Attention: All electrical products. Do Not Cut Cords.
Warranty Procedure: If you cut the cord, it will void the replacement warranty.
Modifying the cord on almost any electrical item will void the warranty because there's a lot that can go wrong with voltages.
In addition to that, there's no way to test the pump to determine what is wrong with it when the cord has been cut.
Running the pump dry will void the warranty.
~This is typical with all pump brands in the industry.~
