Petrol-driven Motor Pump
Purpose:
The GARDENA Petrol-driven Motor Pump is designed for
private use around the house and garden and is not intended
for operating watering equipment or irrigation systems in
public gardens.
The GARDENA Petrol-driven Motor Pump is designed for
pumping fresh water, rainwater and chlorinated swimming pool
water.
Please note:
The GARDENA Petrol-driven Motor Pump is not designed
for continuous operation (e.g. industrial applications,
continuous circulating operation).
Do not use your GARDENA Petrol-driven Motor Pump to
pump corrosive, easily combustible, aggressive, or
explosive substances (such as petroleum, or nitro thinner),
or food.
The temperature of the liquid pumped must not exceed
35 °C.
2. Safety instructions
v
Read the notes on safety on the
Petrol-driven Motor Pump.
DANGER OF
COMBUSTION
The motor and the exhaust system
become very hot during operation and
also remain hot for some time after
the motor is switched off.
v
Do not touch the motor and exhaust
system when hot.
RISK OF FIRE AND
EXPLOSION!
Petrol is combustible and explosive under
certain conditions.
v
Do not smoke or work with naked flames
or sparks when pouring petrol into the
fuel tank of your pump or in places where
petrol is stored.
v
During operation and until the motor
has cooled down completely, do not
place flammable materials (e.g. petrol)
and objects near the pump.
v
Do not overfill the fuel tank when filling
your pump with petrol.
v
Close the fuel tank securely after filling
your pump with petrol.
v
Wipe off any spilt petrol completely
before starting the motor.
v
Do not stand anything on the motor.
This could cause a fire.
RISK
OF
SUFFOCATION!
Exhaust emissions contain poisonous
carbon monoxide.
v
Do not breathe in exhaust emissions.
v
Never operate the pump in a closed room.
RISK OF INJURY FROM
SCALDING YOURSELF
with hot water!
During long periods of operation (> 5 mins.)
against the closed pressure side
(e.g. closed valve, closed dispensing unit
etc.), the water may heat up in the pump,
so that hot water may cause injuries.
v
Operate the pump for max. 5 minutes
against the closed pressure side.
v
Switch off the pump immediately after all
the liquid has been pumped.
Notes on use:
Allowing the pump to run dry increases the
wear and should be avoided.
v
Switch off the pump immediately after all
the liquid has been pumped.
Sand and other abrasive materials in the
liquid you are pumping cause increased
wear and reduce the performance of the
pump.
v
In the case of sandy water, use a pump
pre-filter.
v
Never operate the pump without the air
filter. (This causes the motor to wear
more quickly).
The minimum flow rate is 90 l/h (= 1.5 l/min).
Do not connect equipment with a lower flow
rate.
When using the pump to increase water
pressure, ensure that the inner pressure does
not exceed the maximum permissible inner
pressure of 6 bar (delivery side of the pump).
Add together the water output pressure you
want to increase and the pump pressure.
Example:
Pressure at the tap 2 bar.
Pump pressure 2.5 bar.
Total inner pressure 4.5 bar.
3. Initial Operation
Connect the suction hose:
The suction connection is equipped with a 33.3mm (G1) thread.
A vacuum-resistant suction hose must be screwed airtight onto
the suction side of the pump. Do not use garden hose connec-
tion system fittings. To prevent a blockage of or damage to the
turbine, the extraction filter
1
must be connected. In the case of
sandy water, use a pump pre-filter.
