4. Тохиргоо ба суурилуулалт
Proper installation is critical for the performance and safety of your sewage pump. If you are unsure about any step, consult a qualified professional.
Суулгахын өмнөх хяналтын хуудас:
- Verify power supply (115 Volts).
- b-г хангахasin diameter is at least 18 inches.
- Gather necessary tools and plumbing fittings (2-inch FNPT discharge).
- Confirm the installation area is clear and accessible.
Суулгах алхамууд:
- Б бэлтгэasin: Сумпыг баталгаажуулах basin is clean and free of debris. The pump should rest on a solid, level surface at the bottom of the basin.
- Connect Discharge Piping: Attach a 2-inch FNPT discharge pipe to the pump outlet. Use appropriate sealant or tape to ensure a watertight connection.
- Шалгах хавхлагыг суурилуулах: Install a check valve in the discharge line above the pump to prevent backflow of water into the basin.
- Насосыг байрлуулах: Carefully lower the pump into the basin. Ensure the float switch can move freely without obstruction from the pump, basin walls, or piping.
- Цахилгааны холболт: Connect the pump's 10-ft. power cord to a dedicated 115 Volt, GFCI-protected outlet. The piggyback plug allows for automatic or manual operation.

5. Ашиглалтын заавар
The Red Lion RL-WC50TA operates automatically via its tethered float switch. It can also be manually tested.
Автомат ажиллагаа:
- The pump will activate when the water level reaches approximately 17.5 inches.
- The pump will continue to run until the water level falls to approximately 7.5 inches, at which point it will shut off.
- Ensure the float switch has a clear path of travel and is not restricted by any objects in the basin.

Manual Operation/Testing:
The piggyback plug design allows for manual testing of the pump. To operate manually, simply unplug the float switch plug from the wall outlet, then plug the pump's main power cord directly into the wall outlet. The pump will run continuously. To return to automatic operation, unplug the pump's main power cord and re-insert the float switch plug into the wall outlet.
Caution: Do not run the pump dry for extended periods in manual mode, as this can cause damage.
