Use the largest possible hose diameter in order to exploit the water capacity comple-
tely. Saw off the unused diameter(s) of the hose socket. Take care of proper sealing and
use Teflon tape and/or hose clips. Place the pump in the pond (maximum depth 1 m)
avoiding places with sludge.
Attention
Inspect the flex and the electric connecting points prior to use for any damage.
Take care that the plug and the receptacle are dry. For safety reasons any repairs to
the flex and the pump motor may only be carried out by Velda (see guarantee).
MAINTENANCE
Eco-Stream Stand pond pumps are equipped with asynchronous motors. These
motors have a long life-time and low energy use. The motors are entirely closed
watertight and in principle they are maintenance free. The built-in security device will
switch the motor off in case of overheating. Having cooled down for some time, the
motor will start again. Please remember that, as the occasion arises, the impeller
should be cleaned before putting the pump into use again.
Thermal security device
To prevent overheating and consequently damage to the motor, Velda Eco-Stream
Stand pumps have a built-in thermal security device. Remember, if the motor is
deactivated by overheating you should check the following points before starting the
pump again. Stop any activities on the pump. Always switch off the power voltage by
pulling the plug out of the receptacle.
!
Is the water supply to the pump sufficient?
!
Is the impeller, the hose, the hose sockets or the connecting pieces polluted?
!
Has the pump cooled down sufficiently before restarting it?
As soon as the above points have been checked and found to be in order, the pump
can be restarted.
Impeller
Not only to remove trouble, but also to be sure of a satisfactory water yield, the
impeller should be cleaned regularly. To this end you should proceed as follows :
!
Deactivate the power supply.
!
Remove the pump from the stand by removing the screws in the brackets.
!
Turn the 4 screws of the motor case loose.
!
Carefully remove the impeller from the motor case.
!
Clean all parts under freely running water, using a soft brush.
!
Assemble all parts in reverse order. Take care that the impeller will run smoothly
again in the motor housing and that the rubber ring is mounted in the right way.
USE IN WINTER
If the outside temperature does not go down below -5°C for a longer period of time, a
Eco-Stream Stand pump can also be normally used in winter, provided that the pump
is placed at least 40 cm below water level. In severe winters with temperatures lower
than -5°C it is to be recommended to remove the pump. Properly clean the pump
