 Please read the instructions thoroughly before using the pump! Otherwise you may not use it!

This appliance is not suitable for use by persons (including children) with limited physical, sensory or mental 

capabilities or lacking experience and/or knowledge, except if they are supervised by a person responsible 

for their safety or have been instructed in the use of the appliance.

Children should be supervised in order to make sure that they do not play with the appliance.

Construction

These modern, powerful pumps are equipped with a single-phase alternating-current motor (canned motor 

with capacitor). The motor is waterproof encapsulated in synthetic resin (IP68) and provided with an 

overload protection.

Please refer to the type plate for technical specifi cations or the table on page 2 + 3.

Use

These pumps are designed for the transport of water, for the operation of fi lter systems,water displays, 

waterfalls, etc., as well as for oxygenating and circulating the water.

Area of application: garden ponds, fi shponds, outdoor and patio fountains!

 

Attention!

 Use in garden ponds and their protected zone is permitted only if the installation is 

performed in compliance with the applicable regulations. Please consult a licensed electrician.

Before performing any work on the pump, the fountain, or the pond, disconnect the mains

plug. Do not operate the pump if people are in the water! (disconnect the pump from the power

source)

Area of application: swimming pond or swimming pool (if people are in the water)!

 

Pump suitable for installation and operation in systems and rooms according to DIN VDE 0100 Part 702 and 

Part 737, if the erection requirements per DIN VDE 100 and the manufacturer’s specifi cations (assembly 

and operating instructions) are followed.

Installation of these pumps at swimming ponds or swimming pools must comply with the following 

standards: DIN EN 13451 Part 1 to Part 8, and DIN VDE 0100 Part 702 and Part 737.

Attention! Here operation of the pump is permitted only if the pump is permanently installed outside 

of the water at least 2 m or more away from the pool.

The following measures must be undertaken: 

(see fi g. 2)

-  Build a shaft with pedestal for the pump, 

at least 2 m away from the edge of the water.

-  Protect the shaft with a cover.

-  To protect the pump from fl ooding build a drain for the shaft.

-  Attach the pump to the pedestal with screws.

-  Install a “M” metal socket  in the suction line, toward the pump, to connect to the equipotential bonding

of the swimming pond/swimming pool system!

-  Please consult  a licensed electrician. Also refer  to “Non submersible use” and “Safety Measures.”

Safety measures

-  Before use: Check whether mains lead and plug are intact.

-  Mains voltage and kind of current have to conform to the information on the type plate.

The pump may only be connected to a proper earthing-contact type socket through a residual

current device (RCD, 30 mA).

The connection box should be located in a water-protected area and at least 2 m away from the

edge of the water (see fi g. 1).

-  Always keep the plug dry.

Important!

 If the mains lead or the motor housing are damaged, the pump cannot be used anymore. It 

cannot be repaired since the lead is permanently encapsulated in the motor housing.

-  Do never hang up or transport the pump by the mains lead.

 Start-up (see fi g. 1 - 3)

Important! Do not let the pump run „dry“. This could cause damages to the appliance.

-  Immerse the pump completely in your pond. This causes the pump body to be fi lled with water.

-  A minimum water depth of 25 cm is required for underwater operation to avoid the pump taking in air.

-

The maximum depth for submerged operation of the 

2 m

  pump is 2 m!

-  The water temperature may not exceed 35°C.

-  The pump must be protected from frost.

-  The pump is switched on by putting the plug in the socket.

-  To prevent the pump becoming unnecessarily dirty, place it above the sludge deposits in your pond, in a

fi rm and horizontal position (on a stone slab)!

-  A range of accessories may be fi tted onto the threaded connections of the pump.

 -  The supplied screen inserts are suffi cient as protection from intake in clear water.

GB

-  Depending on the fi eld of use, the outlet side can be mounted upwards or siedewards. Carry out step

1 - 3 Dismantling and step 6 - 8 Assembly!

-  Suitable fountain jets can be found in our range of accessoires 

(catalog)

.

“Non submersible use” (see fi g. 2 + 3)

The pump can be used in a nonsubmerged type application.

-  Position the pump below the surface of the water, at the side of the pond so that the water can fl ow into

the pump (not self-priming).

 -  Remove strainer insert (8) 

(see fi g. 5)

.

-  Connect suction hose (S) and pressure hose (D) to the pump. Connection should be watertight.

-  Suction hose and pump must be fi lled with water before switching-on.

TIP!

 To prevent the pump becoming clogged, provide the suction hose with a pre fi lter 

Art.-No. 168 / 009051

 covered in our range of accessories.

Overload protection

In case the pump is becoming overheated the built-in thermal overload trip switches it off.

The pump must cool down.

The pump will not start automatically without the necessary controlling when it is cool.

Check the following operating conditions:

-  Is there a suffi cient water supply?

-  Has the fi lter become clogged?

-  Has dirt entered the pump housing (Follow the cleaning instructions below)?

-  Have hoses or jets become clogged?

-  Has the pump cooled down?

As soon as you have solved the problems, you can switch on the pump again by pulling the plug out of the 

socket and putting it in again  after a short time (1 min.)

 Dismantling (see fi g. 4 - 9)

1.  Follow the safety measures. 

Disconnect pump from mains!

2. Grasp the two clips (20 + 21) on the front of the pump, on the lower end, and turn them upward and 

forward.

3.  Push the two fl aps at the front side of the pump inwards. Lift and remove upper shell (1). Now the 

screen inserts on the front (8), on the right side (7) and on the left side (5/6) work loose.

4.  Remove the entire pump (10) with pump housing (12) from the lower shell (2).

5.  Loosen the 4 screws (18).

6.  Pull apart pump housing (12) and motor housing (10).

7.  Remove rotor assembly (15) from motor housing (10). Take care of the O-ring (16) on the motor 

housing (10).

8.  Clean all parts with clear water and a soft sponge. 

Note!

 In case of massive calcination please use 

Messner decalcifi er for pumps 

art.-no. 168 / 009115

.

Assembly (see fi g. 4 - 9)

1.  Push the O-ring (16) onto the starting point on the motor housing (10).

2.  Carefully slide the rotor assembly (15) into the motor housing (10) and twist the bearing cover so that

the two holes fi t onto the pins on the motor housing (10).

3.  Check whether the rotor assembly can be rotated easily.

4.  Check the position of the O-ring (16) on the motor housing (10).

5.  Put the pump housing (12) on the motor housing (10) and attach it fi rmly and evenly with the 4 

screws (18).

 6.  Put the pump (10) into the lower shell (2) in the desired position (the out let of the pump housing (12)

directed upwards or sidewards).

7.  Attach the upper shell (1) to the rear hook of the lower shell (2) and lock it into the front fl aps.

8. Grasp the two clips (20 + 21) on the lower end and turn them to the rear, this locks the upper shell (1)

and the lower shell (2). 

9.  Insert the respective screen inserts into the openings on top (3 or 4) and on the left (5 or 6) or on the 

front (8) and on the right (7).

Maintenance

In order to prolong the service life of your pump signifi cantly and to keep it in sound operating condition, it is 

recommended to carry out maintenance and cleanup regularly.

This can be done by everyone, quickly and easily. 

See „Dismantling/Assembly“

Servicing intervals

-  In the beginning check proper performance of your pump every day. If necessary, clean the fi lters.

-  Since servicing intervals (complete cleaning) will vary depending on the level of pond pollution, repeat the 

periodic service to your pump in accordance with the pollution of the pond water .

Should you determine that there are 

damaged or worn parts

, replace them. 

See „Spare parts“

Important! When used in calcareous water, the rotor assembly (15) and the stainless steel can split 

tube in the motor housing (10) should be cleaned at regular intervals.
