NOTICE
EXTENSION CORDS
Connect the pump DIRECTLY to a grounded, GFCI outlet. Extension cords may not deliver sufficient
voltage to the pump motor. Extension cords present a life-threatening safety hazard if the insulation
becomes damaged or the connection ends fall into water.
DANGER
Keep all electrical connections away from wet and moist environments. Wet connections can cause
electrical shock resulting in personal injury.
Materials Required:
3/4 in. Garden Hose OR 1-1/4 in. Flexible
Drainage Kit
GENERAL INFORMATION
1. This pump is equipped with an automatic sensor switch. The pump will turn on automatically when the
water level reaches approximately the float switch "on" level (1-1/2”). When the pump removes water
down to the float switch “off” level (approximately 1/8 in.), the pump will run for an additional 30-60
seconds and then turn off.
Do not set pump directly on sand, dirt or mud. Sand or mud-choked pumps can be back-
flushed clean.
Do not handle or carry the pump by the power cord. Use the handle.
Extended usage of the pump in a partially submerged or non-submerged situation may
cause the pump to overheat due to lack of heat dissipation from the water. If this occurs,
the pump will shut itself off until the motor cools to its normal temperature. Repeated
overheating may cause damage to the pump.
The pump is not designed for application involving salt water or brine. Use with salt
water or brine will void warranty.
INSTALLATION
1. Attach the 3/4 in. garden hose adapter (included) to the pump discharge, then attach a 3/4 in. garden
hose (not included) to the garden hose adapter on the pump outlet. Maximum hose length should be
50 ft. Remove all kinks and coils. NOTE: Be sure the hose end has a rubber washer to minimize
water leaks.
2. If you would prefer to use a larger 1-1/4 in. flexible drainage hose to pump water away more quickly,
attach the included 1-1/4 in. FIP adapter to the pump. WARNING: Secure the discharge hose before
plugging in the pump. Pump torque may cause an unsecured discharge hose to “whip”, possibly
causing personal injury and/or property damage.
