Sears will repair or replace the pump free of charge if it fails due to manufacturing defects.
Damage caused by improper installation is not covered by this warranty.
This warranty is in addition to any statutory warranty.
For service return pump to the nearest Sears outlet.
Electrically powered sump pumps normally give many years of
trouble-free service when correctly installed, maintained, and
used. However, unusual circumstances (interruption of power to
the pump, dirt/debris in the sump, flooding that exceeds the
pump's capacity, electrical or mechanical failure in the pump,
etc.) may prevent your pump from functioning normally. To
prevent possible water damage due to flooding, consult your
local Sears store about installing a secondary sump pump or a DC
backup sump pump. See "Service", Page 5, for information about
common sump pump problems and remedies.
1. Know the pump application, limitations, and potential
hazards.
Do not use in explosive atmospheres. Pump
water only with this pump. Failure to follow this warning
can result in personal injury and/or property damage.
2. Disconnect power before servicing.
3. Release all pressure within the system before servicing any
component.
4. Drain water from the system before servicing.
5. Secure the discharge line before starting the pump. An
unsecured discharge line will whip, possible causing
personal injury and/or property damage.
6. Check hoses for weak or worn condition before each use,
making certain that all connections are secure.
7. Periodically inspect pump and system components. Perform
routine maintenance as required (See MAINTENANCE).
8. Provide a means of pressure relief for pumps whose
discharge line can be shut-off or obstructed.
9. Personal Safety:
a. Wear safety glasses at all times when working with
pumps.
b. Keep work area clean, uncluttered and properly lighted –
replace all unused tools and equipment.
c. Keep visitors at a safe distance from the work area.

GENERAL SAFETY INFORMATION
INTRODUCTION
Please read our instructions before you install and use
your new pump; this will help you obtain full value and
good service from it. It will also help you avoid needless
service costs that result from causes we cannot control
and cannot cover in our warranty.
d. Make workshop child-proof – with padlocks, master
switches, and by removing starter keys.
10. When wiring an electrically driven pump, follow electrical
and safety codes, as well as the most recent Canadian
Electrical Code.
11. This equipment is only for use on 115 volt (single phase) and
is equipped with an approved 3-conductor cord and 3-prong,
grounding-type plug.
To reduce the risk of electric shock, pull plug
before servicing. This pump has not been investigated for
use in swimming pool areas. This pump is supplied with a
grounding conductor and grounding-type attachment plug.
Be certain that it is connected only to a properly grounded
grounding-type receptacle.
Where a 2-prong wall receptacle is encountered, it must be
replaced with a properly grounded 3-prong receptacle
installed in accordance with Canadian Electrical Code and
local codes and ordinances.
12. All wiring should be performed by a qualified electrician.
13. Make certain that the power source conforms to the
requirements of your equipment.
14. Protect electrical cord from sharp objects, hot surfaces, oil,
and chemicals. Avoid kinking the cord. Replace or repair
damaged or worn cords immediately.
15. Do not touch an operating motor. Modern motors are
designed to operate at high temperatures.
16. Do not handle a pump or pump motor with wet hands or
when standing on a wet or damp surface, or in water.
Risk of electric shock. If your basement has
water or moisture on the floor, do not walk on wet area until
all power has been turned off. If shut-off box is in basement,
call the electric company to shut-off service to the house, or
call your local fire department for instructions. Remove pump
and repair or replace. Failure to follow this warning can result
in fatal electrical shock.
