CAUTION

• Do not scratch, fold, twist, make 

alterations, or bundle the cable, or 

use it as a lifting device. The cable 

may be damaged, which may 

cause electrical leakage, short-

circuit, electrical shock, or fire.

• When transporting or installing the pump, 

attach a wire rope or chain firmly to the 

eyebolt. Do not under any circum-

stances install or transport the pump 

by suspending it from the cabtyre 

cable. The cable may be dam-

aged, which may cause electrical 

leakage, electrical shock, or fire.

• Let the unit suck minimum amount of sand 

or mud. When the pump is to be installed 

on a soft foundation, mount it on a 

concrete block or the like to prevent 

it from being submerged in sand. 

Damage resulting from abrasion 

may bring about electrical leak-

age or electrical shock.

• Provide a secure ground. Do not connect 

the grounding wire to a gas pipe, water 

pipe, lightning rod, or telephone 

ground line. Improper grounding 

may lead to electrical shock.

• This product is neither dust-proof 

nor explosion-proof. Do not use it 

at a dusty place or at a place 

where corrosive, toxic or explosive 

gas presents or may be gener-

ated. Use in such places could 

cause fire or explosion.

• If a hose is used for the discharge 

line, take a measure to prevent the 

hose from shaking. If the hose 

shakes, you may be wet or 

injured.

• Do not use the cabtyre cable if it is 

found to be damaged. Connect the 

cabtyre cable securely to the 

terminals. Failure to observe this 

can lead to electrical shock, 

short-circuit, or fire.

• Install the discharge piping 

securely so that no water leakage 

may occur. Failure to do so may 

result in damage to nearby walls, 

floors, and other equipment.

 PRECAUTIONS DURING TEST OPERATION AND OPERATION

CAUTION

WARNING

• Never start the pump if somebody 

is present in the pump sump. If an 

electrical leakage occurs, it can 

cause electrical shock.

• When inspecting the pump, be 

sure to turn off the power supply 

(earth leakage circuit breaker, etc.) 

so that the pump may not start 

accidentally.Failure to do so may 

lead to a serious accident.

• Never start the pump while it is 

suspended, as the unit may jerk 

and lead to injury.

• Do not operate the product under any 

voltage other than described on the 

  nameplate with the voltage tolerance limit 

within ±5%. If it is operated with a 

  generator, it is strongly suggested not to 

operate other equipment with the 

same generator. Failure to observe 

this caution may cause malfunc-

tion and breakdown of the prod-

uct, which may lead to electrical 

leakage or electrical shock.

• Do not touch the product with bare 

hands during or after the operation, 

as the product may become very 

hot during operation. . Failure to 

observe this caution may lead to  

burn.

• Do not use the product in hot or 

warm liquid over 40°C, as doing so 

will damage the product, which 

may lead to electrical leakage or 

electrical shock.

• Do not use the product in a liquid 

other than water. Use in oil, salt 

water or organic solvents will 

damage it, which may lead to 

electrical leakage or electrical 

shock.

• Do not run the product dry or 

operate it with its maximum head, 

as doing so will damage the 

product, which may lead to 

electrical leakage or electrical 

shock.

• Check that the motor rotates in 

the correct direction of rotation. 

Operating in the wrong direction 

may damage the pump, which 

may cause electrical leakage 

or electrical shock.
