HOW TO USE:
- Float Placement: Position the 16-foot tethered float switch at the desired high water level within your sump pit, tank, or other application. Use the included zip ties to secure the float cable to a discharge pipe or other fixed point, ensuring the float can move freely up and down with the liquid level.
