3. Piping attachments to building
structure too rigid or too loose
1. Replace pump
2. Replace pump
3. Install rubber coupling (available at local hardware stores) to isolate
pump vibration from discharge plumbing
Pump will not
shut off 1. Switch
2. Switch obstructions
3. Restricted discharge (obstruction in
piping)

ROUTINE MAINTENANCE
The pump should be inspected 3-4 times per year for pump movement or buildup of debris on the switch or floar. Reposition
pump if it has moved. Remove any debris that could interfere with the operation of the switch. Lack of proper routine maintenance
will void warranty.
• Make sure the pump is plugged in to a working ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) outlet and the cord is in good shape. In
damp areas, GFCI breakers may trip, effectively shutting off the effluent pump. Check in on your sewage pump and reset the
GFCI if necessary.
• Ensure the pump itself is standing upright. Vibrations during operation can cause it to fall or tilt onto one side. This can jam the
float arm so it can’t activate the pump.
• Pour a bucket of water into the pit to make sure the pump starts automatically and the water drains quickly once the pump is
on. If the pump doesn’t start, have it serviced or replaced.
• Replace the switch every two (2) years. This maintence will reduce the risk of improper pump operation, switch failure and/or
flooding.
