POND & FOUNTAIN
PUMPS
BENEFITS INCLUDE
• PondMax Pond & Fountain Pumps are suitable for
use in many different applications including ponds,
fountains and other water feature applications. The
pumps can be used in either submersible or in-line
applications.
• Your pump has a single moving part (an impeller),
enabling easy cleaning and maintenance.
• The motor is totally encapsulated in epoxy resin,
ensuring safe operation under water.
• Your pump is magnetically driven and relies on water
to cool and lubricate it. Therefore no harmful oil or
grease lubrication is required.
• PondMax Pond & Fountain Pumps are continuous
rated, therefore are designed to operate 24/7.
• An optional fountain kit can be purchased and fitted
to the models PV250 – PV550 pumps. When using
with a fountain kit, it is strongly recommended to
purchase a optional PondMAX SP250 Submersible
Prefilter. This assists in straining the particles in the
water, to assist the fountain nozzles from becoming
blocked up with debris. See your retailer for
availability or more information.
• Any damage to the equipment or unmerited operation
will bring dangers to the surrounding precincts. So if
there is any damage of the equipment, it must not be
used. The equipment should be placed out of reach of
children.
• For your own safety, disconnect from the power supply
before any maintenance of any equipment is attempted
on the tank or water body. Always unplug the pump
from the power supply when not in use. Never pull the
cable to disconnect the plug from the power supply -
grasp the plug and pull to disconnect. If required, have
a qualified electrician install a weatherproof power
supply point near to the pond or water-feature (within
the cable length of the appliance).
• Be sure the equipment is submerged completely in the
water. The depth should not be greater than 6.5Ft.
• Do not operate the pump if the appliance or any
components of the system, such as the power cable,
have been damaged. Check appliance for defects
regularly.
• For safety, plug the pump into an electrical outlet with
a (GCFI) Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter.
• To avoid an electric shock, do not attach the plug to the
power supply socket with wet hands. The drip loop
method should be used to prevent water from traveling
down the cable and onto the plug or power supply.
If the plug does get wet, do not unplug the cable.
Disconnect the circuit breaker that supplies power to
the power supply point. Then unplug and examine the
plug and power supply point for presence of water. If
the power point has become wet, you should consult an
electrician before using the power point again.
• Do not install or store the appliance where it will be
exposed to extreme hot or cold temperatures. Do not
use in water above 95°F.
• Do not cut the cable as this will result in voiding your
warranty.
• Care should be taken to arrange the power cable so
that it cannot be accidentally tripped over or pulled.
• Do not attempt to repair the electrical appliance
yourself. Return to an authorized service centre or
place of purchase if a fault occurs, (regular
maintenance is not considered repair and is required by
user).
IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
Correct and safe use of the system requires strict compliance with the safety instructions. For
safety reasons, persons less than 16 years of age that are not familiar with these instructions should
not use this equipment.
