Installation

1. Install pump in a sump pit with

minimum size as shown in Figure 2.

Construct sump pit of tile, concrete,

steel or plastic.

2. The unit should be located and

rest on a solid, level foundation.

Do not place pump directly on clay,

earth, gravel or sandy surface. These

surfaces contain small stones, gravel,

sand, etc. that may clog or damage

the pump and cause pump failure.

Flood risk. If ﬂ exible

discharge hose is

used, make sure pump is secured in

sump pit to prevent movement. Failure

to secure pump could allow pump

movement and switch interference

and prevent pump from starting or

stopping.

3. Thread check valve (Blue Angel

offers Model 66005-BLA) into pump

body carefully to avoid stripping

or cross threading. Do not use pipe

joint sealant.

4. Connect 1-1/2 inch rigid pipe to

rubber boot on check valve. Reverse

boot for 1-1/4 inch diameter pipe.

Tighten hose clamps.

Support pump and

piping when

assembling and after installation.

Failure to do so could cause piping to

break, pump to fail, etc. which could

result in property damage and/or

personal injury.

5. Protect electrical cord from

sharp object, hot surfaces, oil

and chemicals. Avoid kinking the

cord and replace damaged cords

immediately.

IMPORTANT: Make sure there is

adequate room for the switch to

operate.

6. A sump pit cover must be installed

to prevent debris from clogging or

damaging the pump.

7. FOR BWSCAP MODELS ONLY:

Position pump switch AWAY from

the inlet so switch is clear from

incoming water (See Figure 3).

Operation

Always

disconnect

the power source before

attempting to install, service,

relocate or maintain the

pump. Never touch sump pump, pump

motor, water or discharge piping when

pump is connected to electrical power.

Never handle a pump or pump motor

with wet hands or when standing on

wet or damp surface or in water. Fatal

electrical shock could occur.

1. A ground fault circuit interrupter

(GFCI) is required.

Risk of electrical

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. Never cut

off the round grounding prong. Cutting

the cord or plug will void the warranty

and make the pump inoperable.

2. This pump is only for use on 120 Volt

(single-phase), 60 hz, 15 amp service

and is equipped with a 3-conductor

cord and 3-prong, grounding type

plug. Insert the float switch cord

plug directly into a 120 volt outlet.

3. Insert the pump power cord plug

directly into the back of the float

switch cord plug or solid-state water

sensor cord plug (See Figures 4a and

4b).

4. Fill sump with water. The pump will

start automatically when the water

has filled the sump to the cut-in

level. The pump will stop when the

water reaches the cut-out level. See
