3. Intended use

This submersible pump is designed for the delivery/feeding of water in a garden 

stream, fountain or similar. Via a hose connection, this pump is able to deliver water 

and is particularly suited for the feeding of streams. 

This pump is only suited for the delivery of normal water!  

A solar module with a minimum power of 80 W, a rechargeable battery with an opera-

ting voltage of 12 VDC or a DC power supply unit with a voltage of 12 to 18 VDC may 

be used as energy sources.  In case the pump is used with a solar module, the pump 

will only work if the solar module is exposed to sufficient solar radiation.  

The water pump does not have an on/off switch. The pump starts delivering water as 

soon as it is connected to the power supply and it´s in water. 

4. Assembly and activation

1.   Completely unroll the connecting cable on the stream pump. 
2.  The hose connection is suitable for various hose diameters (inside diameter  25, 

32 or 38 mm). Cut the hose connection according to the diameter of your hose 

by means of a saw. Attach the hose onto the outlet and secure it by means of a 

matching hose clamp (not included in the delivery).

3.  Mount the hose connection to the pump outlet by means of the enclosed gland 

nut. Via the ball joint, the hose outlet may, according to the circumstances, be 

adjusted under water.

4.  Completely immerse the stream pump into the water (in doing so, please pay 

attention to point 5.).

5.  Now supply the stream pump with energy. 

  For this purpose, please use the enclosed connector and cable (brown = positive 

pole, blue = negative pole). In case you bought the pump as a complete solar 

system, then the solar module is already equipped with the matching connector.  

Note: The connector is reverse polarity protected; please do not apply force when 

plugging it in. 

5. Protection against dry running

By standard, the pump is equipped with a protection against dry running. For this pur-

pose, there are two sensor points attached to the side of the pump body (not visible 

from the outside). The pump will work if those points are underwater. The pump does 

not work of one of the points protrudes from the water! 

6. Maintenance and care

In order to maintain the performance of the pump it is from time to time, depending 

on the water contamination, required to wash out the pump with warm water. For this 

purpose, open the body as follows:  
Note: Please do not apply force when assembling and disassembling the pump. The 

parts are were delicate and may break easily. 
1.  Unplug the connector of the pump. 

2.   Take the pump out of the water and twist off the hose connection.

3.   Press the two locks and open the pump case (fig. 1). 

4.   Take the pump out of the body.

5.  Take off the plastic pre-filter (fig. 2) and clean it with warm water. 

6.   Rotate the water outlet anticlockwise (fig. 3) by approx. 90° and take it off carefully 

(fig. 4).  

7.  Pull out the impeller wheel carefully (fig. 5) and clean all parts with warm water. 

8.  Clean the contacts at the side of the pump with a soft brush (fig. 6).

9.   After the cleaning, assemble the pump in reverse order.

The pump is ready to use again.

7. Malfunctions

The pump does not deliver any water

-   Is the pump completely immersed in the water? protection against dry running. 

(point 5)

-  Was the supply voltage connected with reverse polarity? Cable color brown = + 

(positive) pole, blue = - (negative pole).

-  Pump dirty? For the cleaning of the pump see point 6.

-  Capacity of the connected solar module or power supply unit sufficient?

-  The sun shines without shadow on the solar panel?
