WARNING:
RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK - THIS PUMP IS SUPPLIED WITH A GROUNDING CONDUCTOR AND
GROUNDING-TYPE ATTACHMENT PLUG. TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, BE CERTAIN
THAT IT IS CONNECTED ONLY TO A PROPERLY GROUNDED, GROUNDING TYPE RECEPTACLE.
Electrical Safety
• Electrical wiring should be installed by a qualified electrician in accordance with all
applicable safety regulations. Incorrect wiring can lead to a pump malfunction, electrical
shock or fire.
• Pumps should operate on a designated, 110/120 volt circuit.
• Pump must be protected by a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI).
• Pump must be plugged into a standard, properly grounded, three pronged outlet.
Safety Instructions
• Do not lift, lower or handle the pump by pulling on the electrical cord. Make sure the
electrical cable does not become excessively bent or twisted and does not rub against a
structure in a way that might damage it. (Fig. 1)
• Always disconnect the power supply before doing any maintenance or placing your hands
into the water to which this pump is immersed. (Fig. 2)
• The submersible pump should not be used if the electrical supply cable is damaged in
any way. If a cable with damaged insulation is submerged in water, there is danger of
water seeping into the pump motor and causing a short. The electrical cable cannot be
replaced. If the cord is damaged, the pump should be discarded. Altering the electrical
cable in any way will void the warranty. (Fig. 3)
ATTENTION
Make sure the pump works at a proper water level. Do not
operate the pump without water. If this occurs, immediately turn
off the pump and check.
Operation
• TT-Series pumps are for use in water only. Water temperature should never exceed
95˚ F (35˚ C).
• TT-Series pumps must not be used to pump salt water, chlorine, sewage, flammable or
corrosive liquids, greases, oils or food waste.
• Pay careful attention to the water level while the pump is operating. The pump must be
fully submersed at all times of operation.
• Repeating cycles of stopping and restarting will damage the water pump. Do not continue
operation at low water level or while the inlet is clogged with debris. Not only will perfor-
mance suffer, but also such conditions may cause noise, heavy vibration, and pump failure.
• In case of excessive vibration, unusual noise or odor, turn off the power immediately and
consult your nearest dealer.
