8. Maintenance guidelines
This submersible pump is an approuved,
maintenance-free high quality product, which is
subject to severe final controls.
We recommend, regular inspection and maintenance
to ensure long equipment life and uninterrupted
operation.
Important! Note!
Remove the mains plug before all maintenance
work.
In the event that the pump is often transported in
the course of operation, it should be
cleaned out with clear water after every use.
In case of stationary installation, the function of
the loating switch should be checked every 3
months.
All fibrous particles which may have built-up inside
the pump housing should be removed with a water
jet.
Every 3 months the shaft
ground and as should be
cleaned from mud.

9. Function of the integrated floating
switch
Automatic mode:
Selector switch (A) must be in the lower position
during automatic mode (Fig. 2).
This activates the integrated floating switch. The
height of activation is approximately 14 cm. The
pump switches off again when a height of
approximately 6 cm is reached.
Manual mode/shallow water:
Selector switch (A) must be in the upper position to
operate manually or in shallow water (Fig. 3). This
bridges the integrated floating switch so that the
pump runs continuously.
Water can be pumped down to 5 mm in manual
mode.
Please note:
The depth of water must be at least 60 mm
before the pump can be run in manual mode!
Important!
The pump must not run dry!
