Important Safety Instructions

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS. This manual contains important SAFETY WARNINGS and OPERATING

INSTRUCTIONS. You will need to refer to it before attempting any installation or maintenance.

ALWAYS keep these instructions with the unit so that they will be easily accessible.

Failure to read and follow these warnings and instructions could result in property damage,

serious injury, or death.

• ALWAYS disconnect the pump and float switch controller from the power source before servicing

or making adjustments.

• NEVER handle the pump or motor with wet hands or when standing on a wet or damp surface

while the pump is plugged into the power source.

• MAKE SURE THERE IS A PROPERLY GROUNDED RECEPTACLE AVAILABLE. This pump is wired with

a 3-prong grounded plug. To reduce the risk of electric shock, be certain that it is only connected

to a properly grounded, 3-prong receptacle. If you have a 2-prong receptacle, have a licensed

electrician replace it with a 3-prong receptacle according to local codes and ordinances.

• NEVER bypass grounding wires or remove the ground prong from the plug.

• DO NOT use an extension cord. The electrical outlet should be within the length of the pump’s

power cord, and at least 4 feet above the floor level to minimize potential hazards from flood

conditions.

• DO protect the electrical cord from sharp objects, hot surfaces, oil, and chemicals. Avoid kinking

the cord.

• MAKE SURE the supply circuit has a dedicated fuse or circuit breaker rated to handle the power

requirements noted on the nameplate of the pump.

• DO NOT use the power cord or strain relief to carry the pump. Use the pump handle.

• DO NOT pull on the float switch cord.

• DO NOT expose the control unit to any type of moisture, water, rain or snow.

pump’s power cord and at least 4 ft above the floor.
