minor personal injury or property damage if ignored.
The word NOTICE indicates special instructions which are
important but not related to hazards.
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 ex­
ceeds 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 prob­
lems and remedies.
NOTICE: This unit is not designed for applications involving
salt water or brine! Use with salt water or brine will void
warranty.

Risk of electric shock. Proceed as fol­
lows if pump needs servicing:
A. Disconnect power to pump outlet box before
pulling pump cord plug! After plug is pulled, let
pump cool for 20 minutes before attempting to work
on it.
B. Take extreme care when changing fuses. To re­
duce the chance of fatal electrical shocks, DO NOT
stand in water or put your finger in the fuse socket.
C. Ground the electrical outlet box.
D. Use only a grounded outlet for cord plug,
E. Do not handle pump motor with wet hands or when
standing on wet or damp surface, or in water.
Never run pump dry. To do so can damage internal parts,
overheat the pump (which can cause bums to people han­
dling or servicii^ the pump), and will void the warranty!

jects on or near motor or switch linkage. Keep all
