DANGER Do not use this unit to pump chemicals, flammable liquids, sewage or corrosive
liquids. You could injure yourself and the pump will fail. Pumping these types of liquids voids
the warranty. Superior Pump and other pump companies manufacture pumps for these types of
liquids. Make sure you purchase a pump designed for your specific needs. This pump will
handle fluids with the same characteristics as water. If you have any questions call us at 1-800-
495-9278 or contact us on the web at www.superiorpumpco.com
WARNING
Your pump has thermal over-load protection built in. It is not recommended for pumping liquids
over 120 F. The thermal overload protector will automatically shut down the pump in an
overheat situation. It will then reset itself once the pump cools down. The pump will then work
again. This overload is designed as a safety device and it will fail after repeated use. Normal
operation is for fluids between 32 F & 120 F.
DO NOT RUN THE PUMP DRY. The pump depends on water for cooling and lubrication.
Operating the pump without water may cause the motor to overheat or cause damage to parts
of the pump. It may also shorten the life of your pump.
NOTICE
EXTENSION CORDS
For best performance, it is recommended to connect the power cord directly to the grounded
GFCI outlet. If the use of an extension cord is necessary, always use a grounded waterproof
type cord. Never use longer than a 25-ft. cord that is lighter than 14/3 gauge.
DANGER Keep all electrical connections away from wet and moist environments. Wet
connections can cause electrical shock resulting in personal injury.

INSTALLATION/OPERATION
1. Place the pump on a hard surface in the water. Do not set the pump directly in mud or
sand. This may cause the intake screen to clog or damage to your pump.
2. The water level must be at least 1” deep for the pump to operate.
3. Plug the power cord into a grounded 120-volt AC outlet. The pump will start to operate as
soon as the cord is plugged in.
4. The pump will remove water down to the following levels:
Models
91025, 91026, 91250, 91255 - pumps down to ¼” of the surface
91251, 91257, 91330, 91331, 91335, 91337 - pumps down to ½” of the surface
91501, 91505 - pumps down to 1” of the surface
5. The pump should be turned off once the water reaches these levels.
6. Do not let the pump run dry. The pump depends on water for cooling and lubrication.
Operating the pump without water may cause the motor to overheat or cause damage to
parts of the pump. It may also shorten the life of your pump.
Anything that will pass through the intake screen holes will pass through the pump without
causing damage. The intake screen on the pump removes easily for cleaning. The units can
also be back-flushed using the garden hose adapter.
NOTE: This pump has a built in anti-airlock device. Leakage is normal from this device.
