4. ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
Check the voltage on the label on the electric engine of the pump with the supplied voltage; specifi cally, the
ground terminal must be connected to the supply cable.
The length of the supply cable, which is part of the pump, is restricted by the installation distance. If using an
extension cable, make sure that it is of the same type (e.g. H05 RN-F or H07 RN-F, depending on the specifi c
installation).
5. STARTING
Do not start the pump without fi lling it with liquid.
Fill the liquid into the output hole (Fig. 1, point 2) or the de-aerating hole (Fig. 1, point 3). Fill the liquid until it
starts to overfl ow through the hole. The fi lling ensures the good function of the mechanical sealing.
Dry operation of the pump causes damage to the mechanical sealing.
It is then necessary to screw the de-aerating closure or to connect the hose.
Insert the supply cable plug into an electricity socket with a voltage of 230 V.
Run the pump with the main switch in position I (Fig. 1, point 7)
Disconnect the pump by switching the switch into the position O
In the case of exhausting the water source, immediately disconnect the pump by putting the main switch into
the position O. Prevent dry running of the pump.
RISK OF FREEZING If the pump remains disconnected at a temperature lower than 0 °C, it is necessary to
be sure that there is no water remaining which, in the case of freezing, could cause the plastic parts to crack.
The remaining water can be discharged through the discharging hole (Fig. 1, point 6)
If the pump is used with substances that can create sediments or with chlorinated water, rinse it after use
with a strong stream of water to prevent the creation of sediments or incrustations??? which would have
a tendency to reduce the parameters of the pump.
6. MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
The pump does not require any type of maintenance. In all cases, repair and maintenance must only be carried
out after disconnecting the pump from supply network. In the case of restarting the pump into operation, make
sure that it is reassembled in the stated manner to prevent any risk to people.
