Only qualifi ed personnel should install, operate and repair pump. 
Any wiring of pumps should be performed by a qualifi ed electrician.  

WARNING! -

 To reduce risk of electrical shock, pumps and 

control panels must be properly grounded in accordance 
with the National Electric Code (NEC) or the Canadian 
Electrical Code (CEC) and all applicable state, province, 
local codes and ordinances. 

WARNING! -

 To reduce risk of electrical shock, always 

disconnect the pump from the power source before 
handling or servicing. Lock out power and tag.

Prevent large articles of clothing, large amounts of chemicals, other 
materials or substances such as are uncommon in domestic sewage 
from entering the system.

Minimize the amount of cooking grease entering the system.

DO NOT

 leave pump cover off the basin, except while servicing, 

to prevent entrance of foreign materials such as rocks, metal, soil, 
animals or humans.

Prevent infi ltration or direct fl ow of rain or run-off water into the pump 
basin to minimize pump cycling. This will prevent overloading the 
treatment facility, and will facilitate swift transportation of sewage.

During power black-outs, minimize water consumption at the 
home(s) to prevent sewage from backing up into the house.

Keep the control panel locked or confi ned to prevent unauthorized 
access to it.

If the pump is idle for long periods of time, it is advisable to start the 
pump occasionally by adding water to the basin.

Always keep the shut-off valve completely open when system is 
in operation (unless advised otherwise by the proper authorities). 
Before removing the pump from the basin, be sure to close the shut-
off valve. (This prevents backfl ow from the pressure sewer.)

CAUTION! 

Pumps build up heat and pressure 

during operation-allow time for pumps to cool 
before handling or servicing. 

WARNING!

 - 

DO NOT

 pump hazardous materials 

(fl ammable, caustic, etc.) unless the pump is specifi cally 
designed and designated to handle them.

WARNING! - DO NOT

 wear loose clothing that may 

become entangled in the impeller or other moving parts. 

WARNING! - 

Keep clear of suction and discharge 

openings. 

DO NOT

 insert fi ngers in pump with power 

connected.

Always wear appropriate safety gear, such as safety 
glasses, when working on pump or piping.

Make sure lifting handles are securely fastened each time before 
lifting. Do not operate pump without safety devices in place. Always 
replace safety devices that have been removed during service or 
repair.

Do not exceed manufacturers recommendation for maximum 
performance, as this could cause the motor to overheat.

Cable should be protected at all times to avoid punctures, 
cut, bruises and abrasions - inspect frequently. 

Never handle connected power cords with wet hands.

To reduce risk of electrical shock, all wiring and junction 
connections should be made per the NEC or CEC and 
applicable state or province and local codes. Requirements 
may vary depending on usage and location.

Do not remove cord and strain relief. Do not connect 
conduit to pump. 

Products Returned Must Be Cleaned, Sanitized, Or 
Decontaminated As Necessary Prior To Shipment, To 
Insure That Employees Will Not Be Exposed To Health 
Hazards In Handling Said Material. All Applicable Laws 
And Regulations Shall Apply.

Bronze/brass and bronze/brass fi tted pumps may contain 
lead levels higher than considered safe for potable 
water systems. Lead is known to cause cancer and birth 
defects or other reproductive harm. Various government 
agencies have determined that leaded copper alloys 
should not be used in potable water applications. For 
non-leaded copper alloy materials of construction, please 
contact factory.
