Connect pressure line
• All connections must be sealed with hemp and
thick paste (Fermit) or thread sealing tape (e. g.
Teflon tape); leaks cause air exhaust and reduce
or prevent water exhaust.
• Hemp should be used in case of pipe threads
from metal; synthetic thread must be sealed with
thread sealing tape.
• All components of the presure line must be com-
pression-proof.
• All components of the pressure line must be pro-
fessionally installed.
Electrical connection
The device may only be operated under the following
conditions:
• The device may only be connected to outlets
with protective contacts that have been profes-
sionally installed, grounded and inspected.
• Mains voltage and fuse protection must comply
with the technical data.
• When operating in swimming pools, garden
ponds and similar places, the device must be
provided with a residual current of not more than
30 mA by means of a residual-current-operated
protective device.
• When operating outdoors, the electrical connec-
tions must be splash-proof; they must not lie in
water.
• Extension cords must have sufficient wire cross
section; cable drums must be complete
unwound.
Operation
Filling and intake [suction]
1. Unscrew filter housing (6) and remove filter.
2. Fill completely with water.
3. Reinstall filter and screw filter housing and seal
back on.
4. If you want to shorten the intake time, fill the suc-
tion line as well (only possible with the check
valve).
5. Open pressure line (turn on water spigot or noz-
zle), so that air can escape during intake.
6. Switch the device on.
7. When water runs out evenly, turn the device off.
Operation
The pump and suction line must be connected and
filled.
1. Plug in the mains plug.
2. Turn pump on at the On-Off switch.
3. Open pressure line (turn on water spigot or noz-
zle).
4. Check to be sure that water is coming out.
If the motor does not start up or the pump does not
build up any pressure or if similar faults occur, turn
the device off and try to remedy the error (

Faults
and remedial measures – p. 23).
Maintenance
Cleaning the filter
Depending on the contamination of the conveyed
water, the filter must be cleaned regularly.
NOTICE! Risk of damage to the device!
The suction line must be installed so that it
does not exert any mechanical force or ten-
sion on the pump.
DANGER! Risk of injury!
If the compo-
nents are not compression-proof or if they
are improperly installed, the pressure line
could burst during operation. Risk of injury
from liquid spurting out!
Note:
The device may only be used for
industrial water supply, e. g. from the toi-
lets, washing machine, etc.
It may not be used for drinking water sup-
ply.
DANGER! Mortal danger due to electric
shock!
Do not operate the device in wet
surroundings!
NOTICE! Risk of damage to the device!
The pump should be filled with water after
each new connection or in the event of
water loss or air intake. Extended operation
without a water refill (unsupervised dry run)
will destroy the pump!
Note:
We recommend installing a check
valve between the pump and suction line,
so that the water column remains in the
suction line.
We recommend using a suction filter for
better suction performance.

Accessories – p. 24
NOTICE! Danger of damage to the
device!
The pump must not be allowed to
run dry. Sufficient conveying medium
(water) must be on hand at all times.
NOTICE! Danger of damage to the
device!
Do not allow the pump to run
longer than 10 min. when the pressure line
is closed. Allowing it to run longer can result
in overheating and damage.
DANGER! Mortal danger due to electric
shock!
Disconnect the mains plug before
carrying out any work on the device.
DANGER! Risk of injury!
Make sure that
the device and connected accessories are
depressurized before carrying out any work
on the device.
NOTICE! Risk of damage to the device!
All gaskets must be renewed after each dis-
assembly of components.
NOTICE! Danger of damage to the
device!
If the conveyed water is highly con-
taminated, clean the filter after each use. A
stopped-up filter will damage the pump!
