ELECTRICAL SAFETY
DANGER! Hazardous voltage can shock, burn or cause death. Ground the pump before connecting to power
supply. Disconnect power before working on any part of the pump.
IMPORTANT! All wiring should be performed by a licenced electrician.
1. Protect yourself against electric shocks when working on electrical equipment. Avoid body contact with
grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, cooking stoves and refrigerators. There is an increased chance
of electrical shock if your body is grounded.
2. Do not disconnect the power cord in place of using the ON/OFF switch on the device. This will prevent an
accidental startup when the power cord is plugged into the power supply.
3. Do not alter any parts of the device or accessories. All parts and accessories are designed with built-in safety
features that may be compromised if altered.
4. Make certain that power source conforms to requirements of your equipment.
5. When wiring an electrically driven device, follow all electrical and safety codes, as well as the most recent
Canadian Electrical Code (CE) and Canadian Centre for Occupational Health and Safety (CCOHS).
POWER CORD
WARNING! Risk of electric shock. This pump is supplied with a grounding conductor and three prong ground
attachment plug. To reduce the risk of electric shock, be certain that it is connected to a properly
grounded receptacle.
1. Insert the power cord plug directly to the power supply whenever possible. Use extension cords or surge
protectors only when the tool’s power cord cannot reach a power supply from the work area (see below).
2. Do not operate this tool if the power cord is frayed or damaged as an electric shock may occur, resulting in
personal injury or property damage.
a. Inspect the tool’s power cord for cracks, fraying or other faults in the insulation or plug before each use.
b. Discontinue use if a power cord feels more than comfortably warm while operating the tool.
c. Have the power cord replaced by a qualified service technician
3. Keep all connections dry and off the ground to reduce the risk of electric shock. Do not touch plug
with wet hands.
4. Prevent damage to the power cord by observing the following:
a. Never use the cord to carry the tool.
b. Do not pull on the cord to disconnect the plug from an outlet.
c. Keep the power cord clear of the tool and the tool’s work path while in operation. The cord should always
stay behind the tool.

e. Do not allow people, mobile equipment or vehicles to pass over unprotected power cords.
i. Position power cords away from traffic areas.
ii. Place cords in reinforced conduits.
