INSTALLATION

Location Of The C1-Series Pump
The C1-Series is designed to be installed in a cistern gray water/
effluent environment. The pump should be protected to prevent
possible freezing.
If a sewage tank is near or a part of the system where the C1-Series
pump is installed, proper ventilation is required to meet all local
and national codes.
NOTICE: READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS!
Disconnect power at electrical panel before making any
electrical connections.
Adhere to the guidelines of national, state and local
plumbing codes when installing this product. Check with
the appropriate agencies or water systems professional for
additional information.
Supply voltage must be +/- 10% of motor nameplate
voltage. Low or high voltage can damage the motor and
will void the warranty.
If possible, connect pump to dedicated branch circuit with
no other appliances on it.
Do not operate pump unless pump is grounded.
Solder and tape all spliced connections carefully. A fused
disconnect switch or circuit breaker should be placed at or
near the pump.
