SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Risk of electrical shock. Can burn
or kill. Do not lift pump by power cord. See "Cord Lift
Warning" on Page 5.
Hazardous voltage. Can shock,
burn, or cause death. During operation the pump is
in water. To avoid fatal shocks, proceed as follows if
pump needs servicing:
5A. Disconnect power to outlet box before unplugging
pump.
5B. Take extreme care when changing fuses. Do not stand
in water or put your finger in fuse socket.
5C. Do not modify cord and plug. When using cord and
plug, plug into a grounded outlet only. When wiring to
a system control, connect pump ground lead to system
ground.
6. Do not run pump dry. Dry running can overheat pump,
(causing burns to anyone handling it) and will void war-
ranty.
7. Pump normally runs hot. To avoid burns when servic-
ing pump, allow it to cool for 20 minutes after shut-
down before handling it.
8. In normal service, motor should not need oiling. Motor
has been filled at the factory with a special oil; when
overhauling, replace with new oil. Use only oil speci-
fied in parts list of this manual. Use of any other oil
could damage motor and will void warranty.
