Check 3-phase pumps for correct rotation prior to installing
pump(s) in basin. To change rotation, reverse any two of the
three power leads to the pump (not the ground). Code the
wires for reconnection after installation.
Do not dispose of materials such as paint thinner or other
chemicals down drains. Doing so could chemically attack and
damage pump system components and cause product
malfunction or failure.
Do not use pump system with mud, sand, cement,
hydrocarbons, grease, or chemicals. Pump and system
components can be damaged from these items causing
product malfunction or failure. Additionally, flooding can
occur if these items jam the impeller or piping.
Do not run dry.
Do not position the pump float directly under the inlet from
drain tile or in the direct path of any incoming water.
Do not use pumps with fluid over 104°F (40°C). Operating the
pump in fluid above this temperature can overheat the pump,
resulting in pump failure.
The Uniform Plumbing Code® states that sewage systems
shall have an audio and visual alarm that signals a
malfunction of the system, to reduce the potential for
property damage.
Keep pump upright.
At no time shall the pump be stored within an incomplete wet
pit. The pump shall not be placed into the pit until it can be
fully operational.
Do not allow the pump to freeze.

nameplate provides a record of specific pump information.
Inspection and Storage
Initial Inspection
The pump should be immediately inspected for damage that may
have occurred in shipment.
1.
Visually check the pump and any spare parts for damage.
2.
Check for damaged electrical wires, especially where they exit
the motor housing.
Contact Liberty Pumps customer service to report any damage or
shortage of parts.
Storage Before Use
Protect the power and control cords from the environment.
Unprotected power and control (switch) cords can allow
water to wick through ends into pump or switch housings,
causing surroundings to become energized.
At no time shall the pump be stored within an incomplete wet
pit. The pump should not be placed into the pit until it can be
fully operational.
Do not allow the pump to freeze.
XLSG/XLSGX-Series Omnivore grinder pumps are shipped from
the factory ready for installation and use. The pump should be
held in storage if the pump station is not complete.
If storage is necessary, the pump should remain in its shipping
container. It should be stored in a warehouse or storage shed that
has a clean, dry temperature-stable environment where the pump
and its container are covered to protect it from water, dirt,
vibration, etc. The cord ends must be protected against moisture.
General Information
Before installation, read these instructions carefully.
Each pump is individually factory tested to ensure
proper performance. Closely following these
instructions will eliminate potential operating
problems, assuring years of trouble-free service.
The XLSG/XLSGX-Series pumps are to be used for
handling septic tank effluent, sewage, and drain
(storm) water.
Provide pump serial number in all correspondence.
Pumps are certified by CSA Group to CSA®, UL®,
and FM standards for use in hazardous locations
with division classification of Class 1, Division 1,
Groups C and D; or as zone classified Class 1,
Zone 1, and Groups IIA and IIB.
Pumps must be serviced at a qualified hazardous
motor enclosure repair facility approved by Liberty
Pumps. Any unauthorized field repairs void
warranty and hazardous location ratings. Contact
Liberty Pumps at 1-800-543-2550 to locate the
closest authorized repair facility.
Operating Constraints
It is extremely important to verify that the pump
has been sized correctly for the intended
installation. The operating point of the pump must
lie within the acceptable range as outlined by the
applicable Liberty Pumps performance chart.
Operating the pump outside of the recommended
range can invalidate the CSA Certification of the
pump and can also cause damage and premature
failure. Operating outside of the recommended
range can cause the pump to exceed its rated
nameplate amp draw, which will void the pump
certification. It can also cause motor overheating,
cavitation, excessive vibration, clogging, and poor
energy efficiency.
