TO THE PROFESSIONAL OR INSTALLER:
Instructions must remain with installation.
GENERAL SEWAGE PUMP INSTALLATION
GENERAL SEWAGE PUMP INSTALLATION
Please read these instructions carefully.
Note before you proceed with the
installation of this product that the
manufacturer’s guideline has to be
respected. Failure to comply to instructions
and designed operation of this product,
may void the warranty.
Your product has been carefully packaged
at the factory to prevent damage during
shipping. However, occasional damage
may occur due to rough handling. Carefully
inspect your product for damages that could
cause failures. Report any damage to your
carrier or your point of purchase.
INITIAL START UP PROCEDURES:
1- Inspect the pump and the sewage tank for
any obvious condition that may necessitates
cleaning, correction, adjustement or repair.
2- Assure that the pump is secure and vertical
for proper operation.
3- Assure that there is adequate clearance
from any combustible materials or structure.
Stored materials must be kept away from the
pump. Shelves or cabinet structures must
not be in close proximity over the pump.
4- Assure that the motor is securely plugged
into a proper‘GFCI’electrical outlet.
5- Test the ‘GFCI’ outlet by pressing its test
switch. This should prove that the outlet
is energized and will trip o to protect
against a ground fault. Be sure to reset
the ‘GFCI’ by pressing its reset switch.
(Repeat this step monthly)
6- Lift the oat to assure that the pump will
start when required. (Step 7 below will test
submersible pumps with enclosed oats).
7- Pour pails of water in the sewage tank to
turn the pump on. Assure that any check
valve present will permit the sewage to ow.
8- Observe that the plumbing can pump the
sewage safely out of the residence. (Repeat
this step monthly)
SAFETY INTRUCTIONS:
Before installation and operation, follow these
procedures:
A- Check with your local electrical and
plumbing codes to ensure you comply with
the regulations. These codes have been
designed with your safety in mind. Be sure
you comply with them.
B- A separate circuit must be lead from the
home electrical distribution panel properly
protected with a fuse or a circuit breaker. We
also required that a ground fault circuit be
used as well as a ‘GFCI’ receptacle. Consult a
licensed electrician for all wiring.
C- The ground terminal on the three prong
plugs should never be removed. They are
supplied and designed for your protection.
D- Never make adjustments to any electrical
appliance or product with the power
connected. Do not only unscrew the fuse
or trip the breaker, remove the power plug
from the receptacle.
IMPORTANT
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION:
For pumping systems using more than one
pump, each pump needs to be connected to a
separate dedicated circuit protected by a fuse
or breaker. This way, the power supply of one
pump will not stop operating if the fuse of one
of the pumps burns or if the breaker of one of
the pumps trips.
IMPORTANT NOTICE:
The following are minimum requirements in
order to protect your residence from ooding.
It is a small investment but it is your personal
responsibility to protect your home, family and
valuables. Failure to comply with the following
requirements will also void your warranty:
- Two (2) pumps have to be installed in the
sewage pit. The rst pump as a primary pump
and the second pump as the backup unit.
-An Alarm system model T50454 has to be
installed to advise you of any malfunctions.
Pump selection, proper and adequate
installation are a must to comply with local
by-laws and need to be adhered to.

INSTALLATION STEPS:
STEP 1
We recommend that you install your pump
and basin in a clean location where there is
adequate room for servicing at a later date.
Protection from freezing temperatures and
good ventilation should be considered as well,
to provide the pump an environment for long
life. Friction losses in the discharge pipe must
be taken into consideration when many elbows
and ttings are installed in the discharge line.
Each elbows and ttings must be considered
as 1 feet of head. Never run the pump dry.
Damage to the seal may occur. The run of the
pipes from the check valve(s) to the existing
waste or drain line must never be slooping
downward except when connecting to same.
For a new installation, install your sewage
basin in the excavation you have provided in
the basement oor of your home. Connect the
necessary piping from your shower trap, toilet,
etc., to the inlet of your sewage basin, with the
proper pipe and ttings (see diagram).
STEP 2
Cut a length of 40” to 42” of 2” ABS/DWV pipe.
Cement the 2”ABS/DWV male adaptor to 2”slip
to one end of this pipe.
STEP 3
With your drill, make a 1/2” hole in the adaptor
previously glued. This hole will prevent any air
locking which might occur. Note: Check that
this might have been done in factory when
discharge pipe is supplied.
STEP 4
Lower pump(s) with piping attached into the
sewage basin. Make sure that the pump is as
close as possible to the centre of the basin.
Adjusting the pump(s) in centre of basin and
keep oat switch(es) from rubbing on side of
basin.
STEP 5
When you are pumping raw sewage, you must
have a gas tight cover on the basin and a vent
pipe from basin, connecting to home’s vent
system (see diagram). Feed the 2” riser pipe
from pump’s discharge, through the 2”opening
in the cover. Secure a 3” vent pipe to the vent
opening and bring the switch(es) and pump
motor power cables through the opening in
the cover provided.
STEP 6
Cut a piece of 2’’ ABS/DV pipe to the desired
length to start the discharge line. Run the
discharge line as short as possible to the
home’s waste sewer line.
STEP 7
Connect the 3 prong plug of the switch in a
receptacle. Insert the motor 3 prong plug into
female receptacle on exposed piggy-back
of switch plug. Repeat this operation for the
second pump.
STEP 8
Fill the sewage basin with water to test
the operation of the sewage pump(s) and
switch(es) operation. Allow the pump to go
several “on-o” cycles to assure satisfactory
operation.
STEP 9
Secure the gas tight cover and the plug for
electrical cords with the gaskets and screws
provided with the cover. Make vent connection
to home’s vent system.
