streams, rain barrels, rainwater cisterns and
wells.
앬
Supplying water to the house.
Pumped media
Clear water (fresh water), rain water or mild suds /
service water.
Please note that our equipment has not been
designed for use in commercial, trade or industrial
applications. Our warranty will be voided if the
machine is used in commercial, trade or industrial
businesses or for equivalent purposes.
Note: The equipment is not allowed to be used to
convey drinking water.
4. Operating instructions
Basically, we recommend the use of a prefilter and
an intake set with an intake hose, an intake strainer
and check valve in order to prevent long repriming
times and any unnecessary damage to the pump
caused by stones and hard foreign bodies.

6. Electrical connections
Connect the power cable to a 230 V ~ 50 Hz
earthed, 10 amp fuse minimum.
The motor is protected against overloading or
blocking by an integrated thermostat. In the event
of overheating, the thermostat switches off the
pump automatically. The pump will start up again
automatically after it has cooled down.
7. Fitting a suction pipe
앬
No matter whether the suction line is a hose or
tube, it should have a minimum diameter of 1
inch. A diameter of 1 1/4“ is recommended for
suction heads of over 5 m.
앬
Fit the intake valve (foot valve) together with the
intake basket to the suction line. If this is not
possible you will have to install a non-return
valve in the suction line.
앬
Lay the suction line at an ascending gradient
from the water source to the pump. Be sure not
to take the suction line higher then the pump or
the priming operation will be delayed and
obstructed by air bubbles in the line.
앬
Fasten the suction and delivery lines so that they
exert no mechanical pressure on the pump.
앬
The suction valve should lie deep enough in the
water to rule out any dry running of the pump
when the water level drops.
앬
A leak in the suction line will draw in air and
obstruct priming.
앬
Avoid drawing in foreign bodies (sand, etc.); fit a
pre-filter if necessary.
8. Pressure line connection
앬
Attach the delivery line (min. 3/4“) either directly
to the pumpʼs pressure line connection (1“
female thread) or via a threaded nipple (see Fig.
1/item 2).
앬
With the right couplings it is also possible, of
course, to use a 1/2“ delivery hose. The smaller
delivery hose results in a lower delivery rate.
앬
During the priming operation, fully open any
shut-off mechanisms (spray nozzles, valves,
etc.) in the pressure line so that the air can
escape without obstruction.
9. Starting up
앬
Set up the house waterworks on a firm, level and
horizontal surface.
앬
Place the pump on a flat, firm surface. Secure
the equipment with screw fasteners suitable for
the surface in question.
앬
Fill the pump case with water through the
delivery line connection. Priming is accelerated if
the suction line is full.
앬
Tightly connect the suction and delivery lines.
앬
Close the delivery line.
앬
Connect up the pump - priming at max. suction
head can take up to 5 minutes.
