is applied to installation, use and maintenance. Ensure the electric supply
is turned off and waste water system is drained before installation. In order
to securely fasten the unit, ensure that the mounting surface is a minimum
thickness of 19mm (3/4") (when fitted with the screws supplied).

internal electrics will render the pump unfit for use. - this is a non-
serviceable part of the pump.
