earthing; the residual current circuit
breaking must be compliant with
the safety regulations of the energy
supply company and function with-
out fault,
- The protection of the electrical plug
connections from the wet.
- If there is a risk of flooding, fix the
plug connections in an area that is
safe from flooding.
• Ensure that the mains voltage matches
the specifications on the rating plate.
• The electrical installation shall be ac-
cording to national wiring rules.
• Connect the appliance to a power
socket with a residual current circuit
breaker of rated residual current no
more than 30 mA; minimum fuse 6 am-
peres.
• Before each use, check the equipment,
cable and plug for damage. Defec-
tive cables are not to be repaired, but
rather replaced by new ones. Have
damage on your equipment repaired
by an authorised specialist.
• If the power cable for this equipment is
damaged, it must be replaced by the
manufacturer, a customer service agent
of the same or a similarly qualified per-
son in order to prevent hazards. The
line must be minimum 10 m long.
• Do not pull the plug from the socket by
the cable. Protect the cable from heat,
oil and sharp edges.
• Do not carry or fix the equipment by
the cable.
• Use only extension cables that are pro-
tected from spray water and designed
for outdoor use. Always fully unroll
a cable drum before use. Check the
cable for damage. The flexible lead
cross-section of the extension cord must
at least 2.5 mm

.
• Disconnect the mains plug from the
socket before all work on the equip-
ment, in case of leaks in the water
system, during work breaks, and when
not in use.
Initial Operation
Positioning/Hanging
• The dimensions of the pump shaft must
be not less than 40 x 40 x 50 cm, in
order that the float switch (
7) can
move freely.
• The pump can be suspended by the
round handle (
1) or placed on the
shaft floor.
The pump can be suspended and/or
removed using the nylon cord (
11)
provided.
To hang up safely, loop the nylon cord
around both of the cable holders that
are pointing downwards and pull it up-
wards through the round handle.
Never suspend the pump by the hose.
Ensure that the equipment is
not hung up or held by the
mains cable. There is a risk
of electric shock from dam-
aged mains cables.
Note that, over time, dirt and sand
may collect on the bottom of the
shaft, which could damage the
pump.
We recommend standing the pump
on a brick.
If the water level is too low, the silt
in the shaft can quickly dry out and
impede the pump when warming
up.
