DO NOT carry the pump by its electrical cable, or outlet pipe. Use the handle only (fig. 1).

When not in use switch off pump and remove plug from power supply. Rinse pump, drain out any water and store in a frost free, safe location.
p
WARNING!
DO NOT remove the label Test Made from the top of the pump and DO NOT tamper with or remove the test screw. To do so
will invalidate the warranty (fig. 2).
p
WARNING!
DO NOT allow uncontrolled discharge of contaminated water which would pollute the environment.
2. INTRODUCTION & SPECIFICATION
Fitted with automatic cut-out, stainless steel motor case and Noryl base cover. Suction pump designed to lift both clean water and 'dense' fluids. Water-cooled
motor is suitable for use in compliance with IEC standards and complies with insulation class B IP-X8 standards. Suitable for the effective drainage of cellars,
sinks, cisterns, baths and the general transfer of water and dense liquids.

WARNING! Ensure that you read, understand and apply the safety instructions in Section 1.
3.1.
Fit a discharge pipe to the pump outlet and secure with a clip. Ensure that the diameter of the discharge pipe is the same
as, or is greater than, the pump outlet diameter as a smaller pipe will adversely effect the pump flow rate.
3.2.
Position the pump in the water and secure the outlet pipe in the discharge receptacle or area.
The pump should be initially submerged with the discharge outlet facing up to release any trapped air.
3.3.
The float (fig. 3.1) will automatically turn pump on as the level of water rises (A). As water level lowers, the float will automatically
switch the pump off as it reaches the minimum level (B). The float may be adjusted by shortening or lengthening the cable.
3.4.
Plug the pump into the electrical mains supply and switch on. The pump will run if the water level is up to or above the
length of the float cable. To function correctly the float must move freely. Ensure that the float can do so and that
the cable is not restricted. Check that the pump and discharge are working correctly.
Note:
See fig. 4 to determine minimum clearance required if using pump in a restricted area i.e. well etc.
3.5.
The water into which the pump is placed will act as the motor coolant. For this reason the pump
must remain submerged at all times. Should the pump have to be used in shallow water, DO NOT
operate it for more than 10 minutes. Failure to follow this rule will damage the unit and will invalidate
your warranty. If for any reason the motor should overheat a thermal circuit breaker will automatically
activate and stop the pump. If this happens, switch the mains power off and unplug. Check reason for
overheating and remedy the problem. Should the pump not be switched off, the motor will remain
off for approximately 5 minutes and, when cooled, will automatically switch on again.

p
WARNING! With the exceptions listed below, all pump, float and electrical cable service maintenance
and repair must be undertaken by an authorised service agent only. Failure to observe this rule
may be dangerous and will invalidate your warranty.
p
p
WARNING! Ensure that the pump is disconnected from the mains power supply before attempting any service or maintenance.
4.1.
Keep all parts of the pump clean. Rinse, drain and allow to dry before storing pump.
4.2.
Regularly check the water inlet on the base of the pump to ensure there are no blockages. To access the impeller carefully undo the base hex headed
screws and remove base. Clean impeller and replace base ensuring that the O-ring is correctly located. DO NOT dismantle any other part of the unit.
Note:
The pump has a self lubricating oil-less motor, but a small amount of sealant is used to seal the unit. Should the pump seal be damaged the sealant may
leak and appear as a oily film on the surface of the water. The sealant is harmless to humans, but may effect pond life. In such an eventuality, switch the
pump off, remove it from the water and clear the oily film. Contact your local Sealey service agent for pump repair.
