or slip away!
2. Unscrew the screw plug.
3. Place a suitable tank to collect the operating fluid.
4. Drain the operating fluid: Rotate the pump until the opening points downwards.
5. Check the operating fluid:
⇒ If the operating fluid is clear, reuse operating fluid.
⇒ If the operating fluid is contaminated (black), fill with new operating fluid. Dis-
pose of operating fluid in accordance with the local regulations!
⇒ Notify customer service if an operating fluid contains metal chips!
6. Pour in operating fluid: Rotate the pump until the opening points upwards. Fill-in

Stationary wet well installation
NOTICE
Delivery problems due to water level being too low
If the level of the fluid is lowered too much, the volume flow can be interrupted. Air
cushions can also form in the hydraulics, which can lead to inadmissible operational
behaviour. The minimum permissible water level must reach the upper edge of the
hydraulics housing!
The pump is installed in the fluid for the wet well installation. For this, a suspension unit
must be installed in the chamber. On the pressure side, the on-site pipe system is con-
nected to the suspension unit and on the suction side to the pump. The connected pipe
system must be self-supporting. The suspension unit must
not
support the pipe sys-
tem!
CAUTION! If the motor emerges during operation, adhere to the operating mode for
non-immersed operation (S2-30, S3 25 %*)!
* Operating mode S3 50 % is permitted if the necessary motor cooling is guaranteed
before the motor is switched on again! To ensure the required cooling, the motor must
be completely immersed for at least 1 min.!
