In Austria pumps to be used in swimming
pools and garden ponds should be equipped
with a fixed connection line according to
ÖVE B/EN 60555 Part 1 to 3; power supply
should be via a ÖVE-tested isolating trans-
former whereby the secondary nominal volt-
age should not exceed 230V.
This device is not intended for use by per-
sons (including children) with reduced phys-
ical, sensory or mental abilities or lacking

Place the pump on a level, stabile surface in
the liquid to be transported, ensure that it is
standing firmly or immerse it using a rope
tied to the handle.
The suction area should not be blocked fully
or partially through the impurities.
The fluid level must be at least 3 cm (SCP 5000)
or 8 cm (SCDP 5000) for the pump to suck in au-
tomatically.
Î
Insert the mains plug into the socket.
In the automatic mode, the level switch automat-
ically controls the pumping operations. The
pump starts when the fluid level reaches a cer-
tain height.
The pump is shut off starts when the fluid level
falls to a certain level.
Ensure that the level sensor is not obstructed in
any way.
