Unpacking
When unpacking, check to make sure all parts are included. Refer to the parts list and as- sembly diagram on page 7 and 8. If any parts are missing or broken, please call Harbor Freight Tools at the number on the cover of this manual.
Operation
1.Connect drain hose to the Universal Adapter (47) discharge fitting. This hose should be long enough to drain away from the reservoir being pumped. See installation examples on the next page.
2.If the pump needs to be lowered into a pool or other deep reservoir, attach a rope to the pump handle and lower into position. Never suspend the pump from the power cord or discharge pipe.
The pump should rest on a flat, level, and solid foundation. Never operate on earth, clay, sand, or gravel surfaces. Keep the pump inlet opening clear of debris. If the drain piping runs in excess of 10 feet, it is recommended to use a check valve (not included) to prevent back flow. To avoid air locks in the pump, drill an 1/8 inch hole in the piping, between the check valve and the pump. Refer to the illustration on the next page.
Warning: Never use the line cord to carry the pump. Do not run the pump dry. It will increase wear to the unit and cause possible seal damage.
3.Connect the Power Cable to the Ground Fault Interrupter receptacle to begin pumping.
Caution:The Float Switch must be floating in water for the pump to operate. It is meant to shut off intermittently. Do not attempt to manipulate the switch to keep the pump running continuously. Doing so will damage the pump.
Warning: Never allow the power cord or extension cord connection (if used) to come in contact with ground water.
Note: Performance of this pump may vary depending on variations in local line voltage. Extension cord usage may also affect tool performance.
