Electrical safety

When using electric machines always observe the safety regulations applicable in your country to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock and personal injury. Read the following safety instructions and also the enclosed safety instructions.

Always check that the power supply corresponds to the voltage on the rating plate.

Connecting to the power supply

Check that the power supply and plug used in accordance with your machine. Have a look at the rating plate on the machine. Any changes should always be carried out by a qualified electrician.

• Warning! This machine must be earthed. If not properly earthed this machine can cause an electrical shock. Be sure that the power supply outlet is earthed. If there is any doubt, have it checked by a qualified electrician.
• Warning! Avoid contact with the terminals on the plug when installing (removing) the plug to (from) the power supply outlet. Contact will cause a severe electrical shock.

Replacing cables or plugs
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qual-ified persons in order to avoid a hazard. Immediately throw away old cables or plugs when they have been replaced by new ones. It is dangerous to insert the plug of a loose cable in the wall outlet.

Using extension cables

Only use an approved extension cable suitable
for the power input of the machine. The minimum conductor size is 1.5 mm². When using a cable reel always unwind the reel completely.

MACHINE INFORMATION

The pressure tank unit is intended for private use for household water supply and irrigation of gardens, it is not intended for commercial use. Explosive, corro-sive, flammable substances, sewage, salt water grease and oil must not be conveyed by the pump. It is solely intended for pumping clear and rain water. The particle sizes of the solids in the water must not exceed the maximum particle size speci-fied in the technical data. This pump is not designed for continuous operation (e.g. as a swimming pool or pond circulation pump).

ASSEMBLY

Before carrying out any work on the pump, disconnect the mains plug from the power supply.

Installing the pump (Fig. A,D)

The pump should be installed in ventilated and dry environment. It could be installed outside, provided having proper covering to prevent rain and wind. Make sure the pump is placed on the horizontal and stable ground. Always put up the pump at a point higher than the water surface, as shown on figure D. For a permanent intallation, the feet (13) of the device can be bolted to the ground.

Attaching the suction hose (Fig. A, C, D)

Don’t use any hose connection system fittings or standard water hoses on the suction side! A suction hose (8) set with suitable coupling (G1″ external thread) and foot valve (4) must be used. The foot valve (4) prevents the return flow of the water at the end of the pumping process. 25mm, 32mm or 38mm (inner diameter) suction hose (8) must be used to achieve maximum flow rate. The suction hose (8) should be as short as possible.

1. Remove the protection cap from the water inlet connection.
2. Fill suction hose (8) with clean tap water, as shown on figure C.
3. Apply thread seal tape (Teflon tape) to the threaded suction hose coupling.
4. Screw the suction hose coupling airthight into the water inlet (3).
5. The foot valve (4) must be placed vertically and at least 30 cm from the water bottom to prevent the suction of sand and stones, as shown on figure D.

Attaching the outlet hose (Fig. A)

The larger the hose and hose connector diameter, the greater the flow. The lower the delivery height, the greater the flow.

1. Remove the protection cap from the water outlet (6) connection.
2. Decide which hose diameter and hose connection system fittings you are going to use.
3. A pply thread seal tape (Teflon tape) to the chosen threaded coupling.
4. Screw the coupling (not included) into the water outlet (6).
5. Connect the hose (not included) to the coupling.
6. Check that the hose has no kinks in it.

Filling the pump with water (Fig. A, E)

1. Unscrew and remove the filling plug (5).
2. Fill the pump with clean tap water, as shown on figure E. Do not overfill the pump.
3. P lace the filling plug (5) back, do not overtighten.

OPERATION

• Never use this pump in a pond or swimming pool while people are present in the water!
• Only switch the power on or off with dry hands.
• Never run this pump before the pump and the suction hose (8) is filled with water.
• Clean the foot valve (not included) and pre-filter (not included) at regular intervals, and check it for damage. Otherwise, its function can be impaired.

Switching on/off (Fig. A)

1. Check that the ON/OFF switch (1) of the pump is in the ‘O’ position before connecting the pressure switch to the power supply.
2. Move the ON/OFF switch (1) of the pump into the position ‘I’ to switch the pump on. Open the connected tap or spray gun. When you start the pump, there will be a lot of air in the water first. This is not a defect of your pump, but serves to remove air from the pump. It may take several minutes for the air to escape when the pump is used for the first time.
3. When you close the connected tap or the spray gun, the pump automatically stops pumping. Now the pump is ready for use.
4. With the pressure switch (9) you can automati-cally control the operation of the pump. When you open the connected tap or the spray gun, the pump automatically starts pumping. The switch-on pressure is 1.4 bar.
5. When you close the connected tap or the spray gun, the pump automatically stops pumping. The switch-off pressure is 2.8 bar.

Reading the pressure (Fig. A)

The pipe pressure can be read on the pressure gauge (10). The black scale indicates the pressure in bar.

Finish operation (Fig. A, F)

Do not touch the pump unless its power has been cut off for at least 5 minutes. When there is the risk of frost or if you do not use your pump for a long time, please properly store your pump.

1. Check that the ON/OFF switch (1) is in the ‘O’ position.
2. Remove the mains plug from the mains.
3. Unscrew and remove the drain plug (2). Let the water drain.
4. Pull up the suction hose (be aware, it is full of water).
5. Unscrew the suction hose (8) from the water inlet (3).
6. Remove the filter and foot valve (4), then rinse with clear water. Make sure that there is no water left in the suction hose (8).
7. Remove the water hose from the water outlet (6). Unscrew the coupling from the water outlet (6).
8. Place the drain plug (2) back, do not overtighten.
9. Clean and store the device (see ‘Maintenance’)

MAINTENANCE

Before cleaning and maintenance, always switch off the machine and remove the mains plug from the mains. Clean the machine casings regularly with a soft cloth, preferably after each use. Remove very persistent dirt using a soft cloth moistened with soapsuds. Do not use any solvents such as gasoline, alcohol, ammonia, etc. Chemicals such as these will damage the synthetic components. If the appliance appears to be blocked, switch off the power at the mains, remove the plug from the socket and check the appliance for blockages. Clean suction hose, foot valve, pre-filter and pump.

Air pressure tank (Fig. G)

1. Check that the ON/OFF switch (1) is in the ‘O’position.
2. Remove the mains plug from the mains.
3. Open the connected tap or spray gun to reducethe pressure.
4. Unscrew the pressure tank valve cap (12) fromthe pressure tank valve (11).
5. Use an airgaug to check the air pressure, asshown on figure E. It should be 1.5 until 1.8 bar.
6. If necessaire, pumping in or releasing air.
7. Place the pressure tank valve cap (12) back.

STORAGE AND FROST POTECTION

The garden pump and accessories that are not completely drained can be destroyed by frost. Completely drain the garden pump and accessories and protect them against frost. Keep this appliance in well-ventilated dry premises with temperature not going below +5°C. When not in use, keep this appliance stored in a safe place out of reach of children
