WARNING
IMPORTANT! For your own safety –
before starting to run the pump, please have
the following items checked by an expert:
1. Risk of electric shock – This pump is supplied
with a grounding conductor and grounding-type
attachment plug. To reduce the risk of electric shock,
be certain that it is connected only to a properly
grounded, grounding-type receptacle.
2. Risk of electric shock – This pump has not been
investigated for use in swimming pool areas.
3. The electrical connections must be
protected from moisture.
4. If there is danger of flooding, the electrical
connections must be taken to higher ground.
5. Circulation of caustic fluids, as well as the circulation
of abrasive materials, must be avoided at all costs.
6. The pump must be protected from frost.
7. The pump must be protected from running dry.
8. Access by children should also be
prevented with appropriate measures.
9. To prevent death from electric shock,
pump must be connected only to a GFCI
protected outlet.
10. Do not use an extension cord with this item.
11. People with pacemakers should consult their
physician(s) before use. Electromagnetic fields in
close proximity to heart pacemaker could cause
pacemaker interference or pacemaker failure.

Installation
The submersible motor pump must be installed in a stationary position with either:
a. A fixed pipeline or
b. A flexible hose pipe.
Please note!
1. Do not install the pump by suspending it
unsupported from its delivery pipe or power cord.
The pump must be suspended from the handle
or be placed on the bottom of the basin.
To ensure that the pump works properly,
keep the bottom of the basin free from
sludge and dirt of all kinds.
2. If the water level sinks too low, any sludge in the
basin will dry out and stop the pump from starting.
To help ensure the pump will start as required,
check the pump regularly with start-up tests.
Power Supply
1. The pump is equipped with a shock-proof plug
according to regulations. The pump is designed to be
connected to 120 VAC, 60 Hz GFCI protected socket.
2. Make sure that the socket is sufficiently
secured and is in excellent condition.
3. When the plug is inserted into the socket,
the pump will be on standby.
4. WARNING: To prevent death from electric
shock, pump must be connected only to
a GFCI protected outlet.
WARNING! TO PREVENT SERIOUS INJURY:
If the power cord or plug is damaged, do not
use the pump. The power cord or plug may
only be repaired by a certified electrician.
Areas of use
1. This pump is designed to pump water only.
2. This pump is designed to be used for:
Removing groundwater from
basements and crawl spaces.
3. This pump should NOT be used for:

Installation Instructions
1. Construct a sump basin that is at least
deep and at least in diameter. Clear
basin of any debris that could clog pump.
2. Position Pump on solid surface so that both
hoses are free from kinks the Float Switch is
from all obstructions throughout its movement.
3. Install discharge plumbing. Insert rigid pipe
into the male adapter and screw into place.
4. To prevent excessive cycling from backflow of
water, install a check valve (sold separately)
onto the discharge pipe. This prevents water
from flowing back after the pump shuts off.
5. Fit a sump cover with a hole for the discharge
pipe and a hole for the power cords. Thread the
Power Cords through their holes, but do not
plug them in yet. Set the sump cover aside
for now. Place unused end of discharge hose
the other end as needed to direct the water
discharge at least 3 feet away from the source.
Note: The sump cover can also be
fitted with a vent pipe, if desired.
Note: Wrap all threaded connections
with PTFE thread seal tape.
6. Connect additional Discharge Pipe as needed
to direct the water discharge at least 3 feet
away from the foundation. Slope the discharge
pipe downward, away from the foundation.
The discharge should be kept as short as
possible with a minimum number of turns.
IMPORTANT: Do not exceed the
Maximum Head Lift @ 0 Flow of the Pump.
