TYPICAL SUMP/DEWATERING RECOMMENDED INSTALLATION
1) Electrical wiring must be in accordance with the National Electrical Code and all other appli-
cable state and local electrical requirements.
2) Install proper Zoeller Unicheck (combination check valve and union) preferably just above the
sump pit to allow easy removal of the pump for cleaning or repair.
3) Minimum pit size recommended is 18" diameter and 22" deep.
4) Locate Float Rod Guide about 6” below motor. Clamp guide to column with screw provided.
DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN!
Risk of flooding.
Be sure that float rod is vertical and can move up and down
freely. If float is angled or binds, pump may not start, allowing flooding to occur.
5) Screw float onto threaded end of rod. Threads on rod will cut threads into corrosion resistant
float.
6) Insert end of float rod up through eye of rod guide.
7) Slide one rod stop on float rod before passing rod through eye of pump switch. Slide 2nd rod
stop on rod after passing through eye of switch. Position 2nd rod stop flush with top of rod.
8) Position lower rod stop to within 8” of switch lever arm. With lower rod stop in this position,
pump will automatically cycle at approximately 2-1/2” off and 10-12” on. For faster cycling,
move lower rod stop closer to switch lever arm.
9) Thread pipe in discharge of pump. Use care not to cross thread or strip the threads. Use a
full-size discharge pipe.
10) Clean basin free of debris after installation.
11) Install blocks or bricks under pump to provide a settling basin.
12) Place pump in center of sump pit.
13) Securely tape or clamp power cord to discharge pipe clear of float mechanism.
14) Check for proper ON-OFF switch operation by running water into the sump pit.
15) All installations require a proper basin cover to prevent debris from falling into the basin and to
minimize accidental injury.
