HIGH FLOW
WATERFALL PUMP
BENEFITS
S
uitable for filtration, waterfalls and circulation in bodies of water, such as outdoor garden ponds,
fresh water aquariums. aquaculture and indoor or outdoor water fountains.
• Your pump has a single moving part (impeller assembly) enabling easy cleaning and maintenance.
• The pump has intelligent circuitry that analyses the speed and torque of the motor. It will increase
and decrease the energy usage to maximise efficiency. The soft start nature of the motor helps
to avoid sudden pressure surges causing pipes to blow off. The intelligent system will change the
motor speed to maximise the flow of water when hot, due to the lack of water flow through the
motor.
• The motor and electrical components are totally encapsulated in epoxy resin, ensuring safe
operation under water.
• The pump has a robust bearing and shaft design so no oil/grease lubrication is required.
• PondMAX Filtration & Waterfall Pumps are heavy-duty reated and design for continuous use.
• Any damage to the equipment or unmerited
operation will bring dangers to the surrounding
precincts. If there is any damage of the
equipment, it must not be used and should be
placed out of reach of children.
• For your own safety, disconnect the pump from
the power supply before any maintenance of
any equipment is performed. This includes
maintenance to the tank or pondliner. 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 6ft.
• 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.
• Always use a properly grounded power supply
that is connected to a GFCI with a rated
residual operating current not exceeding 30mA.
• To avoid an electric shock, do not attach the
plug to the power supply socket with wet
hands. On installation, 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. Immediately 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 cut the cable as this will result in
voiding your warranty.
• 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
(35°C).
• 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 the user)
