Before Operating Before using any tool, any part that appears damaged should be carefully checked to determine that it will operate properly and perform its intended function. Before operating your Submersible Mini Pump, check for damaged parts. Make certain that the power is OFF before plugging the tool in. Use grounded receptacle only for 120 Volt hook-up. Make certain to turn off and unplug the Pump when doing any maintenance. The tool should always be turned off and unplugged when not in use. Avoid contact with the pump once it is submerged. Do not touch the water once pump is submerged. If an electrical problem occurs, contact may result in serious harm or injury. Note: Performance of this tool may vary depending on variations in local line voltage. Never use an extension cord to power this unit. Grounding/Voltage Warning Common household current is volts. As long as the outlet used with the tool is rated from V there will be no complications using it with household receptacles. Plug the tool into a V properly grounded outlet protected by a 15-amp, dual element time delay or circuit breaker. NEVER try to plug a V tool into a V circuit or serious complications and possible injury to the operator may occur. The plugs have different shapes to prevent this. This tool has a three-prong plug. The third (round) prong is the ground. Cutting off the ground will result in a safety hazard and void the warranty. If the outlet you are planning to use is the two-prong type, do not remove or alter the grounding prong in any manner. Use an adapter and always connect the grounding plug to a known grounding source. It is recommended that you have a qualified electrician replace the two-prong outlet with a properly grounded three- prong outlet. Do NOT m o d i f y y o u r p l u g in a n y w a y.

Do not support the pump by the hose or discharge connection. The flow rate on the pump can be adjusted by rotating the Control dial (part # 1) located on the front of the pump. Turning the Control dial counterclockwise will increase flow. Turning the dial clockwise will decrease flow.
