  This equipment is only for use on 120 volt 

(single-phase) and is equipped with an ap proved 3-conduc tor cord and 

3-prong, grounding-type plug.

1.  To reduce the risk of electric shock, the motor must be securely and 

adequately grounded. This can be ac com plished by inserting pump 
power cord plug directly into a properly installed and grounded 
3-prong  (GFCI),  ground ing-type  re cep ta cle.

Where a 2-prong wall receptacle is en coun tered, it must be re-
placed with a properly grounded 3-prong (GFCI) re cep ta cle installed 
in accordance with the NEC and local codes and ordinances.

2.  Protect electrical cord from sharp ob jects, hot sur fac es, oil, and 

chemicals. Do not operate with damaged cord.

3.  Do not handle a pump or pump motor with wet hands or when 

standing on a wet or damp surface, or in water.

  If your basement or room has water or moisture 

on the floor, do NOT walk on wet area until all power has been turned 

off. If the shut-off box is in the basement, call the electric company 

to shut-off service to the house, or call your local fire department for 

instruction. Failure to follow this warning WILL result in fatal electrical 

shock.

  Si le sous-sol ou la pièce a de l’eau ou de 

l’humidité sur le plancher, ne PAS marcher aux endroits mouillés 

avant que le courant ne soit coupé. Si le boîtier de coupure de courant 

se trouve au sous-sol, appeler la société d’électricité pour couper le 

courant de la maison, ou encore appeler le service d’incendie local pour 

des instructions. Le non-respect de cet avertissement ENTRAÎNERA un 

choc électrique mortel.

GENERAL SAFETY INFORMATION (CONT’D)

  Disconnect power before servicing. If the power 

disconnect is out of sight, lock in the open (OFF) position and tag it to 

prevent unexpected application of power. Failure to do so COULD result 

in fatal electrical shock!

  Débrancher l’alimentation avant de procéder 

à l’entretien. Si la source de courant n’est pas visible, verrouiller en 

position ouverte (OFF) et étiqueter pour éviter tout rétablissement 

inattendu de l’électricité. Ne pas suivre ces instructions POURRAIT 

mener à une décharge électrique mortelle.

4.  Release all pressure within the system before ser vic ing any 

component.

5.  Drain all liquids from the system before servicing.
6.  Secure the discharge line before starting the pump. An unsecured 

discharge line will whip, possibly caus ing personal injury and/or 
property damage.

7.  Check hoses for weak and worn condition before each use, making 

certain that all connections are secure, and open ended.

8.  Periodically inspect the pump and system com po nents. Perform 

routine maintenance as required (See Main te nance Section, on 
page 3).

   This pump is not designed to handle salt water, 

brine, laundry discharge, water softner, sewage, grey water, or any 

other application which may contain caustic chemicals and/or foreign 

materials. Pump and/or property damage could occur if used in these 

applications and will void warranty.
