3. Connexions de segell: Wrap Teflon tape around the threaded connections of the discharge pipe to ensure a watertight seal.
4. Install PVC Pipes: Securely attach the prepared PVC discharge pipe to the pump's 2-inch NPT discharge outlet.
5. Posició de la bomba: Place the pump in the sump basin or sewage well, ensuring it is stable and fully immersed.
6. Connectar l'alimentació: For automatic operation, connect the pump's plug to the float switch plug, then plug the float switch into a grounded power outlet. For manual operation, plug the pump directly into a grounded power outlet.

• Funció manual: Connect the pump's power plug directly to a power outlet. The pump will operate continuously as long as it is powered. Ensure the pump remains fully submerged to prevent damage.

The pump is ideal for various applications:

• Basement drainage
• Sump basin sewage wells
• Dirty pond water removal
• Sewage well pumping
