cord to the pump carrying handle ( 1).
Do not hang the equipment directly
by the curved tube or on the water
hose.
• You can adjust the height of the plastic
hook after loosening the height-adjust-
ment screw ( 16).
• When the water level is low, you can
also place the pump in the butt. If you
do, the shut-off tap must be above the
level of the edge of the container.
Power supply connection
The rain barrel pump you have acquired
is already fitted with a home office
(safety) plug. The pump is intended to be
plugged in to a home office socket with a
230 V ~ 50 Hz supply.
Switching on and off
1. Insert the plug in the socket. The
pump starts working immediately.
2. Open the shut-off tap
( 18).
3. To switch off, withdraw the plug from
the socket. The pump stops.
If the water level is too low, the
float switch will automatically
switch off the pump.
Supervise the appliance while it is
in operation in order to be immedi-
ately aware if the automatic cut-out
operates or the pump runs dry, to
limit any damage to a minimum.
Adjusting the float switch
Automatic mode:
The on or off switching point on the float
switch ( 5) can be continuously ad-
justed.
Loosen the screw on the float
switch height adjustment (2) and
bring it into the required position
(arrow has to show upwards).
Check the float switch (5). It must
be positioned so that it can lift and
lower freely. The switching point
heights “On” and “Off” must be
easy to reach.
Manual mode:
The pump runs continuously in manual
mode.
Position the float switch (5) as
shown.
Cleaning and storage
Clean and service your appliance on a
regular basis. This will guarantee its opti-
mum performance and a long service life.
Ask our service centre to carry out
any work that is not described in
these instructions. Use only origi-
nal parts.
Pull out the power plug before every
maintenance operation. There is a
risk of electrocution or of injury from
moving parts.
General cleaning work
• Clean the pump after every use with
clean water.
• Remove fluff or particles of fibre, which
may have found their way into the pump
