SET-UP & INSTALLATION
WARNING!
This product is intended for pumping water in a home domestic application. Do
not use it for corrosive, abrasive, explosive or dangerous liquids. Fluids other than water
will damage the water pump and/or create a fire hazard.
WARNING!
Disconnect the plug from the mains power prior to making any adjustments or
installation
Your pump requires no assembly before use other than the connection of a suitable inlet/outlet hose
and hose connections (not included). Access to a 10 Amp electrical outlet is required.
• After removing the pump from its carton, check that the pump has not been damaged.
• Unpack the contents.
Note:
Use the handles (9) when lifting or moving the pump (Fig. 1).
Note:
Install the pump on a solid and level surface. Do not store or use the
pump in a vertical position. To ensure the most efficient operation, careful
planning is advised when installing the pump.
CAUTION:
It is recommended to have a 30mA residual current device connected when using
the pump.
Connecting Hose or Pipe to the Suction Inlet
1. Remove the plastic protection cover from the suction inlet (3) (Fig. 2).
Note:
It is recommended that you use a suction set with suction hose,
suction strainer (not included), in order to prevent long priming periods and
unnecessary damage to the pump as a result of stones and solid foreign
materials entering.
Note:
Teflon tape (not included) is recommended on threads to ensure a
water tight seal and prevent any leakage.
2. Insert a 1’’ male threaded hose adaptor (not included) into the suction
inlet (3) (Fig 3).
3. Securely attach the input hose or pipe (not included) to the threaded
insert (not included) and other end of the suction line (Fig. 4). Ensure
you have the correct diameter of hose or pipe that is compatible with
your water drawing source.
Note:
The input hose or pipe you are using should be a reinforced hose and
must have a minimum diameter of 25mm (1’’). A diameter of 32mm (1

recommended for suction heights exceeding 5 metres.
• Ensure the input hose or pipe is not restricted in any way and no
pressure is obstructing the input hose or pipe when the pump is in operation.
