Servicing!
Disconnect the power outlet before making any adjustments or performing servicing operations.
The pump does not require any specific maintenance but for longer life we recommend that you
check and clean the area in which the pump is installed (every three months, for example).
For temporary use, clean the pump with clean water after using it.
Cleaning the turbine
(Remove the plug from the power outlet before cleaning operations start)
If there are heavy deposits in the pump body, the lower part must be dismantled as follows:
1. Remove the 4 screws from the lower side of the suction basket.
2. Detach the suction basket from the body of the pump.
3. Clean the pump with clean water.
Warning! Do not put down the pump on the turbine nor hold it by this point either!
4. For reassembly, repeat the above operations in reverse order.
Setting the switch point
The float switch point can be set by adjusting the notches.
Check the following points before switching on:
·
The float switch must be installed so that the
switch point level can be reached easily with very little effort. Make sure of this as follows:
immerse the pump in a container full of water and lift the float switch carefully by hand, then
lower it. You can thereby check that the pump starts and stops.
·
Make sure that the gap between
the head of the float switch and the float switch anchorage device is not too small. If the gap is
not wide enough, perfect operation is not guaranteed.
·
Concerning adjustment, make sure that the
float switch does not touch the floor before the pump has stopped. Warning! Risk of running dry.
·
To modify the starting level, slide the float cable into the notch provided for the purpose on the
handle.
