Portable installation
The machine is fitted with a pump pedestal for this type of installation. It is fitted to the intake port
and ensures that the machine is in a secure position on a firm base. This installation type makes
optional positioning in the operating area possible. For use on a soft foundation, a hard base must
be used to prevent the machine from subsiding. A hose is connected to the discharge side.
With this type of installation, the machine must be fixed to the floor for longer operating times.
This prevents vibrations as well as guaranteeing quiet and low-wearing running.
The machine must be completely submerged in pumped liquid up to the
top edge of the pump housing.
- Place the machine upright.
- Attach the hose to the discharge port.
- Lay out the power supply cable.
- Have an expert connect the machine to the power supply and check the direction of rotation
in accordance with chapter 6.
- Fasten a chain or rope to the handle if necessary.
- Lift the machine and place it at the intended operating position (pit, shaft).
- Check that it is upright and standing on a firm base. Do not let it subside.
- Pull the power supply cable taut and lay it so that it cannot be damaged.
- Lay the hose so that it cannot be damaged. Fasten the hose wherever necessary (i.e. at a
drain).
- Start the machine in accordance with chapter 6.
Beware of burns
The housing parts can heat up to well above 40°C. There is a dan-
ger of burns. After switching it off, let the machine cool down to
ambient temperature.
