Removing Pump from Basin for Servicing:
WARNING: Before handling these pumps and controls, always disconnect the power first. Do not
smoke or use sparkable electrical devices or flames in a septic (gaseous) or possible septic basin.
To remove a pump from a standard installation the power to the control panel is first turned off. Close the plug
valve. Disconnect the power cords and sensor cords in the control panel from their terminals. Lift out the
pump from the basin by means of the chain or cable. Disconnect the flexible conduit, power and sensor cords
from the control panel. Pull the pump cord down through the pipe coupling while holding the cord on the
underside of the basin cover so the cords do no fall into the basin. For installing the pump, reverse the above
procedure.
Remove Float Controls for Replacement:
To remove a float for replacement from a standard installation the power is first turned off to the control panel.
Disconnect the float leads from the terminals in the control panel. Disconnect the flexible conduit from the
control panel. Remove the flexible conduit and the float control leads from the control panel. Remove flexible
conduit from potting head. Break out potting from the potting head and remove the float wire. Remove float
cord from the float cord mounting bracket and remove float from basin. Replace float by reversing removal
procedure. Repot the leads in the potting head according to N.E.C. and/or local codes.
