SEE BELOW FOR LIST OF WARNINGS
1. To reduce the risk of electrical shock, a properly grounded
receptacle of grounding type must be installed and protected
by a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) and in accordance
with national electrical code and local codes.
2. Make certain that the receptacle is within the reach of the
pump's power supply cord. DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION
CORD. Extension cords that are too long or too light do
not deliver sufficient voltage to the pump motor. But more
important, they could present a safety hazard if the insulation
were to become damaged or the connection end were to fall
into the sump.
3. Testing for Ground. As a safety measure, each electrical
outlet should be checked for ground using an Underwriters
Laboratory Listed circuit analyzer which will indicate if the
power, neutral and ground wires are correctly connected to
your outlet. If they are not, call a qualified electrician.
4. For electrical safety, it is recommended that a GFCI be
installed.
5. FOR YOUR PROTECTION, ALWAYS DISCONNECT PUMP
FROM ITS POWER SOURCE BEFORE HANDLING. Single
phase pumps are supplied with a 3-prong grounded plug to
help protect you against the possibility of electrical shock.
DO NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, REMOVE
THE GROUND PIN. To reduce the risk of electrical shock,
a properly grounded receptacle of grounding type must be
installed and protected by a ground fault circuit interrupter
(GFCI) in accordance with national electrical code and local
codes.
6. Installation and checking of electrical circuits and hardware
should only be performed by a qualified licensed electrician.
7. Risk of electric shock - These pumps have not been
investigated for use in swimming pool and marine areas.
8. According to the state of California (Prop 65), this product
