Notice to Installer: Instructions must remain with installation.

1. Inspect your unit. Occasionally, products are damaged during shipment. If the unit is damaged, contact your dealer before using. DO NOT remove

the test plugs from the pump.

2. Carefullyreadtheliteratureprovidedtofamiliarizeyourselfwithspecicdetailsregardinginstallationanduse.Thesematerialsshouldberetained

for future reference.

1. To reduce the risk of electrical shock, a properly grounded receptacle of

grounding type must be installed and protected by a ground fault circuit

interrupter (GFCI) and in accordance with National Electrical Code and

local codes. (SEE WARNING BELOW).

2. Make certain that the receptacle is within the reach of the pump’s power

supply cord. DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD. Extension cords

thataretoolongortoolightdonotdeliversufcientvoltagetothepump

motor. But more important, they could present a safety hazard if the

insulation were to become damaged or the connection end were to fall

into the sump.

3. Testing for Ground. As a safety measure, each electrical outlet should

be checked for ground using an Underwriters Laboratory Listed circuit

analyzer which will indicate if the power, neutral and ground wires are

correctlyconnectedtoyouroutlet.Iftheyarenot,callaqualiedelectrician.

4. For Added Safety. Pump must be connected to a 3-prong grounded

outlet interrupter device (ground fault circuit interrupter).

5. FOR YOUR PROTECTION, ALWAYS DISCONNECT PUMP FROM

ITS POWER SOURCE BEFORE HANDLING. Single phase pumps

are supplied with a 3-prong grounded plug to help protect you

against the possibility of electrical shock. DO NOT, UNDER ANY

CIRCUMSTANCES, REMOVE THE GROUND PIN. To reduce the risk

of electrical shock, a properly grounded receptacle of grounding type

must be installed and protected by a ground fault circuit interrupter

(GFCI) in accordance with national electrical code and local codes.

6. Installation and checking of electrical circuits and hardware should only

beperformedbyaqualiedlicensedelectrician.

7. Risk of electric shock - These pumps have not been investigated for

use in swimming pool areas.

8. According to the state of California (Prop 65), this product contains

chemicals known to the state of California to cause cancer and birth

defects or other reproductive harm.

1. Check to be sure your power source is adequate for handling the voltage

requirements of the motor, as indicated on the pump or basin plate.

2. Make sure the pump electrical supply circuit is equipped with fuses

or circuit breakers of proper capacity. A separate branch circuit is

recommended, sized according to the National Electrical Code for the

current shown on the pump name plate.

3. All plumbing (discharge and vent lines) must be installed to meet

local codes. Unit must be vented. Some states require this unit to be

installedbyaqualiedlicensedplumber. DO NOT USE AN AUTOMATIC

PLUMBING VENT DEVICE SIMILAR TO A "PRO-VENT".

4. Repair and service should be performed by Zoeller Pump Company

Authorized Service Station only.

5. CHECK VALVE MUST BE USED TO REDUCE UNNECESSARY

CYCLING OF PUMP.

6. Dewatering pumps are not designed or intended for handling raw sewage.

7. Maximum operating temperature for 915 Grinder Pumps must not

exceed 110°F (43°C).

8. For health reasons, do not unplug, turn off, or disable pump and use

Your Peace of Mind is Our Top Priority

ELECTRICAL PRECAUTIONS- Before servicing a pump, always shut off the main power breaker and then unplug the pump - making

sure you are not standing in water and wearing insulated protective sole shoes. Under ooded conditions, contact your local electric company or a

qualied licensed electrician for disconnecting electrical service prior to pump removal.

Submersible pumps can become pressurized under normal operating conditions — allow 2½ hours after disconnecting before attempting service.

CONDITION COMMON CAUSES

A. Pump will not start or run.

Check fuse, low voltage, overload open, open or incorrect wiring, open switch, impeller or seal bound mechanically, defective

capacitor or relay when used, motor or wiring shorted. Float assembly held down. Switch defective, damaged, or out of adjustment.

B. Motor overheats and trips

overload or blows fuse.

Incorrect voltage, negative head (discharge open lower than normal) impeller or seal bound mechanically, defective capacitor

or relay, motor shorted.

C. Pump starts and stops too often.

Float switch tether length too short, check valve stuck, or none installed in long distance line, overload open, switch defective.

D. Pump will not shut off.

Debris under oat assembly, oat bound by basin sides or other, switch defective, damaged or out of adjustment.

E. Pump operates but delivers little

or no water.

Check pump inlet, discharge pipe, and weep holes for obstructions. System head exceeds pump capacity. Low or incorrect

voltage. Capacitor defective. Incoming water containing air or causing air to enter pumping chamber.

F. Drop in head and/or capacity

after a period of use.

Increased pipe friction, clogged line or check valve. Abrasive material and adverse chemicals could possibly deteriorate

impeller and pump housing. Check line. Inspect pump inlet.

G. If tank or ttings leak.

Carefully tighten pipe joints (use pipe dope) and screws. Check gasket location, tighten lid evenly. Do not over tighten

ttings or screws.

If the above checklist does not uncover the problem, consult the Product Support Department; do not attempt to service or otherwise disassemble

pump. Service must be by Zoeller Authorized Service Stations.
