Testing for Ground
For your safety, check your outlet for ground using a Circuit
Analyzer. (Figure A). A Circuit Analyzer will tell you by a pattern of lights if the power, neutral, and ground wires are correctly connected
to your outlet. It can also be used to check
other outlets in your home. A Circuit Analyzer is available in
the Sears Electrical Department.

IMPORTANT:
The cold water pipe you use as a ground
must have metal continuity
to electrical ground. If continuity
is interrupted
by plastic, rubber, or other electrical
insulators; such as hoses, fittings, washers
or gaskets (including
water meter or pump),
a metal bypass must be used. Any

Automatic

Thermal

Overload

Protection

This pump motor has a buih:m automatic
thermal overload
protector.
If the motor overheats,
the protector
will open
and cut off power to the motor before the heat damages
it
internally.
The overload
will reset automatically
and the
pump will restart after the pum_ cools down below the danger point.
[_,WARNING ]DO NOT attempt
to work on the pump or
motor
if the overload
seems
to have tripped.
The
motor
may restart
without
warning
at any time. You
could
be injured
and the pump
damaged
if it starts
when
you are working
on it.
DO NOT attempt to repair a non-operational

1. Shaft seal depends on water for lubrication.
Do not operate pump unless it is in at Mast 3/16" (4.75mm)
of water
as seal may be damaged if allowed to run dry.
2. Motor is equipped
with automatic
reset thermal
protector. If temperature
in motor should rise unduly, switch
will cut off all power
before damage
can be done to
motor. When motor has cooled sufficiently,
switch will
reset automatically
and restart motor. If protector
trips repeatedly,
pump should be checked
as to cause of difficulty.
Low voltage,
long extension
cords,
clogged
impeller, very low head or lift, etc., could cause cycling.
3. Pump will pump water down to 3/16" (4.75mm);
this
means that it will not remove all water. If unit has been
operating and suddenly no water comes out of discharge
hose, shut off unit immediately.
Water level is probably
very low and unit has broken
prime.
Use mop or
squeegee to remove remaining water.
[ _,WARNING I Risk of electric

shock.

Before

attempt-

ing to check why unit has stopped
operating,
disconnect
power
from unit.
Do not handle
pump
with wet hands
or when
standing
on wet or damp
surfaces,
or in water.
Failure to follow
precaution
can result in personal
injury and/or
property
darnage.

Airlocks
When a pump airlocks, it runs but does not move any water.
An airlock will cause the pump to overheat
and fail. This
pump has an anti-airlock
hole in the bottom
of the pump
body (see Page 7). If you suspect
an airlock, unplug the
pump, clean out the anti-airlock
hole with a paper clip or
piece of wire, and restart pump.
IMPORTANT: This hole allows the pump to start priming
within 15 seconds in as little as 1/2" of water. NEVER restart
pump in less than 1/2" of water. Leakage from the anti-airlock hole is normal.

SERVICE

MAINTENANCE
Make certain
that the pump
is unplugged
before
attempting
to service or remove
any component.
1. The motor in the unit is sealed in oil. No additional lubrication is necessary.
2. IMPORTANT:
Disassembly
of the motor assembly
will
void the warranty. It might also cause internal leakage and
damage to the unit. If repairs are required,
return the
pump to the dealer from whom it was purchased.
