Automatic Operation:
1. Connect the piggy-back plug of the float switch into a
115 volt grounded GFCI receptacle. See Figure 2.
2. Connect the pump plug into the back of the piggy-back
float switch plug. See Figure 2.
3. Test your installation by filling the basin with water.
Observe the float switch through at least one complete
cycle to ensure it operates freely and does not contact
the sides of the basin. If necessary, adjust the float switch
or reposition the pump to ensure proper operation.
4. This pump is equipped with
an (A) anti-airlock hole. A
stream of water will emit from
this hole when the pump is
operating. This is a normal
feature of this pump. The
anti-airlock hole should be
cleaned periodically to prevent the pump
from becoming air locked. See Figure 3
Manual Operation:
1. For manual operation or float switch failure, the pump
power cord can be disconnected from the piggy-
back float switch plug and connected directly to the
receptacle. This will bypass the float switch and the
pump will run continuously. During manual operation
the pump should be monitored at all times to ensure
the pump does not run dry. When pumping is complete
disconnect from receptacle.
1. The pump motor is hermetically sealed in the housing
and does not require any service. Disassembly of the
motor housing or modification of the power cord voids
the warranty.
2. Periodically check the sump basin for accumulation of
mud, silt, sand and foreign objects. Clean the basin as
needed to prevent damage or clogging of the pump.
3. Periodically check the intake for obstructions. Clean if
necessary.
4. Periodically inspect and clean the anti-airlock hole.
5. Inspect the float switch for any accumulated sediment or
debris that may inhibit it from operating properly. Clean
if necessary.
6. Inspect the power cord for signs of damage or wear. Do
not operate the pump if the cord is damaged or worn.
7. In applications where the pump may not activate for
extended periods of time, it is recommended to cycle the
pump at least once per month to ensure the pumping
system is working properly when needed.
Maintenance
WARNING: Risk of electric shock. Always disconnect
the power supply before attempting to install, service or perform
maintenance on the pump.
WARNING: All repairs must be made by a qualified
technician.
CAUTION: This submersible pump contains oil which may
become pressurized and hot under normal operating conditions
– allow the pump to cool for 2-3 hours before servicing.

Operation
WARNING: The pump motor is thermally protected. It is
not recommended for pumping liquids over 120° F (48.9°C). The
thermal overload protector will automatically shut down the
pump in an overheat situation. The pump will reset itself once the
pump cools down. This overload is designed as a safety device
and it will fail after repeated use. Normal operation is for fluids
between 35° F - 120° F (1.7°C - 48.9°C).
WARNING: Do not let the pump run dry. This pump relies
on water for lubrication and cooling. Operating the pump without
water may cause the motor to overheat or cause damage to
internal parts. It may also shorten the life of your pump.
