Please Read This Before Installing Or Operating Pump.
This information is provided for SAFETY and to PREVENT
EQUIPMENT PROBLEMS. To help recognize this information,
observe the following symbols:
IMPORTANT! Warns about hazards that can result
in personal injury orIndicates factors concerned with
assembly, installation, operation, or maintenance which
could result in damage to the machine or equipment if
ignored.
CAUTION ! Warns about hazards that can or will cause minor
personal injury or property damage if ignored. Used with symbols
below.
WARNING ! Warns about hazards that can or will cause serious
personal injury, death, or major property damage if ignored. Used
with symbols below.
Only qualied personnel should install, operate and repair
pump. Any wiring of pumps should be performed by a qualied
electrician.
DO NOT drop or roll basin. This will damage unit and
void the warranty.
To reduce risk of electrical shock, always disconnect the pump
from the power source before handling or servicing. Lock out
power and tag.
Prevent large articles of clothing, large amounts of chemicals,
other materials or substances such as are uncommon in
domestic sewage from entering the system.
During power black-outs, minimize water consumption at the
home(s) to prevent sewage from backing up into the house.
Always keep the shut-off valve completely open when system is
in operation (unless advised otherwise by the proper
authorities). Before removing the pump from the basin, be sure
to close the shut-off valve. (This prevents backflow from the
pressure sewer.)
WARNING! Do not pump hazardous materials
(flammable, caustic, etc.) unless the pump is
specifically designed and designated to handle them.
DO NOT wear loose clothing that may become
entangled in the impeller or other moving parts.
Keep clear of suction and discharge openings.
DO NOT insert fingers in pump with power connected.
Always wear appropriate safety gear, such as safety
glasses, when working on the pump or piping.
Cable should be protected at all times to avoid
punctures, cut, bruises and abrasions - inspect
frequently.
Never handle connected power cords with wet hands.
To reduce risk of electrical shock, all wiring and junction
connections should be made per the NEC or CEC
and applicable state or province and local codes.
Requirements may vary depending on usage and
location.
Products Returned Must Be Cleaned, Sanitized, Or
Decontaminated As Necessary Prior To Shipment, To
Insure That Employees Will Not Be Exposed To Health
Hazards In Handling Said Material. All Applicable Laws
And Regulations Shall Apply.
Bronze/brass and bronze/brass fitted pumps may
contain lead levels higher than considered safe
for potable water systems. Lead is known to cause
cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm.
Various government agencies have determined that
leaded copper alloys should not be used in potable
water applications. For non-leaded copper alloy
materials of construction, please contact factory.
IMPORTANT! - Crane Pumps & Systems, Inc. is not
responsible for losses, injury, or death resulting from a
failure to observe these safety precautions, misuse or
abuse of pumps or equipment.
SAFETY FIRST!
Hazardous uids can
cause re or explosions,
burnes or death could
result.
Biohazard can cause
serious personal injury.
Hazardous voltage can
shock, burn or cause death.
Rotating machinery
Amputation or severe
laceration can result.
Minimize the amount of cooking grease entering the system.
DO NOT leave pump cover off the basin, except while servicing,
to prevent entrance of foreign materials such as rocks, metal,
soil, animals or humans.
Prevent infiltration or direct flow of rain or run-off water into the
pump basin to minimize pump cycling. This will prevent
overloading the treatment facility, and will facilitate swift
transportation of sewage.
To reduce risk of electrical shock, pumps and control
panels must be properly grounded in accordance with
the National Electric Code (NEC) or the Canadian
Electrical Code (CEC) and all applicable state,
province, local codes and ordinances.
Prior to energizing the pump, a verification of the
pump ground circuit should be made between the
pump case and panel ground.
Keep the control panel locked or confined to prevent
unauthorized access to it.
If the pump is idle for long periods of time, it is advisable to start
the pump occasionally by adding water to the basin.

Step 21: START UP PRE-CHECKLIST
Prior to performing an electrical and hydraulic performance check of the complete station, verify all of the following
criteria are met:
The shut-off and redundant check valve at force main are installed in the lateral discharge and are in the open
position
Discharge piping has been pressure tested to 150 PSI max without leakage
Inlet has a minimum of 1/8” per foot drop
All penetrations through basin and electrical enclosure sealed water-tight
 Proper backll and compaction has been done to prevent deection or possible failure of equipment
All cords are secured and clear of pump cutter and level control
Electrical supply is of proper voltage, phase for the pump
 Ground verication: Prior to energizing the pump, a verication of the pump ground circuit should be made
between the pump case and panel ground using a continuity tester or ohm meter
 Prior to energizing the pump, a verifcation of the pump ground circuit should be made between the pump case
and panel ground using a continuity tester or ohm meter.
A properly sized double pole circuit breaker has been installed in the service disconnect panel
Proper gauge and conductor wire installed from service disconnect to house panel
All terminal connections are secure
Circuit breakers in the Alarm Box are turned to the “OFF” position
Circuit breaker in the service disconnect turned to “ON”
Pump is properly seated on the discharge opening in the rail
Level control is installed properly
 Final grade slopes away from the basin to avoid runoff water collection/ basin inow
All construction and shipping debris has been removed from the basin
Step 22: START-UP CHECKLIST
 Water has been added to the basin to a level of approximately 1” above the pump support ange
Valve(s) within the basin and lateral are in the “OPEN” position (Pull on Green Strap in station)
Record pump and basin nameplate information on the start-up form (Before installing pump)
All alarm devices are turned to the “ON” position
Complete START-UP check sheet located in the back of the manual
