Cleaning, maintenance and storage
•
Under normal conditions, the water pump is maintenance-free.
•
Before carrying out any work on the device, remove the mains plug from the socket.
•
If the power cord is damaged, it must be replaced by a qualified electrician. Short-circuit
damage is not covered by the warranty.
•
Check the pre-charge pressure in the boiler every 2-3 months or when the pump starts after
a small water intake.
8.1 General cleaning work
•
Clean and maintain your device regularly. This ensures its performance and long life.
•
From time to time, clean the chambers by rinsing them with clean water to prevent them
becoming blocked by dirt.
•
After pumping raw water or rainwater or other fluids, flush the pump with clean water.
When using a suction filter (recommended!), clean it regularly.
•
Clean the controls with a dry cloth.
•
Never spray the device with water or immerse it in water.
•
Never use solvents such as gasoline, alcohol, ammonia water, etc. These solvents can
damage the plastic parts.
8.2 Clean check valve
•
Removing and installing filter.
•
Unscrew check valve and clean under running water.
•
Renew gasket if necessary.
•
Install check valve.
8.3 Eliminate blockages
•
If you pump contaminated fluids without an aspiration filter (pre-filter) - despite explicit
reference not to do so - the device may become clogged.
•
Remove the suction hose at the pump inlet.
•
Connect the pressure hose to the water pipe.
•
Rinse the pump and, if necessary, clean the suction filter.
•
Check by briefly switching on, if the pump turns free.
•
If you cannot eliminate the blockage, the pump parts must be disassembled and cleaned. Be
sure to have this work done by an authorized specialist.
8.4 Increase the pre-charge pressure
•
If the air pre-charge pressure in the boiler is too low, the pump will restart much faster and
damage to the equipment may occur. Therefore, check the pre-charge pressure regularly.
The pre-charge pressure cannot be read off on the pressure gauge!
•
Unplug the power plug.
•
Open the pressure line (taps, nozzles, etc.) and allow the water to drain completely.
•
Unscrew the plastic cap on the boiler, behind it is the air valve
•
Place an air pump with pressure gauge on the air valve.
•
Check the pre-charge pressure.
•
If necessary, pump air into the boiler.
•
Screw the plastic cap onto the boiler, connect the device and fill it.
•
Additional measures, in particular the opening of the pump, must be carried out by a
qualified electrician. In case of repair, always contact a service workshop.
