Operation
Connecting power
Operating the pump
□ Plug the pump power cord plug into the piggyback switch
plug outlet.
□ Plug the switch plug into a 115V GFCI power outlet.
□ When the float switch (1) moves up over the top of the
pump, the pump begins to operate. When the water lowers
to a certain level, the float switch (1) will turn the pump off.
□ Allow pump to operate through several on-off cycles.
NOTE: Ensure the pump is submerged in water. Running the
pump dry can damage the pump.
Switch tether height adjustment
Depending on the height of the inlet pipe, the pump float switch may
need to be adjusted. The switch cord is fastened to the side of the
motor housing with a clip and screw. If the water in the basin is
allowed to rise beyond the bottom of the inlet pipe before activating
the pump, lower the float switch cord per the instructions below.
Always maintain 3 in. of cord length between the switch and the clip.
□ Determine the height of the bottom of the inlet.
□ Raise the float switch to determine the height at which the
pump is activated. Only allow the pump to run for 1 second
dry.
□ Remove the screw from the float tether clip and replace in
to a lower threaded hole that allows the pump to operate
before water reaches the bottom of the inlet pipe.
□ Test the on/off operation of the switch by adding clean
water to the basin while observing the pump operation.
