Please read and understand this entire manual before attempting to assemble, operate, or install the product. 

•  NOTE

: Pumps with the “UL” mark and pumps with the “US” mark are tested to UL Standard UL778. CSA 

certified pumps are certified to CSA Standard C22.2 No. 108. (CUS.)

•  ELECTRICAL SHOCK ALERT. 

 

To reduce the risk of electric shock, install only a circuit protected by a ground-fault circuit-interruptor (GFCI). 

Make certain that the ground fault receptacle is within the reach of the pump’s power supply cord. DO NOT 

USE AN EXTENSION CORD. 

•  ELECTRICAL SHOCK ALERT.

  

Follow all local electrical and safety codes, as well as the National Electrical Code (NEC) and the 

Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA).

•  ELECTRICAL SHOCK ALERT.

  

Do not kink power cable, and never allow the cable to come in contact with oil, grease, hot surfaces, 

chemicals, or sharp objects. Replace damaged or worn wiring cord immediately.

•  ELECTRICAL SHOCK ALERT.

 

As a safety measure, each electrical outlet should be checked for ground using an Underwriters Laboratory 

Listed circuit analyzer, which will indicate if the power, neutral, and ground wires are correctly connected to 

your outlet. If they are not, contact a licensed electrician.   

•  ELECTRICAL SHOCK ALERT.

 

These pumps are supplied with a 3-prong grounded plug to help protect you against the possibility of 

electrical shock. DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES REMOVE THE GROUND PIN.

•  ELECTRICAL SHOCK ALERT.

 

To reduce the risk of electric shock, install only a circuit protected by a ground-fault circuit-interruptor (GFCI).

•  ELECTRICAL SHOCK ALERT.

 

Make sure the pump electrical supply circuit is equipped with fuses or circuit breakers of proper capacity.  A 

separate branch circuit is recommended, sized according the National Electrical Code for the current shown 

on the pump name plate.

•  CHEMICAL ALERT.

SAFETY INFORMATION

DANGER

•  FIRE/EXPLOSION HAZARD.

 

Do not pump flammable or explosive fluids such as gasoline, fuel oil, kerosene, etc. Do not use in a 

flammable and/or explosive atmosphere. Failure to follow these warnings could result in death or serious 

injury and/or property damage.

•  ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD. 

Always disconnect power source before performing any work on or near the motor or its connected load.  

If the power disconnect point is out-of-sight, lock it in the open position and tag it to prevent unexpected 

application of power.  Failure to do so could result in fatal electrical shock.

•  ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD. 

Do not handle the pump with wet hands or when standing in water, as fatal electrical shock could occur.  

Disconnect main power before handling unit for ANY REASON!
