Risks
After removing the packaging, check the pump for any damage. If in doubt do not use the pump and contact qualified
personnel. All packaging elements (such as plastic bags, polystyrene, etc.) must be kept out of the reach of children as the
material is potentially dangerous.
Before connecting the pump, check that the data on the nameplate corresponds to the local voltage ratings. The data is
available on the adhesive nameplate on the pump.
The electrical plant must be comply with any local regulations in the country where the pump is installed.
Observe some fundamental rules when using any type of electrical equipment, in particular:
Do not touch the equipment with wet or damp hands or feet;
Do not operate the pump without shoes (e.g. swimming pools);
Do not leave the pump exposed to atmospheric agents (rain, sun, etc.)
Do not allow the pump to be used by children or unskilled individuals without supervision.
In case of faults and/or bad pump operation, turn off the pump and do not tamper. For any necessary repairs contact our
specialized technical assistance centers and insist on the use of original spare parts. Any lack of respect to the above may
compromise pump safety.
If the user decides to make no further use of an installed pump, it is recommended to render the pump in operative and
disconnect it from the power supply.
If any liquid losses are present in the hydraulic system (due to O-ring seals, valves or piping breakages), stop the pump by
releasing pressure in the discharge tube and then proceed with maintenance operations using adequate safety measures (gloves,
goggles, overalls, etc.).
Assembly
All the pumps we produce are normally supplied fully assembled. For better clarification, consult the appendix at the end of
this manual where exploded assembly drawings and views of the pumps are available together with all components and their
nomenclature, for the user to have complete details of the pump components. These drawings are indispensable when searching
for malfunctioning or defective parts. Other drawings refer to hydraulic parts (pump header and valves) and are shown for the
same reasons in the appendix at the end of the booklet.
Dismantlement
To dismantle the pump or before performing pump maintenance, proceed as follows:
Make sure the pump is electrically deactivated (both poles) by disconnecting the conductors from the power supply
using the omnipolar switch which must have a minimum distance of 3mm between its contacts (Fig.3).
Relieve the pressure in the pump head and the discharge tube in the most adequate way possible (be very careful
during this operation).
Drain the liquid present in the pump head by disassembling and reassembling the pump head using the four fixing
screws, tightening torque 180÷200 N*cm (Appendix 1).
Please pay particolar attention to this last point and we recommend the user to consult the enclosed drawings and chapter

Warranty
2 years (normal wear on parts is excluded, i.e.: valves, fittings, piping ring nuts, piping, filter and injection valve). Improper
equipment use invalidates the warranty. The warranty is intended ex works or at an authorized distributor.
