Installation • Operation 5
7. Power Supply: Pump is designed for 115 V .,
60 Hz ., operation and requires a minimum
15 amp individual branch circuit . Both pump
and switch are supplied with 3-wire cord sets
with grounding-type plugs. Switch plug is
inserted directly into outlet and pump plug
inserts into opposite end of switch plug.
Risk of electric shock . Can
shock, burn or kill. Pump should always be
electrically grounded to a suitable electrical
ground such as a grounded water pipe or a
properly grounded metallic raceway, or ground
wire system. Do not cut off round ground pin.
8. If pump discharge line is exposed to outside
sub-freezing atmosphere, portion of line
exposed must be installed so any water
remaining in pipe will drain to the outfall
by gravity. Failure to do this can cause water
trapped in discharge to freeze which could
result in damage to pump.
9. After piping, check valve and float switch have
been installed, the unit is ready for operation.
10. Check the pump operation by filling sump with
water and observing pump operation through
one complete cycle.
Risk of flooding . Can cause
personal injury and/or property damage.
Failure to make this operational check may
lead to improper operation, premature failure,
and flooding.
Operation
Risk of electric shock . Can shock,
burn or kill. Do not handle a pump or pump
motor with wet hands or when standing on wet
or damp surface, or in water.
1. Shaft seal depends on water for lubrication.
Do not operate pump unless it is submerged
in water as seal may be damaged if allowed to
run dry.
2. Risk of sudden starts . Can cause
electrical shock and personal injury. Motor
is equipped with automatic reset thermal
protector. If temperature in motor should rise
unduly, switch will cut off all power before
damage can be done to motor. When motor
has cooled sufficiently, switch will reset
automatically and restart motor. If protector
trips repeatedly, pump should be removed and
checked as to cause of difficulty. Low voltage,
long extension cords, clogged impeller,
very low head or lift, or a plugged or frozen
discharge pipe, etc., could cause cycling.
3. Pump will not remove all water. If operating a
pump manually, and suddenly no water comes
out of the discharge hose, shut off the unit
immediately. The water level is probably very
low and the unit has broken prime.
Risk of electric shock . Can
shock, burn or kill. Before attempting to check
why unit has stopped operating, disconnect
power from unit.
