WARNING:
This unit is not waterproof or weatherproof and is not intended to be used in showers,

1.
Prime and run the pump:
Note:
The pump must be filled with water before operation. Running the pump dry will cause
damage to the shaft seal and will void the warranty.
a.
Remove the priming plug (A) and fill the
pump (C) with water. Wrap plug threads
with thread tape (sold separately), then
re-thread the plug into the priming port. All
connections must be air tight. A single leak
will prevent proper operation of the pump
and may cause the pump to run dry. This
will void the warranty.
b.
Insert the inlet hose (with strainer (D)
attached or a 3/4 in. foot valve) into the
water to be removed.
c.
Plug the power cord into a GFCI protected
electrical outlet. The pump will prime in a
few minutes depending on the suction line
length.
d.
To turn the pump off, unplug the power cord.
