Electrical information
• Pumps are 115 V, 60 Hz and are grounded to prevent electrical shock.
WARNING:
Risk of electric shock—this pump is supplied with a grounding conductor
and grounding-type attachment plug. To reduce the risk of electric shock, be certain that
it is connected only to a properly grounded, grounding-type receptacle.
• Use a separate 15 amp circuit breaker or 15 amp fuse block with the pump.
• Do not use an extension cord with the pump.
• Do not cut off the ground pin or use an adapter fitting.
• Do not work on the pump or switch until any or all power cords are unplugged.
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE INSTALLATION
Failure to follow these instructions may cause serious bodily injury and/or property damage.
1. Before installing or servicing your pump, BE CERTAIN pump power source is disconnected.
2. Installation and electrical wiring must adhere to state and local codes and must be
complete before priming pump. Check appropriate community agencies, or contact
local electrical and pump professionals.
3. CALL AN ELECTRICIAN WHEN IN DOUBT. Pump should be connected to a separate
15 amp circuit breaker or 15 amp fuse block. Plugging into existing outlets may cause low
voltage at motor, causing blown fuses, tripping of motor overload, or burned out motor.
4. Do not connect pump to a power supply until permanently grounded. For maximum
safety, ground pump to a circuit equipped with a fault interrupter device.
5. Voltage of power supply must match the voltage of the pump.
6. Before installing pump, clear sump basin of any water, debris, or sediment. WARN-
ING: Sump basin must be vented in accordance with local plumbing codes.
EBARA PRO•DRAINERS are not designed for and CANNOT be installed in
locations classified as hazardous in the National Electric Code, ANSI/NFPA 70.
7. The sump basin should be between 18" and 24" in diameter and made of plastic,
fiberglass, or concrete.
8. The following may cause severe damage to pump and will void warranty:
• Using an extension cord.
• Cutting off the ground pin or using an adapted fitting.
• Working on pump or switch while plugged in.
• Removing motor housing, unscrewing impeller, or otherwise removing impeller seal.
PIPING
Plastic PVC pipe is shown in the illustrations, but galvanized steel or copper pipe may
be used if desired. All piping must be clean and free of all foreign matter to prevent
clogging. Use thread compound on all threaded joints unless specified otherwise.
