condition
with
a
long
life-span.
Simply
follow
these
easy
maintenance
steps
below
periodically
or
if
the
pump
stops
working.
1.
Disconnect
the
pump
from
the
power
sources
&
move
it
to
a
dry
safe
place.
2.
Unclip
the
base
pre-filter
so
that
you
can
take
out
the
pump
Impeller
to
clean
it
&
the
housing.
3.
On
the
pump,
release
the
impeller
cover
guard
&
take
out
the
vortex
rotor
assembly
from
pump
body.
4.
Clean
all
the
parts
with
running
water.
5.
After
cleaning,
assemble
the
rotor
carefully
and
return
to
the
pump
body
making
sure
that
the
2
locating
holes
on
the
impeller
cover
&
the
2
locating

on
main
body
fitted
together
snugly
before

Winter
Care:
If
you
pond
freezes
over
during
winter,
the
pump
should
be
removed
from
the
pond,
cleaned
and
stored
properly.
We
recommend
storing
the
pump
in
a
bucket
of
water.
This
is
to
prevent
the
bearings
from
drying
out
and
potentially
seizing.
This
is
especially
important
if
you
have
been
using
your
pump
in
a
hard
water
area.
The
water
will
help
dissolve
the
calcium
or
lime-scale
deposits.
You
can
add
mild
acid
solution,
such
as
vinegar
or
lemon
juice
to
the
water
to
be
more
effective.
Special
Care
for
hard
water:
if
you
live
in
a
hard
water
area
(water
with
high
levels
of
calcium
or
lime-scale
content),
the
pump,
rotor
assembly
and
steel
should
be
cleaned
at
regular
intervals.
The
cleaning
interval
required
will
vary
depending
on
the
hardness
of
your
water.
inspect
the
pump
periodically
for
signs
of
calcium
buildup.
to
clean
off
calcium
or
lime-scale
deposits,
a
small
nylon
bristled
brush
(such
as
tooth
brush)
may
be
used
on
the
body
of
the
pump
and
its
parts.
Dismantle
the
^pump
as
described
in
the
maintenance
section
above
and
remove
the
rotor.
Clean
the
lime-scale
deposits
from
the
rotor
with
fresh
clean
water
only.
Do
not
use
soap
or
any
abrasive
materials.
These
can
damage
the
pump
and
the
water
quality
of
your
pond.
If
there
are
excessive
calcium
deposits
that
have
built
up,
the
thermal
overload
protection
may
be
activated.
This
can
be
avoided
with
regular
care
and
cleaning
of
the
pump
and
your
pond.
