Use of the drum filter
Only use the filter when no body parts are in
contact with the water! Before you reach into the
water, always disconnect the filter from the power
supply. Compare the electrical specification on the
type label of the device with the specification of
the power supply. Make sure that the device is
connected to an ELCB (earth leakage circuit
breaker) with an assigned leakage rating of max.
30 mA (DIN VDE 0100T739). Only operate the
device on a correctly installed power plug.
Keep the power plug and the wiring dry! Make
sure that the cables are protected to prevent
damage and consequent short circuits.
THE WIRING OR THE POWER PLUGS MUST
NOT BE CUT. DOING SO WILL IMMEDIATELY
INVALIDATE ALL WARRANTY AND LIABILITY
OF THE MANUFACTURER.
Only use wiring, installations, adapters, extension
cables and connection cables with grounding-type
plugs, which are approved for outdoor usage (DIN

broken, the device may no longer be used! Take
care that power plugs never falls into water or
gets wet. If a plug gets wet,
it must be opened by a professional and cleaned

Operating the filter
NEVER USE THE DEVICE WITHOUT
WATER THROUGHPUT.
7.1
Placing the filter
You must carefully follow the instructions below to
work safely and prevent damage to the equipment.
•
Ensure that the substrate is levelled and sufficiently
robust; the filter weighs more than 400 kg when
operational. A concrete slab is the preferred option.
•
When checking if the waste pump or drum motor is
still working, the lid must always be closed. Never
put your hands in the filter or try to stop the drum
with your hands.
•
The waste pump must always be below the water
level before it is switched on. If not, it will be
irreparably damaged because of running dry or
overheating. The warranty will not cover damage to
the waste pump because the pump has run dry.
•
The electronics must be suspended in a dry and
appropriately ventilated room. The temperature of
the room where the electronics is suspended must be
between 2 and 30 °C. If the temperatures are higher,
the electronics cannot handle its own heat properly
and this may lead to damage.
