Maintenance
TO PREVENT SERIOUS INJURY FROM ACCIDENTAL OPERATION:
Unplug the Pump from its electrical outlet and
ALLOW TO COOL FOR AT LEAST 2 HOURS before performing any inspection, maintenance, or cleaning procedures.
1.Before each use, inspect the general condition of the Pump. Check for cracked or broken parts, damaged electrical wiring, clogged Impeller Cover, Impeller, Discharge Pipes, leaks and loose connections, and any other condition that may affect safe operation. If abnormal noise or vibration occurs, have the problem corrected before further use.
Do not use damaged equipment.
2.Keep the Sump Basin clean. Clean out the sump basin regularly and keep the cover in place to keep it clean. Sand and other debris can interfere with pump operation, can block the air bleed hole, or can cause premature wear.
3.Clean out the air bleed hole periodically.
Quarterly Maintenance
The below maintenance must be performed at least once every 3 months under optimal conditions.
For frequent use, or dirty areas,
more frequent maintenance is required.
1.Remove the Sump Basin Cover.
2.Clean sludge and debris from the bottom of the shaft.
3.Rinse the housing off with clean water.
4.Clean fibers from inside the pump housing with a pressure washer (not included).
5.If the pump housing cannot be cleaned from the outside, it must be thoroughly cleaned.
Unplug the power cords before maintenance. Dismantle the bottom part of the pump as follows:
a.Remove the Screws at the bottom of the Base.
b.Remove the Base to expose the Impeller Cover and Impeller.
c.Clean the impeller with clean water.
d.To prevent damage, do not rest the pump on the impeller or pry against the impeller.
e.Reassemble in reverse order.
6.Make sure the float switch can operate freely, without obstructions.
