CALIFORNIA PROPOSITION
65 WARNING:
This product and
related accessories contain
chemicals known to the State of

Lift-Out
System
General Construction:
The base and pump guide plate on
all the models are made of ASTM
A536 ductile iron (see Fig. 1).
The mounting flange on all of the
models is made of ASTM A48
Class 30 cast iron. The locating
pins and all fasteners are made of
300 series stainless steel. Gaskets
are constructed of neoprene
rubber material. The elbows are
constructed of ASTM A48 Class
125 cast iron. The hazardous
location/nonsparking models have
260 yellow brass sleeved onto
the locating pins and have a cast
brass mounting plate to meet the
nonsparking requirements.
Lift-Out Chain:
Hydromatic offers lift-out
chain packages for each pump
we manufacture. Packages vary
depending on the pump design and
requirements. Each lift-out chain
package is designed to mount to
the top of the pump and allow the
pump to be safely hoisted up the
guide rail.
3. WARNING: See installation
and service manual for proper
installation.
4. WARNING: To reduce risk
of electrical shock, pump
is provided with grounding
wire. Be certain that it is
connected to ground.
5. WARNING: Hazardous
moving parts. To reduce the
risk of injury, disconnect
power before servicing pump.
6. CAUTION: To reduce the
risk of electrical shock, DO
NOT remove cord or strain
relief. DO NOT connect
conduit to pump. Electrical
installations shall be in
accordance with the National
Electrical Code and all
applicable local codes and
ordinances.
7. For use with maximum 140°F
water.
8. Septic tank should be vented
in accordance with local
plumbing codes and should
not be installed in locations
classified as hazardous, in
accordance with the National
Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA
70-1999.
9. CAUTION: Risk of electrical
shock. Do not remove cord
and strain relief. Do not
connect conduit to pump.
10. WARNING: Severe injury
may result from accidental
contact with moving cutters.
Keep clothing, hands and feet
away from cutters any time
power is connected to the
pump.
11. CAUTION: Never work on
pump with power on. Make
sure that the ground wire is
securely connected and that
the unit is properly grounded
in accordance with local
codes.

Rail Support Brackets:
The TL lift-outs are designed to
use 2" standard pipe for guide
rails. A top rail support bracket
is available to be mounted to
the hatch frame. Intermediate
brackets are available for deep
basins. It is recommended that if
the rail length is over 21', that an
intermediate bracket be installed.
After every additional 20' of rail,
another intermediate bracket
should be used for proper rail
support.
Basin Covers:
Hydromatic has several types of
basin covers available for use
with either fiberglass or concrete
basins. Basin hatch type covers
are available in either steel or
aluminum construction. The
basin cover frame is designed to
allow for mounting of rail support
brackets.
Basin Bottom:
All cement pipe basins must have
a smooth level troweled bottom
for level mounting of discharge
casting.
Level Sensing Controls:
Intrinsically safe type float
controls are recommended for
all applications and required for
hazardous location/nonsparking
service. An intrinsically safe
control panel relay will limit the
current and voltage to the level
controls. A Hydromatic control
panel can be supplied with this
type circuitry.
The float level controls maintain
the basin sewage water level by
controlling pump turn-on and
turn-off levels.
1. The lower turn-off control
should be set so that the pump
stops at approximately the
top of the pump. Consult the
factory for any settings below
this point.
2. The upper turn-on control
should be set above the
lower turn-off control. The
exact height between the two
controls is determined by
the number of pump starts
desired and the depth of basin.
A maximum of 10 starts per
hour should not be exceeded.
3. The override control is set at
a specified height above the
upper turn-on control.
4. The alarm control is set about
6" – 12" above the override
control.
5. No control should be set
above the inlet invert.
Valves:
It is recommended that all check
valves and shut-off valves be
mounted outside the sump in a
valve box. (See typical drawing
detail, Fig. 1.) Shut-off valves
should be of the water works
approved type with resilient
rubber disk seat.
CAUTION: After the pump
is installed and sewage has
entered the basin there is
danger. Sewage water gives off
methane and hydrogen sulfide
gases, which are poisonous.
Never enter a wetwell unless
proper confined space entry
procedures are followed.
Installing Rail
System Parts
(Fig. 3)
Mounting Cover, Discharge
Base and Rails:
1. Set concrete cover with hatch
opening in position.
2. Bolt top rail support plates
(Fig. 4) to hatch frame. The
plate has slots so the two
plates in a duplex system
can be adjusted to obtain
required center-to-center
distance between pumps.
3. Lower the base or base/elbow
assembly into the basin.
4. Position the base elbow
assembly by dropping a
plumb line from center of
pipe supports, located on top
rail support plate, to center
of tapered pins protruding
from the top of the base elbow
assembly. Level the elbow
flange in two directions, 90°
to each other. Shims may
be required under the base
in order to obtain this level
condition. Mark the position
of the base hold-down bolts
through the holes in the base.
5. Move the base aside to allow
drilling of the concrete for
3/4" expansion bolts, 2-1/2"
long. Move the base over the
bolt holes and recheck with
level and plumb line. Install
expansion bolts.
6. Cut the pipe guide rails to the
proper length and install them
between the pipe supports at
the top of the basin and pins
on the base. Guide rails are
Schedule 40, galvanized or
stainless steel.
7. Install discharge pipe as
required by the particular job
specifications.
IMPORTANT: Discharge
pipe and guide rails must
be parallel if intermediate
guide bracket is used.
8. If the top rail support plate
cannot be attached to the
hatch cover frame, a special
rail bracket (Fig. 5) can
be furnished for mounting
directly to a pipe cemented in
the basin wall. This bracket is

4
screws in top rail support.
Holes are slotted to adjust for
any error in rail pipe length.
5. Recheck rails; they must be
straight and plumb. Move
intermediate guide bracket
if necessary to perfectly
align rails. After alignment
is secured, tighten nuts on
U-bolt.
6. If a second intermediate
guide bracket is used, the
above procedure is followed
for installation.
Attaching
Mounting Plate
to Pump
1. Attach the mounting plate
with the supplied bolts.
(See Parts List, page 5.)
The mounting plate should
be turned so that the two
locating pins are horizontal
when attached to the pump
discharge.
2. Mount the guide plate to the
mounting plate using the two
set screws provided.
Installing
Pump and
Mounting Plate
1. Attach the lifting chain to
the pump. This is done by
installing two eye bolts.
WARNING: Do not exceed
working load limit of chains
and other lifting devices.
Do not use chains or lifting
devices where failure could
result in loss of life. Examine
chains and lifting devices
for deformation or damage
before and after each lift.
2. A hook is located on the top
rail support (Fig. 3) to hold
the upper end of the chain
when not in use.
3. Position pump so the guide
rails are located in the slots of
the guide plate. Slowly lower
the pump down the guide rails
to the base. The locating pins
(horizontal pins on mounting
plate) should come to seat
in the inclined surface of the
arms.
CAUTION: No persons
should be in the sump basin
when pump is lowered into
position!
Air Venting:
Air tends to trap in the pump
volute when water rises in the
sump or when the pump is
lowered into water after service.
To vent off this air, a small hole
is drilled into the pump volute.
Be sure this vent hole is clean
after any service work on pump.
Air venting is not a problem after
initial start.
set and aligned with discharge
base the same as described for
the rail guide plate attached to
the frame.

1. Remove guide rails (Fig. 3),
and cut a piece from each
one. These pipes must be
exactly the same length and
of a length that will permit
installing the intermediate
guide bracket in the desired
location.
2. Place the cut pieces of pipe
over the guide rail pins
located in the base.
3. Set the intermediate guide
bracket in position with
tapered guides into pipes. Put
U-bolt around discharge pipe
and tighten lightly.
4. Measure from joint on tapered
plug on intermediate guide
bracket to joint of tapered
plug on top rail support and
cut two rails to this length.
Put rails in place and tighten
