Machine Description and Intended Use

This machine is a submersible water pump. The Wacker Neuson 
Submersible Pump consists of an electric motor, an impeller, a strainer, 
and a metal casing with ports for water suction and discharge. Power is 
supplied to the pump through a corded plug or a hard-wired connection, 
depending on the installation. The operator connects hoses to the pump 
and routes them so that water is pumped from the work area and 
discharged into an appropriate location.

This machine is intended to be used for general de-watering applications. 
This machine is intended for the pumping of clear water, or water 
containing solids up to the size stated within the product’s specifications, 
and up to the flow, head, and suction lift limits also stated within the 
product’s specifications.

This machine has been designed and built strictly for the intended use 
described above. Using the machine for any other purpose could 
permanently damage the machine or seriously injure the operator or other 
persons in the area. Machine damage caused by misuse is not covered 
under warranty. 
The following are some examples of misuse:

Pumping flammable, explosive, or corrosive fluids

Pumping hot or volatile fluids that result in pump cavitation

Operating the pump outside of product specifications due to 
incorrect diameter hoses, incorrect length hoses, other inlet or 
outlet restrictions, or excessive suction lift or head

Using the machine as a ladder, support, or work surface

Using the machine to carry or transport passengers or equipment

Operating the machine outside of factory specifications

Operating the machine in a manner inconsistent with all warnings 
found on the machine and in the Operator’s Manual.

This machine has been designed and built in accordance with the latest 
global safety standards. It has been carefully engineered to eliminate 
hazards as far as practicable and to increase operator safety through 
protective guards and labeling. However, some risks may remain even 
after protective measures have been taken. They are called residual 
risks. On this machine, they may include exposure to:

Electric shock from improper electrical connections or high volt-
age

Personal injury from improper lifting techniques

Projectile hazard from discharge
