2 . Disassembly of the motor prior to
expiration of warranty will void the
warranty. If repairs are required,
see troubleshooting chart.
3 . Inlet should be kept clean and free
of all foreign objects and inspect
annually. A clogged inlet will
damage pump.
4 . Pump should be checked monthly
for proper operation. Pump can be
checked for proper operation by
briefly removing pump power cord
from the back of the water sensor
plug and inserting directly into the
M a i n t e n a n c e
Always disconnect
the electrical supply
before attempting to install, service,
relocate or perform any maintenance.
If the power source is out of sight, lock
and tag in the open (off) position to
prevent unexpected power application.
Failure to do so could result in fatal
electrical shock. Only qualified
electricians should repair this unit.
Improper repair could result in fatal
electrical shock.
1 . Let the pump cool for a minimum of
two hours before servicing because
the pump contains hot oil under
pressure and the motor is hot.

grounded outlet. In this condition,
the pump will run continuously.
Once pump operation is verified,
replace pump power cord into the
back of the water sensor plug (see
Figure 2).
5 . Wipe water sensor surface regularly
to prevent silt or other coatings
from building up on sensor face
(see Figure 2).
This pump contains
dielectric oil for
cooling. This oil can be harmful to the
environment. Check the state
environmental laws before disposing
this oil.

Troubleshooting Chart
Symptom
Possible Cause(s)
Corrective Action
Pump will not start or
run
Pump starts and stops
too often
Pump will not shut
off or thermal
protector turns off
Pump operates but
delivers little or no
water
Gurgling sound from
pump at end of cycle
1. Blown fuse
2. Low line voltage
3. Defective motor
4. Impeller
1. Backflow of water from
piping
2. Incoming water is draining
on sensor face
1. Obstacle in piping
2. Low Line Voltage
3. Too many appliances on
circuit
4. Dirty water sensor
5. Incoming water is draining
on sensor face
1. Plugged impeller
2. Check valve installed
backwards
3. Pump airlocked
1. Air injested into pump
2. Time required for
pumping is less than 4
seconds
1. If blown, replace with proper sized fuse or reset breaker
2. If voltage is under 108 volts, check wiring size
3. Replace pump
4. If impeller will not turn, remove housing and remove
blockage
1. Install or replace check valve
2. Position pump switch away from the inlet so switch is clear
from incoming water (see Figure 1)
1. Remove pump and clean pump and piping
2. If voltage is under 108 volts, check wiring size
3. Install pump on dedicated circuit.
IMPORTANT:
Do not use
extension cord to power pump.
4. Clean sensor face (see Figure 2)
5. Position pump switch away from the inlet so switch is clear
from incoming water (see Figure 1)
1. Clean out impeller
2. Reverse position of check valve
3. Drill 1/8” hole in discharge line between pump and check
valve
1. Wipe off surface of sensor (see Figure 2)
2. Additional run time will not damage pump
