•  Periodic maintenance of the bridge saw will 

prevent unnecessary problems. Keep the 

ventilation slots of the bridge saw clean to 

prevent overheating of the motor. 

•   Dry the bridge saw as much as possible 

after using.

Pump Maintenance

Warning! — Always disconnect from electrical 

outlet before handling the pump.

•  Do not let the pump run dry.
•  Do not lift the pump by the power cord.
•  Do not pump heated liquids.
•  Operate in freshwater only.
•  Operate pump completely submerged for 

proper cooling.

FIGURE 16

A clogged or dirty intake cover will greatly 

reduce performance. If the pump is used in  

dirty water, raise it slightly to reduce the amount 

of debris contacting the intake. If  

less flow is desired, adjust the flow regulator  

on the front of the pump.
 Do not let the pump run when not submerged in 

water. Doing so may damage the pump. Always 

submerge the pump first, and then plug in the 

electrical outlet. If the pump does not function 

straight away, switching the power on and off 

several times will normally correct this.
To clean the pump, remove the intake cover 

and the impeller. Use a small brush or stream of 

water to remove any debris.

TROUBLE SHOOTING

If The Pump Fails To Operate,  

Check The Following:

•  Che

ck the circuit breaker and try another power  

source to ensure the pump is getting electrical  

power. 

NOTE:

 Always disconnect from 

electrical outlet before handling the pump.

•  

Check the pump discharge and tubing for kinks  

and obstructions. Algae build up can be flushed  

out with a jet of water.

•  

Check the intake cover to ensure it is not  

clogged with debris.

•  

Remove the intake cover to access the  

impeller area. Turn the impeller to ensure it is  

not broken or jammed. 

•  

Monthly maintenance will add to your 

pump’s life. 

NOTE:

 Ensure that the electrical cord loops  

below the electrical outlet to form a “Drip  

Loop.” This will prevent water from running  

down the cord into the electrical outlet. 

Replacing The Pump

If the pump still does not work, you have to 

replace pump with a new one. Only use the pump 

recommended by the manufacturer of the bridge 

saw. Call the Technical Helpline on 01253 789180 

or return to location of purchase.
The changing procedures are as follows:
1. Loosen the bolt of the pump connecting box 

located on one end of main frame and remove 

the cover.
2. Loosen the bolt of the pump cable lock and 

take the pump plug out of connecting box (see 

FIGURE 17).

3. Take out the pump and replace a new one, 

install the new pump by reversing the above 

procedures.
