Your backup sump pump depends on the battery used with
it for power. The better the battery, the better the performance of the pump. We recommend
the use of a size 27M
Deep Cycle Marine Battery or a size 24M Deep Cycle Marine
Battery. They will perform as indicated
in Table III, below,
and stand up well to long periods of little or no use.

NOTICE: All LED's will illuminate once the AC power has

TROUBLESHOOTING
Pump won't run.
1. Check all connections.
2. Check for low or defective battery.
3. Check that automatic switch is free to swing up and
down.
4. Check for blown fuse in the junction box of the system.
Motor hums but pump won't run:
1. Check for low or defective battery.
Pump runs but pumps very little or no water:
1. Make sure a check valve is installed and functioning between primary pump discharge and Backup Sump Pump
tee.
2. Check for obstruction in discharge pipe.
3. Discharge pipe length and/or height exceeds capacity of
pump. See Table III, Page 7, for pump capacity.
4. Check for low or defective battery.
5. Positive (+) and negative (-) w'tres reversed.
Pump cycles ton frequently:
1. The tether length too short on automatic float switch.
Make sure that tether is at least 3" (76mm); see Figure 3,
