Crane SGV2002L, Installation And Operation Manual

SAFETY FIRST!

PLEASE READ THIS BEFORE INSTALLING

OR OPERATING PUMP.

GENERAL

1. Most accidents can be avoided by using 

COMMON SENSE

.

2. Read this operation and maintenance instruction manual.
3. Do not wear loose clothing that may become entangled in the impeller or other moving parts.
4. Always wear appropriate safety gear, such as safety glasses, when working on the pump or piping.
5. Bronze/brass and bronze/brass fitted pumps may contain lead levels higher than considered safe for potable water systems.

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.

6. Minimize the amount of cooking grease entering the system.
7. 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.

8. Prevent large articles of clothing, large amounts of chemicals, other materials or substances such as are uncommon in 

domestic sewage from entering the system.

9. During power black-outs, discontinue water consumption at the home(s) to prevent sewage from backing up into the house.
10. Prevent infiltration or direct flow 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.

11. Always keep the shut-off valve completely open when system is in operation (unless advised otherwise by the proper authorities).
12. Keep the control panel locked or confined to prevent unauthorized access to it.
13. If the pump is idle for long periods of time, it is advisable to start the pump occasionally by adding water to the basin.
14. Before removing the pump from the basin, be sure to close the shut-off valve. (This prevents backflow from the pressure sewer.)
15. Make sure level controls are provided at time of installation.

PUMPS

16. Recommended no more than 10 starts per hour.
17. Pumps build up heat and pressure during operation-allow time for pumps to cool before handling or servicing.
18. Only qualified personnel should install, operate and repair pump.
19. Keep clear of suction and discharge openings. 

DO NOT

 insert fingers in pump with power connected.

20. Do not pump hazardous materials (flammable, caustic, etc.) unless the pump is specifically designed and designated to handle

them.

21. Do not block or restrict discharge hose, as discharge hose may whip under pressure.
22. Make sure lifting handles are securely fastened each time before lifting.
23. Do not lift pump by the power cord.
24. Do not exceed manufacturers recommendation for maximum performance, as this could cause the motor to overheat.
25. Secure the pump in its operating position so it can not tip over, fall or slide.
26. Keep hands and feet away from impeller when power is connected.
27. Submersible Pumps are not approved for use in swimming pools, recreational water installations, decorative fountains or any

installation where human contact with the pumped fluid is common.

28. Do not operate pump without safety devices in place.
29. Always replace safety devices that have been removed during service or repair.

ELECTRICAL

30. To reduce risk of electrical shock, pump must be properly grounded in accordance with the National Electric Code (NEC)  or the

Canadian Electrical Code (CEC) and all applicable state, province and local codes and ordinances.

31. To reduce risk of electrical shock, always disconnect the pump from the power source before handling or servicing. Lock out

power and tag

32. Any wiring of pumps should be performed by a qualified electrician.
33. Never operate a pump with a power cord that has frayed or brittle insulation.
34. Cable should be protected at all times to avoid punctures, cut, bruises and abrasions - inspect frequently.
35. Never handle connected power cords with wet hands.
36. Do not remove cord and strain relief. Do not connect conduit to pump.
37. To reduce risk of electrical shock, all wiring and junction connections should be made per the NEC or CEC and applicable state,

province and local codes. Requirements may vary depending on usage and location. See wiring diagrams in manual.

38. Do Not operate the pump in the "HAND" control position and leave the pump unattended.
