from power source before
attempting to service or remove any component.
2. Do not use to pump flammable or explosive fluids such as
gasoline, fuel oil, kerosene, etc. DO NOT use in explosive
atmospheres or hazardous locations as classified by NEC,
ANSI/NFPAT. Pump should be used with liquids compatible
with pump component materials.
3. Do not handle the pump with wet hands or when standing on
a wet or damp surface or in water.
4. Do not pull the pump out of the water by the power cord when
the pump is operating or connected to power source.
5. This pump is supplied with a grounding conductor and/or
grounding type attachment plug. To reduce the risk of electrical
shock, be certain that it is connected to a properly grounded
grounding type receptacle.
6. The National Electric Code requires a ground fault circuit
interrupter (GFCI) be installed in the branch circuit supplying
fountain equipment, pools, etc.

7. In any installation where property damage and/or personal
injury might result from an inoperative or leaking pump due to
power outages, discharge line blockage, or any other reason,
a backup system(s) and/or alarm should be used.
8. Support pump and piping when assembling and when installed.
Failure to do so may cause piping to break, pump to fail,
motor bearing failures, etc.
9. This pump's motor housing is filled with a dielectric oil for
motor heat transfer and lifetime lubrication of the bearings.
This oil is non-toxic to aquatic life. However, suffocation can
occur if oil is left on the water surface. If oil escapes the motor
housing it can be removed from the surface quickly by placing
newspapers on the water surface to soak up the oil.
10. The pump motor is equipped with an automatic resetting thermal
protector and may restart unexpectedly. Protector tripping is
an indication of motor overloading as a result of excessively high
or low voltage, inadequate wiring, incorrect motor connections,
or a defective motor or pump.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
1. Check the pump label for proper voltage required. Do not
connect to voltage other than that shown.
2. If pump is supplied with a 3-prong electrical plug, the third
prong is to ground the pump to prevent possible electrical
shock hazard. DO NOT REMOVE the third prong from the
plug. A separate branch circuit is recommended.
