the correct selection and use of appropriate tools, equipment, and procedures. Failure to comply with 
national and local electrical and plumbing codes and within Franklin Electric recommendations may result 
in electrical shock or fire hazard, unsatisfactory performance, or equipment failure.
Know the product’s application, limitations, and potential hazards. Read and follow instructions carefully to 
avoid injury and property damage. Do not disassemble or repair unit unless described in this manual.
Failure to follow installation or operation procedures and all applicable codes may result in the following 
hazards: 

 

Risk of death, personal injury, or property damage due to explosion, fire, 

or electric shock.

When a pump is in its application, do not touch the motor, pipes, or water until the unit is unplugged or electrically disconnected.

If the power disconnect is out of sight, lock it in the open position and tag it to prevent unexpected application of power.

If the disconnect panel is not accessible, contact the electric company to stop service.

Risk of severe injury or death by electrical shock.

To reduce risk of electrical shock, disconnect power before working on or around the system. More than one disconnect switch 

may be required to de-energize the equipment before servicing.

Wire pump system for correct voltage.

Be certain that this pump is connected to a circuit equipped with a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) device if required by 

code. 

The pump includes a grounding connector. To reduce risk of electric shock, be certain that it is properly connected to ground.

To avoid hazards when installing or servicing, install a double-pole disconnect near the pump installation.

Use an appropriate discharge resistor to discharge the capacitor prior to working on the motor.

Check local electrical and building codes before installation. The installation must be in accordance with their regulations as well 

as the most recent National Electrical Code (NEC) and the Occupational Safety and Health Association (OSHA), or Canadian Elec

-

trical Code (CEC).

Employ a licensed electrician. 

Risk of bodily injury, electric shock, or equipment damage.

This equipment must not be used by children or persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental abilities, or lacking in experi

-

ence and expertise, unless supervised or instructed. Children may not use the equipment, nor may they play with the unit or in 

the immediate vicinity.

Do not run the pump dry. If run dry, the surface temperature of the pump will rise to a high temperature that could cause skin 

burns if touched and will cause serious damage to your pump.

Equipment can start automatically. Lockout-Tagout before servicing equipment.

The pump has been evaluated for use with water only. Pump should only be used with liquids compatible with pump component 

materials.

An inoperative or malfunctioning pump could lead to flooding, resulting in personal injury or property damage.

Pump may become hot during operation. Allow pump to cool before servicing.

Operation of this equipment requires detailed installation and operation instructions provided in this manual. Read entire manual 

before starting installation and operation. End User should receive and retain manual for future use.

Keep safety labels clean and in good condition.
