7. Power Supply: Pump is designed for 115 V, 60 Hz, operation and requires a minimum 15 amp individual branch
circuit.
Plug the pump power cord plug into the piggyback switch plug outlet, and then plug the switch plug into a 115V GFCI
power outlet for automatic operation. The pump will start operating if the float switch moves over the pump top. The
water will be pumped out. When the water lowers to certain level, the float switch will turns off the pump.
Or plug the pump power cord plug into a 115V GFCI power outlet directly for manual operation. Pump will start
operating immediately once it plug to the GFCI and drain water out, when the water moved out, you must unplug the
pump immediately.
The following picture shows a typical connection for pumps with the piggy-back plug, for manual and automatic
operations.
Automatic - Plug float switch plug into GFCI outlet, then plug pump
power cord plug into float switch plug
Manual
–
Plug pump power cord plug directly into GFCI outlet.
WARNING:
Risk of electric shock. Can shock, burn or kill. Pump
should always be electrically grounded to a suitable electrical
ground such as a groun
ded water pipe or a properly grounded
metallic raceway, or ground wire system. Do not cut off the round
ground pin.
8. If the pump discharge line is exposed to outside subfreezing atmosphere, a portion of line exposed must be installed
so any water remaining in the pipe will drain to the outfall by gravity. Failure to do this can cause water trapped in the
discharge to freeze which could result in damage to the pump.
9. After the piping and check valve have been installed, the unit is ready for operation.
10. Check the pump operation by filling the sump with water and observing pump operation through one complete cycle.
CAUTION
：
Risk of flooding. Can cause personal injury and/or property damage. Failure to make this operational
check may lead to improper operation, premature failure, and flooding.
OPERATION
WARNING:
Risk of electric shock. Can shock, burn or kill. Do not handle a pump or pump motor with wet hands or when
standing on a wet or damp surface, or in water.
1. The shaft seal depends on water for lubrication. Do not operate the pump unless it is submerged in water as the seal
may be damaged if allowed to run dry.
2. The motor is equipped with an automatic reset thermal protector. If temperature in the motor should rise unduly, the
switch will cut off all power before damage can be done to the motor. When the motor has cooled sufficiently, the
switch will reset automatically and restart the motor. If the protector trips repeatedly, the pump should be removed
and checked. Low voltage, long extension cords, clogged impeller, very low head or lift, or a plugged or frozen
discharge pipe, etc., could cause the protector to trip.
3. The pump will not remove all water. If operating a pump manually, and suddenly no water comes out of the
discharge hose, shut off the unit immediately. The water level is probably very low and the unit has broken prime.
WARNING:
Risk of electric shock. Can shock, burn or kill. Before attempting to
check why the unit has stopped operating, disconnect power from the unit.
CAUTION:
Do Not Change the preset tether length.
