(5) Properly perform piping work so as not to create any air pockets in the middle of piping. CAUTION With automatic control, the sewage water in the pipe could flow backwards, causing the water surface control to react immediately. As a result, the pump will operate ON/OFF repeatedly, which could cause the pump to malfunction.
5 ELECTRICAL WIRING Electrical Wiring Work WARNING • All electrical work must be performed by an authorized electrician, in compliance with local electrical equipment standards and internal wiring codes. Never allow an unauthorized person to perform electrical work because it is not only against the law, but it can also be extremely dangerous.

6-2 Automatic Operation Trial Operation Equipped with floats to detect the water level and an internal control circuit, the automatic type (CA) pump can perform an automatic drainage operation alone by merely connecting its cable to a power supply. Connect the power and perform a trial operation as follows: (1) Direct all the floats downward.
7 MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION Regular maintenance and inspection are indispensable to maintaining the pump's performance. If the pump behaves differently from its normal operating condition, refer to section "9. Troubleshooting" and take appropriate measures at an early stage. We also recommend that you have a spare pump on hand for an emergency.

Storage If the pump will not be operated for a long period of time, pull the pump up, wash the pump, allow it to dry, and store it indoors. Note: For reinstallation, be sure to perform a trial operation before putting the pump into operation. If the pump remains immersed in water, operate it on a regular basis (i.e.
8 DISASSEMBLY AND REASSEMBLY PROCEDURE Prior to Disassembly and Reassembly WARNING Before disassembling and reassembling the pump, be sure that the power supply (i.e. circuit breaker) is disconnected, and remove the cabtyre cable from the outlet or the terminal board. Do not connect or disconnect the power plug with a wet hand, in order to prevent electrical shock.
9 TROUBLESHOOTING WARNING To prevent serious accidents, disconnect the power supply before inspecting the pump. Read this Operation Manual carefully before requesting repair. After re-inspecting the pump, if it does not operate normally, contact the dealer where this equipment was purchased, or the Tsurumi sales office in your area.
