For submerging or lifting / securing the pump, fix a rope
to the pump’s carrying handle.
Extension cables must meet the requirements of
DIN VDE 0620.
In Austria
In Austria the electrical connection must satisfy the
ÖVE-EM 42, T2 (2000)/1979 § 22 to § 2022.1.
This requires that pumps used for swimming pools and
garden ponds may only be powered through an isolating
trans former.
v
Please ask your electrician for his advice.
In Switzerland
In Switzerland mobile appliances which are used out-
doors, must be connected via a residual-current device.
Visual check
v
Before operating the pump, first make a visual check,
if there is any damage of the pump (esp. regarding
power cable and plug).
v
Observe the minimum water level and the max. delivery
height (see 7.TECHNICAL DATA).
DANGER! Electric shock!
A damaged pump must not be used.
v
In case of damage, please have the pump checked by
our GARDENA Service Centre.
Manual operation
During manual operation, the pump must be switched off
as soon as all the liquid has been pumped away.
v
Observe the pump at all times during manual opera-
tion.
Notes on use
Dry-running operation causes increased wear and is to
be avoided. Therefore, in manual operation the pump
must be immediately unplugged when water fails to flow.
Avoid running of the pump for more than 10 min. against
closed delivery side of the pump.
Sand and other abrasive substances cause increased
wear and reduce the pump’s output.
Take care that the pump is located where the inlet open-
ings at the suction base are obstructed neither completely
nor partly.
Stand the pump on a brick if using in a pond.
Leaking lubricants can contaminate the pumped liquid.
Instructions for submersible pump 7000
When you purchase your pump the swivel feet are set
to the flat suction position (1 mm).
v
For normal operation, turn the feet 180° to 5 mm.
The pump is lifted 5 mm.
v
Clear the outlet line before use.
Thermal protection switch
The pump is automatically switched off on overheating
by the built-in thermal motor protector. After having
cooled down, the motor automatically switches on again
(see 6. TROUBLESHOOTING).
Automatic deaerating valve [ Fig. S1 ]
The automatic deaerating valve eliminates any air pockets
in the pump.
If the pump is half submersed, water may come out of the
ventilation holes

.
This is not a defect of your pump, but serves to deaerate
the pump.
