Installation 3
12. This equipment is only for use on 115
volt (single phase) and is equipped
with an approved 3-conductor cord and
3-prong, grounding-type plug.
Electrical Shock Hazard. Can
burn or kill. To reduce risk of electric
shock, pull plug before servicing. This pump
has not been investigated for use in
swimming pool areas. Pump is supplied
with a grounding conductor and grounding-
type attachment plug. Be sure it is
connected only to a properly grounded
grounding-type receptacle.
Where a 2-prong wall receptacle is
encountered, it must be replaced with
properly grounded 3-prong receptacle
installed in accordance with codes and
ordinances that apply.
13. All wiring should be performed by a
qualified electrician.
14. Make certain power source conforms to
requirements of your equipment.
15. Protect electrical cord from sharp objects,
hot surfaces, oil, and chemicals. Avoid
kinking cord. Replace or repair damaged or
worn cords immediately.
16. Do not touch an operating motor. Motors
can operate at high temperatures.
17. Do not handle pump or pump motor with
wet hands or when standing on wet or
damp surface, or in water.
Hazardous voltage can shock,
burn or kill. If your basement has water or
moisture on floor, do not walk on wet area
until all power has been turned off. If shut-
off box is in basement, call electric
company or hydro authority to shut-off
service to house, or call your local fire
department for instructions. Remove pump
and repair or re place. Failure to follow this
warning can result in fatal electrical shock.
Do not lift pump by power cord.
INSTALLATION
1. Install pump in sump pit with minimum
diameter of 11” (28 cm). Sump depth should
be 15”
(39 cm). Construct sump pit of tile,
concrete, steel or plastic. Check local codes
for approved materials and for proper
installation.
2. Install pump in pit so that switch operating
mechanism has maximum possible
clearance. Adjust the float stop on the rod
to adjust the pump “ON” point. “OFF” point
is factory preset.
3. Pump should not be installed on clay, earth
or sand surfaces. Clean sump pit of small
stones and gravel which could clog pump.
Keep pump inlet screen clear.
NOTICE: Do not use ordinary pipe joint
compound on plastic pipe. Pipe joint
compound can attack plastics.
4. Install discharge plumbing. Use rigid plastic
pipe and wrap threads with PTFE pipe
thread sealant tape. Screw pipe into pump
hand tight plus 1-1/2 turns.
Risk of flooding. If a flexible
discharge hose is used, make sure pump is
secured in sump to prevent movement.
Failure to secure pump may allow pump
movement, switch interference and prevent
pump from starting or stopping.
5. To reduce motor noise and vibrations,
a short length of rubber hose (1-7/8”
(47.6mm) I. D., e.g. radiator hose) can be
connected into discharge line near pump
using suitable clamps.
6. Install an in-line check valve (part number
FP0026-10-P2) to prevent flow backwards
through pump when pump shuts off. If using
the pump in anything other than a sump
application, ensure in-line check valve is
installed horizontally.
