CAUTION
These pumps are not for use in swimming pools! Swimming in water being
circulated or oxygenated by these pumps poses a severe, imminent and
potentially fatal risk to human health.
These pumps should be installed per your local electrical code. Please contact
an electrician. For all technical data, please refer to the content stated on the
rating label of the pump.
Do not operate these pumps without water. If the pump runs, for any length of

Make sure that your outlet voltage corresponds to those stated on the
rating label of the pump(s).
Make sure the pump is securely installed before operating it.
The electrical connection should be in a water-proof area and should
be at least 6 feet away from the edge of the pond. (see fig. 1)
Keep the electrical connections dry! Droop the electrical cord below
the electrical outlet to form a “Drip Loop”. This will prevent water from
running down the cord into the electrical outlet
Always unplug the pump when not in use, before putting on or taking
