Operating Instructions and Parts Manual TSC
Do not pump flammable or
explosive fluids such as gaso-
line, fuel oil, kerosene, etc. Do not use
in a flammable and/or explosive envi-
ronment. Pump only clear water.
Personal injury and/or property dam-
age will result.
Risk of electric shock! This
pump has not been tested for
use in swimming pool areas. Never
place pump in pools while people are
in the water.
Do not handle pump with wet
hands or when standing in
water or on a damp surface.
Risk of electric shock! This
pump is supplied with a
grounding conductor and grounding
type attachment plug. Use a grounded
receptacle to reduce the risk of fatal
electrical shock.
This pump con-
tains dielectric
motor oil for motor heat transfer.
Care should be taken when disposing
of this oil. Do not use this pump in
ponds or fountains because the motor
oil can be harmful to aquatic life.
2. Wear safety glasses at all
times when working with
pumps.
3. It is strongly recommended
that this unit be plugged into a
Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter
(GFCI). Consult a local electrician
for installation and availability.

Installation and Operation
Always disconnect
electric supply
before attempting to install, service,
relocate or perform any maintenance.
If the power source is out of sight, lock
and TAG IN OPEN (OFF) POSITION to pre-
vent unexpected power application.
Failure to do so could result in fatal
electrical shock!
This unit is not designed for
use in septic tanks or under-
ground vaults to pump raw sewage or
effluents. Never use in hazardous or
explosive locations.
1. This pump has been designed to
attach to a standard garden hose.
Thread the female end of the gar-
den hose to the male discharge on
the pump.
2. To reduce leakage between the
pump and the hose, place a hose
washer (not included) on the gar-
den hose before installing to the
pump.
3. For best pump performance,
unwind the hose before starting the
pump. This will help remove any
kinks or binds in the hose and allow
the unit to pump with less
restriction.
4. Set the pump on a hard surface in
the water. Do not set the pump
directly on mud or sand surfaces.
This will cause the inlet screen to
clog.
5. The water level must be at least 1/2
inches for the pump to operate.
Water levels less than 1/2 inches will
not allow the impeller to contact
water and no water will be
pumped.
