4. Never run pump dry. To do so can damage internal
parts, overheat the pump (witich can cause burns to people handling or servicing the pump), and will void the
warranty!
5. DO NOT attempt to oil the pump motor. A special off has
been put into the motor housing at the factory; use of any
other oil will void the warranty and could damage the
pump.

[AWARNING_Risk of electric shock. If your basement
has water or moisture on the floor, do not walk on wet
area until all power has been turned off. If shut-off
box is in basement, call the electric company
to shutoff service to the house, or call your local fire department for instructions.
Remove pump and repair or
replace. Failure to follow this warning can result in
fatal electrical shock.

PUMP

INSTALLATION

Set the pump on the bottom of the sump, making sure that
it sits solidly and is level. Be sure there is enough
space
around the pump to allow the switch free movement
as the
sump water level changes. Do not install the pump on clay,
earth, or sand surface.

INSTALLATION
A_UTION

] Risk

of flooding.

If a flexible

discharge

hose is used, pump
may move around
in sump when
motor starts. If it moves far enough so that the switch hits
the side of the sump, the switch may stick and prevent
pump from starting. Make sure that pump is secured so that
it cannot walk around in sump.
Hose Kit No. 27909 can be used as the discharge
pipe. Run
the discharge pipe to the nearest sewer outlet or other point
of disposal. Use the most direct route and the fewest turns
and elbows possible.
Use Teflon tape to seal threads in plastic
only.

/ ELECTRICAL
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
electrically insulated connector
should be jumped (as shown
in Figure 4), with a length of No. 4 wire clamped securely
at both ends.

pipe. Hand tighten

NOTE: To avoid bacldlow
into sump when pump shuts off,
install a Check Valve, SEARS Stock No. 2789, in threaded discharge port of pump. A SEARS No. 2789 Check Valve is constructed with an anti-airlock hole. If you use a SEARS No. 2792
or any other check valve, drill a 1/8" hole in the discharge pipe
just above the pump discharge
port and below the Check
Valve to prevent pump from airlocking.
Make sure the air-bleed hole is down inside the sump so that
it does not run water on the basement
floor when the pump
is running.

Thermal

Overload

Protection

This pump motor has a buih-in 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 pump cools down below the danger point.
I&WANNING ] 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

Take it to Sears for service by a qualified technician.
