Carry out any and all adjustments and operations
necessary to assemble your pump correctly. If you have
any questions or difficulties in doing so, contact your
official distributor.
While your Pump is operational
This pump has been designed to pump clean liquids with
a maximum temperature of 35°C.
Do not, under any circumstances, use the pump with
corrosive, abrasive, easily combustible or explosive
substances (such as petrol, diesel, benzene / thinner),
grease, oils, salt water and sewage (toilets and urinals).
Do not use the pump on liquids that contain sand.
Sand causes and increases pump (especially
turbine) wear and reduces flow.
Control and safety features installed on the pump must
not be removed or tampered with.
Operating Instructions
Carefully start the pump following the instructions for
usage in the instruction manual. Following these
instructions while using the pump reduces the risk of
injury.
Avoid using the pump if the water outlet is either
partially or completely blocked.
Avoid running the pump dry. Operating the pump
without water damages the seals. The pump should
shut down immediately if it detects a water shortage.
The pump automatically shuts down if it overheats,
which is detected via the heat sensor which is inside the
motor. Once cool again, the engine will restart
automatically.
To turn the pump off, unplug the power cable from the
socket. Do not pull on the power cord itself.
To prevent frost damage, store the pump in a dry
place. If the pump is permanently installed
outdoors, before using it in Winter check the
turbine chamber for ice;
