DANGER
Do not use this unit to pump flammable or corrosive liquids. You could injure
yourself and the pump will fail. Pumping these types of liquids voids the warranty. Decko
Products and other pump companies manufacture pumps for these types of liquids. Make
sure you purchase a pump designed for your specific needs. 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 and the pump will
work again. The overload protector is designed as a safety device and it will fail after
repeated use. Normal operation is for fluids between 40 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 serious or fatal injury.
