1.   Inspect your unit. Occasionally, products are damaged during shipment. If the unit is damaged, contact  your dealer before using.  

Do Not

 remove 

the test plugs from the pump.

2.  Carefully read the literature provided to familiarize yourself with specific details regarding installation and use. These materials should be retained 

for future reference. 

1.  To reduce the risk of electrical shock, a properly grounded receptacle of 

grounding type must be installed and protected by a ground fault circuit 

interrupter (GFCI) and in accordance with National Electrical Code and 
local codes. 

(SEE WARNING BELoW). 

2.  Make certain that the receptacle is within the reach of the pump’s power 

supply cord. DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD.  Extension cords 

that are too long or too light do not deliver sufficient voltage to the pump 

motor. But more important, they could present a safety hazard if the 

insulation were to become damaged or the connection end were to fall 
into the sump. 

3.  Testing for Ground. 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, call a qualified electrician. 

4.  For Added Safety. Pump must be connected to a 3-prong grounded 

outlet interrupter device (ground fault circuit interrupter).
