Before Startup
Screw the hose connection on to the pump
Connect the hose connection to the hose coupling of the drum edge holder.
Operation
DANGER Risk of mortal danger on account of electric shock! Do not touch
the feed fluid and the rope fastened to the carrying handle during operation.
NOTICE The liquid level must at least be 3 cm for the pump to suck in
liquids independently.
If the prerequisites for the pump operation are met (water level,
position/level switch), the pump will start immediately after the mains plug
has been plugged in.
Comfort operation
In order to run the pump independently of the water level, the level switch
must be mounted inside the housing.
Illustration 1
Screw the housing bowl and the O-ring onto the drum edge holder.
Place the level switch into the housing bowl.
Press the housing cover down onto the housing bowl until it locks.
Illustration 2
Slide the drum edge holder onto the container edge until it is properly
seated.
Illustration 3
Place the pump on a stable surface in the liquid to be transported. Immerse it
using a rope tied to the handle or hang it into the container by the hose. The
suction area should not be blocked fully or partially through the impurities.
Illustration 4
Close locking tap (arrow horizontal).
Insert the mains plug into the socket.
Rotate the housing with the level switch in the arrow direction “ON”.
The pump will turn on.
Open the locking tap to remove water (arrow vertical).
Automatic operation
In the automatic mode, the level switch automatically controls the pumping
operations. The pump switches on or off when the fluid level reaches the
height that has been set.
Ensure that the level sensor is not obstructed in any way.
Illustration 5
In automatic operation, set the required switching height by clamping the
level switch cable into the stopper.
Open the locking tap to remove water (arrow vertical).
Insert the mains plug into the socket.
Manual operation
In manual operations, the pump remains switched on continuously.
Illustration 6
In manual operations mode, align the level sensor upward (cable pointing
downward). Tip: Push the cable of the level sensor like a loop through the
handle.
Open the locking tap to remove water (arrow vertical).
Insert the mains plug into the socket.
NOTICE
Dry running leads to increased wear and tear; do not leave the pump unattended
during manual operation. Switch off the pump within 3 minutes of dry running.
Finish operation
NOTICE
Soiling can deposit and lead to malfunctions.
Rinse the pump with clean water after use.
This especially applies after pumping chlorinated water or other liquids that
leave a residue.
Rotate the housing with the level switch in the arrow direction “OFF”. The
pump will turn off.
Disconnect the main plug from the socket.
Maintenance
The pump is maintenance-free.
