nance work
The operator must ensure that all installation and
maintenance work is carried out by authorised
and qualified personnel who are sufficiently
informed from their own detailed study of the
operating instructions.
Work on the product/unit must only be carried out
when at a standstill. It is mandatory that the pro-
cedure described in the installation and operating
instructions for shutting down the product/unit
be complied with.
Immediately on conclusion of the work, all safety

uct/personnel and will make void the manufac-
turer's declarations regarding safety.
Modifications to the product are only permissible
after consultation with the manufacturer. Original
spare parts and accessories authorised by the
manufacturer ensure safety. The use of other
parts will absolve us of liability for consequential
events.
2.8 Improper use
The operating safety of the supplied product is
only guaranteed for conventional use in accor-
dance with Section 4 of the operating instruc-
tions. The limit values must on no account fall
under or exceed those specified in the cata-
logue/data sheet.
3. Transport and interim storage
When receiving the material, check that there has

4.1 Application
The Initial DRAIN series drainage and submersible
waste water (except rigid particles) pumps are
used:
• for the automatic drainage of pits and shafts,
• for keeping dry yard areas and basement rooms
exposed to flooding,
• for lowering surface water, if the waste water is
not able to flow off into the sewer system
through natural fall.
The pumps are suitable for pumping slightly con-
taminated water, rainwater, drainage water and
washing water.
The pumps are usually installed under water (sub-
merged) and can only be installed vertically.
Submersible pumps with a mains connection
cable of less than 10 metres are (according to EN
60335) only permitted for use inside buildings, i.e.
not for operating outside.
DANGER! Mortal danger due to electric shock!
The pump many not be used to drain swimming
pools / garden ponds or similar places if anyone is
in the water.
WARNING! Hazardous to health!
The pump many not be used to drain swimming
pools / garden ponds or similar places if anyone is
in the water.
CAUTION! Danger of property damage!
Pumping unpermitted substances can lead to
product damage.
The pumps are not suitable for water with coarse
contamination such as sand, fibres or com-
bustible, caustic fluids or for use in potentially
explosive areas.
Correct use of the pump/unit also includes fol-
lowing these instructions.
Any use over and beyond these is interpreted as
incorrect use.
