If cables are
reversed, damage to
the control box or battery could result
and will void the warranty.
5.
Place battery box within six feet of
the sump and a 115 VAC separately
fused outlet. The outlet must
be protected by a ground fault
circuit interrupter (GFCI). The area
must also be clean, dry and well-
ventilated.
6.
Plug the fl oat switch, pump and
charger into the control box. The
connections are marked on the
control box.

7. Protect electrical cord from sharp
objects, hot surfaces, oil and
chemicals. Avoid kinking the
cord and replace damaged cords
immediately.
8. A sump pit cover must be installed
to prevent debris from clogging or
damaging the pump.
Operation - Primary Pump
Always
disconnect the power source
before attempting to install,
service, relocate or maintain
the pump. Never touch sump
pump, pump motor, water or discharge
piping when pump is connected to
electrical power. Never handle a pump
or pump motor with wet hands or when
standing on wet or damp surface or in
water. Fatal electrical shock could occur.
1. A ground fault circuit interrupter
(GFCI) is required (see Figure 2).
Risk
of
electrical shock! This pump
is supplied with a grounding
conductor and grounding
type attachment plug. Use a
grounded receptacle to reduce the risk
of fatal electrical shock.
Never cut off the round grounding
prong. Cutting the cord or plug will
void the warranty and make the pump
inoperable.
2. The primary pump is only for use
on 120 volt (single phase), 60 hz,
15 amp service and is equipped
with a 3-conductor cord and
3-prong, grounding type plug.
Insert the switch cord plug directly
into a 120-volt outlet.
3. Insert the pump power cord plug
directly into the back of the water
sensor cord plug.
4. Fill sump with water. The pump will
start automatically when the water
is about 1-1/2 inches from the top
of the switch. The pump will recycle
thereafter as required.
• Sump pump will run a minimum
of 4 seconds, to a maximum of
16 before stopping.
• Sump pump run time will be
determined by the sump pit size
and water fl ow rate into the
sump pit.
• Under fl ooding conditions,
the sump pump will stop for 1
second, every 16 seconds, and
automatically turn back on.
5. Do not operate the pump unless it
is submerged in water. Dry running
causes pump failure.
