LIMITED WARRANTY
Manufacturer warrants, to the purchaser and subsequent owner during the
warranty period, every new product to be free from defects in material and
workmanship under normal use and service, when properly used and
maintained, for a period of one year from date of purchase by the end user, or 18
months from date of original manufacture of the product, whichever comes first.
Parts that fail within the warranty period, one year from date of purchase by the
end user, or 18 months from the date of original manufacture of the product,
whichever comes first, that inspections determine to be defective in material or
workmanship, will be repaired, replaced or remanufactured at Manufacturer's
option, provided however, that by so doing we will not be obligated to replace an
entire assembly, the entire mechanism or the complete unit. No allowance will be
made for shipping charges, damages, labor or other charges that may occur
due to product failure, repair or replacement.
This warranty does not apply to and there shall be no warranty for any material or
product that has been disassembled without prior approval of Manufacturer,
subjected to misuse, misapplication, neglect, alteration, accident or uncontrolled
act of nature; that has not been installed, operated or maintained in accordance
with Manufacturer's installation instructions; that has been exposed to outside
substances including but not limited to the following: sand, gravel, cement, mud,
tar, hydrocarbons, hydrocarbon derivatives (oil, gasoline, solvents, etc.), or other
abrasive or corrosive substances, wash towels or any other abusive entity, etc.
in all pumping applications. The warranty set out in the paragraph above is in
lieu of all other warranties expressed or implied; and we do not authorize any
representative or other person to assume for us any other liability in connection
with our products. Contact authorized distributors to obtain any needed repair or
replacement of part(s) or additional information pertaining to our warranty.
MANUFACTURER EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS LIABILITY FOR SPECIAL,
CONSEQUENTIAL OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES OR BREACH OF
EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED WARRANTY; AND ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY
OF FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND OF MERCHANTABILITY
SHALL BE LIMITED TO THE DURATION OF THE EXPRESSED WARRANTY.
Some jurisdictions do not allow limitations on the duration of an implied
warranty, so the above limitation may not apply to you. Some jurisdictions do not
allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so
the above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you.
This warranty gives you specific legal rights and you may also have other rights
which vary from jurisdiction to jurisdiction.
Pump should be checked frequently for debris and/or build up which may
interfere with the float “on” or “off” position. Repair and service should be
performed by an authorized Zoeller Company Representative only.
Do not operate a pump in an application where the Total Dynamic Head is
less than the minimum Total Dynamic Head listed on the Pump Performance
Curves.
For health reasons, do not unplug, turn off, or disable pump and use pump tank
system as a way to fill up a sink or laundry tray, etc.
Check to be sure your power source is capable of handling the voltage
requirements of the motor, as indicated on the pump name plate.
The installation of variable level float switches is the responsibility of the
installing party, and care should be taken that the tethered float switch will
not hang up on the pump apparatus or pit peculiarities and is secured so that
the pump will shut off. It is recommended to use rigid piping and fittings and
the pit be 45 cm (18”) or larger in diameter.
Vent hole. It is necessary that all submersible sump, effluent and sewage
pumps capable of handling various sizes of solid waste be of the bottom
intake design to reduce clogging and seal failures. If a check valve is
incorporated in the installation, a 5 mm (3/16") vent hole must be drilled
in the discharge pipe below the check valve and pit cover to purge the
unit of trapped air. Vent hole should be checked periodically for clogging.
The vent hole on a High Head application may cause too much turbulence.
You may not want to drill one. If you choose not to drill a vent hole, be sure
the pump case and impeller is covered with liquid before connecting the pipe
to the check valve. NOTE: THE HOLE MUST BE BELOW THE BASIN
COVER AND CLEANED PERIODICALLY. Water stream will be visible when
pump is operating.
