Installation

8.  Insert the plug of the pump into the PUMP socket of the control panel.

9.  Push the RESET button and the unit is ready for operation.

10. The back-up sump pump should be checked by unplugging the primary sump pump and filling the sump

basin with water. When the water level is slightly above the back-up sump pump it should turn on. As the
water level drops, the back-up sump pump should turn off before the water level reaches the bottom of
the back-up pump. If not, raise the float switch slightly. Press the RESET and plug the primary sump
pump back in.

Note: Be sure that there is a 4" minimum from the top of the back-up pump to the top of the sump. 
The float switch should turn this pump ON near the top of the pump and at least 2" down from the top
of the sump.
