a. Cable ties (1) and (2) will be used to attach the 12 VDC pump control switch housing and power cord to the discharge pipe. Installing both cable ties
to the 12 VDC pump control switch is critical for proper operation of 12 VDC pump (see Figure 1).
b. Thread cable tie (1) through the eyelets on the 12 VDC pump control switch housing.
c. Position the 12 VDC pump control switch on the discharge pipe such that cable tie (1) is 4" to 6" above the "ON" water level of the 115 VAC primary pump.
d. Tighten cable tie (1) to secure the 12 VDC pump control switch to the discharge pipe.
e. Install cable tie (2) around both the power cord of the 12 VDC pump control switch and the discharge pipe such that the power cord is securely routed
away from any control floats.
f. Use electrical tape to further secure the power cord of the 12 VDC pump control switch to the discharge pipe.
s
NOTICE
!
The RS-12 switch cord contains a breather tube. Be sure the switch cord is not pinched so that the breather tube is not obstructed.
Non-restrictive air flow in the breather tube is required for proper RS-12 operation.
s
NOTICE
!
For proper pump operation, the exit point of all drain piping from the home must be lower, or sloping away, from the discharge
plumbing's highest point. Improper water drainage can allow freezing within the line leading to system or component damage or failure.
s
CAUTION
!
Ensure all hose clamp connections and threaded connections are tight, and that all plumbing slip-fit connections are properly
glued prior to starting the sump pump system. Failure to do so can result in damage to pump system and/or cause property damage due to flooding.
s
CAUTION
!
Do not install or store the pump where it will be exposed to the weather or to temperatures below freezing
or damage to the pump will occur.
