Check the power cord and plug for damage before using the pump.
Important: if damaged, do not use the mains cable or engine housing.
Repair is not possible since the cable is moulded into the motor and is
therefore not replaceable.
Do not move or suspend the pump by the power cord.
Keep the plug dry. To prevent water from running from the cord to the
plug, suspend the cord in a U-shape. (see figure 4.)
When working on the pump, always unplug from the electrical outlet to
cut off the power supply.
The pump may only be used if it has an adequate supply of water.
The pump may only be used for pumping fresh water, without any
chemical additives or other aggressive components, with a maximum
temperature of 35°C.
Commissioning the pump when installing in water (figures 1 and 5).
Important: Do not run the pump dry as this may damage the pump.
Place the pump in the water to fill it up.
To avoid unnecessary contamination, place the pump on solid stone tiles
to prevent it from standing in and ingesting sludge.
Make sure that the water is at least 10cm deep to prevent the pump
from sucking air.
Maximum immersion depth of the pump is 2 m under water.
Assemble the accessories on the cable connection to the pump.
Start the pump by inserting the plug into the socket.
The pump power can be adjusted via the blue turntable on the front of
the suction basket. Switch off the pump when you want to adjust the
pump power and switch it on again to check whether the correct setting
is reached.
Care should be taken to protect the pump from frost and freezing.
Commissioning the pump in dry installation conditions:
(figures 2)
The pump can also be installed out of the water.
Remove the pump suction basket.
Place the pump underwater next to the pond so that water can flow into
the pump (the pump will not suck in water of its own accord).
Connect a suction hose/pipe (Z) and pressure hose/pipe (D) to the pump
and ensure they are air and watertight.
In order to use the pump, the suction hose/pipe (Z) must have been
filled with water.
Start the pump by inserting the plug into the socket.
Tip: to protect the pump against contamination, the suction side must
be fitted with a pre-filter.
Care should be taken to protect the pump from frost and freezing.
