Please Read This Before Installing Or Operating Pump.
This information is provided for SAFETY and to PREVENT
EQUIPMENT PROBLEMS . To help recognize this information,
observe the following symbols:
IMPORTANT! Warns about hazards that can result
in personal injury orIndicates factors concerned with
assembly, installation, operation, or maintenance which
could result in damage to the machine or equipment if
ignored.
CAUTION ! Warns about hazards that can or will cause minor
personal injury or property damage if ignored. Used with symbols
below.
WARNING ! Warns about hazards that can or will cause serious
personal injury, death, or major property damage if ignored. Used
with symbols below.
Only qualified personnel should install, operate and repair pump.
Any wiring of pumps should be performed by a qualified electrician.
WARNING! - To reduce risk of electrical shock, pumps and
control panels must be properly grounded in accordance
with the National Electric Code (NEC) or the Canadian
Electrical Code (CEC) and all applicable state, province,
local codes and ordinances.
WARNING! - To reduce risk of electrical shock, always
disconnect the pump from the power source before
handling or servicing. Lock out power and tag.
Prevent large articles of clothing, large amounts of chemicals, other
materials or substances such as are uncommon in domestic sewage
from entering the system.
Minimize the amount of cooking grease entering the system.
DO NOT leave pump cover off the basin, except while servicing,
to prevent entrance of foreign materials such as rocks, metal, soil,
animals or humans.
Prevent infiltration or direct flow of rain or run-off water into the pump
basin to minimize pump cycling. This will prevent overloading the
treatment facility, and will facilitate swift transportation of sewage.
During power black-outs, minimize water consumption at the
home(s) to prevent sewage from backing up into the house.
Keep the control panel locked or confined to prevent unauthorized
access to it.
If the pump is idle for long periods of time, it is advisable to start the
pump occasionally by adding water to the basin.
Always keep the shut-off valve completely open when system is
in operation (unless advised otherwise by the proper authorities).
Before removing the pump from the basin, be sure to close the shut-
off valve. (This prevents backflow from the pressure sewer.)
CAUTION! Pumps build up heat and pressure
during operation-allow time for pumps to cool
before handling or servicing.
WARNING! - DO NOT pump hazardous materials
(flammable, caustic, etc.) unless the pump is specifically
designed and designated to handle them.
WARNING! - DO NOT wear loose clothing that may
become entangled in the impeller or other moving parts.
WARNING! - Keep clear of suction and discharge
openings. DO NOT insert fingers in pump with power
connected.
Always wear appropriate safety gear, such as safety
glasses, when working on pump or piping.
Make sure lifting handles are securely fastened each time before
lifting. Do not operate pump without safety devices in place. Always
replace safety devices that have been removed during service or
repair.
Do not exceed manufacturers recommendation for maximum
performance, as this could cause the motor to overheat.
Cable should be protected at all times to avoid punctures,
cut, bruises and abrasions - inspect frequently.
Never handle connected power cords with wet hands.
To reduce risk of electrical shock, all wiring and junction
connections should be made per the NEC or CEC and
applicable state or province and local codes. Requirements
may vary depending on usage and location.
Do not remove cord and strain relief. Do not connect
conduit to pump.
Products Returned Must Be Cleaned, Sanitized, Or
Decontaminated As Necessary Prior To Shipment, To
Insure That Employees Will Not Be Exposed To Health
Hazards In Handling Said Material. All Applicable Laws
And Regulations Shall Apply.
Bronze/brass and bronze/brass fitted pumps may contain
lead levels higher than considered safe for potable
water systems. Lead is known to cause cancer and birth
defects or other reproductive harm. Various government
agencies have determined that leaded copper alloys
should not be used in potable water applications. For
non-leaded copper alloy materials of construction, please
contact factory.
