ELECTRICAL WIRE CONNECTION

OVERLOAD PROTECTION Do not work on pump until power is unplugged. Do not cut off ground pin or use an adapter tting. Do not use an extension cord. The pump power cord should be connected to a separately fused, grounded line with a minimum capacity of 15 amps. It can be connected to non- fuse breaker at the recommended amperes.

1. Before installing or servicing this pump, be

certain pump source is disconnected.

2. Installation and electrical wiring must adhere

to state and local codes and must be completed before priming pump. Check appropriate community agencies, or contact local electrical and pump professionals.

3. Call an electrician when in doubt. Pump

should be connected to a separate 15 amp circuit breaker or 15 amp fuse block. Note that plugging into existing outlets may cause low voltage at motor. This could cause blown fuses, tripping of motor overload or burned out motor.

4. A permanent ground connection from pump

to the grounding bar at the service panel is mandatory. These sump pumps come with a grounding conductor and a grounding-type attachment plug. Do not connect pump to a power supply until permanently grounded. For maximum safety, connect pump to a circuit equipped with a fault interrupter device when positioningthepump’sgroundingwire.

5. Voltage of power supply must match the

voltage of the pump.

6. Before installing pump, clear sump basin of

any water, debris or sediment. Sump basin must be vented in accordance with local plumbing codes. These Sump pumps are not designed for and CANNOT be installed in loca- tions classied as hazardous.

7. The following may cause severe damage to

pump and will void the warranty. (a) Using an extension cord. (b) Cutting o the ground pin or using an adapter tting. (c) Working on pump or switch while plugged in. (d) Removing motor housing, unscrewing impeller, or otherwise removing impeller seal. (e) Running the pump continuously. (f) Pumping chemicals or corrosive liquids. (g)Pumpinggasolineorotherammableliquids

9. Plastic PVC pipe can be installed in the

outlet piping. Drain hose, galvanized steel or copper pipe may be used if desired. All piping must be clean and free of all foreign matter to prevent clogging. 10.Pump will be inadequate if suspension liquids contain solid particles larger than 1/8” Verify that the voltage and frequency of the pump shown on the nameplate corresponds to those available on the mains. The installer must make sure that the electric system is grounded in accordance with code.

Grounding: The plug of the power cable has a double grounding contact, so that grounding can be performed by simply inserting the plug. This pump series has a built in thermal protection switch. The pump stops if an overload condition occurs. The motor restarts automatically after it has cooled down.
