SAFETY GUIDELINES
UNPACKING
• Upon receiving the pump, it should be inspected for damage or shortages. If damage has
occurred, file a claim immediately with the carrier that delivered the pump. If the manual is
removed from the packaging, do not lose or misplace.
STORAGE
• Short Term—Pumps are manufactured for efficient performance following short, inoperative
periods in storage. For best results, pumps can be retained in storage, as factory assembled, in
a dry atmosphere with constant temperatures for up to six (6) months.
• Long Term—For storage of six (6) months, to twenty-four (24) months, the units should be
stored in a temperature-controlled area: a roofed-over, walled enclosure that provides protection
from the elements (rain, snow, wind-blown, dust, etc.), and where the temperature can be
maintained between 4 and 40°C (40 and 120°F). If extended high humidity is expected to be
a problem, all exposed parts should be inspected before storage and all surfaces that have
the paint scratched, damaged, or worn should be recoated with a water-based, air-dry enamel
paint. All surfaces should then be sprayed with a rust-inhibiting oil.
• Pump should be stored in its original shipping container. On initial start up, rotate impeller by
hand to assure seal and impeller rotate freely.
INSTALLATION
DISCHARGE
• Please see the step 2 of page 4 for details.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
• Pump comes with diaphragm switch.
• Power Cable—The cord assembly mounted to the pump must not be modified in any way. Any
splice between the pump and the control panel must be made in accordance with all applicable
electric codes. It is recommended that a junction box, if used, be mounted outside the sump or
be of at least NEMA 4 construction if located within the wet wall. Do not use the power cable to
lift pump.
WARNING!
• Protect the electrical cord from sharp objects, hot surfaces, oil, and chemicals. Avoid kinking the cord. Do not use
damaged or worn cords.
• Failure to comply with the instructions and designed operation of this unit may void the warranty. Attempting to use a
damaged pump can result in property damage, serious personal injury and/or death.
