PERFORMANCE
Your pump is designed to effectively pump all clear storm and drain
waters. Although it will usually pass small particles suspended in
water; grass, heavy mud, sand or pea gravel can clog the pump
and reduce pump performance. This can usually be cleaned out by
backflushing with a garden hose through the discharge. The normal
performance that can be expected is as follows:

PREINSTALLATION CHECKLIST - ALL INSTALLATIONS
1. Inspect your pump. Occasionally, products are damaged during shipment. If the unit is damaged, contact your dealer before
using. DO NOT remove the test plug in the cover.
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. Make sure there is a properly installed ground fault circuit
interrupter (GFCI) protected circuit available. All pumps are
furnished with provisions for proper grounding to help protect you
against the possibility of electrical shock.
2. Make certain that the ground fault 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 ends were to fall into water.
3. 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.
4. 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 licensed electrician.
5. Installation and checking of electrical circuits and hardware
should only be performed by a qualified licensed electrician.
6. FOR YOUR PROTECTION, ALWAYS DISCONNECT PUMP
FROM ITS POWER SOURCE BEFORE HANDLING.
7. 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. The 3-prong plug must be inserted in a mating 3-prong
fault interrupter receptacle. If the installation does not have such
a receptacle, it must be changed to the proper type, wired, and
grounded in accordance with the National Electrical Code and all
applicable local codes and ordinances.
8. Risk of electric shock. This pump has not been tested for use in
swimming pool or marine areas.
9. According to the state of California (Prop 65), this product
contains chemicals known to the state of California to cause
cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm.
