The particle sizes of the solids in the dirty 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) or for stationary installations (e.g. lifting device, fountain pump).

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS

• The stated residual water height is only achieved in manual operation.

2. Operating mode switch (manual / automatic)
3. Float cover
4. Base
5. Hose connector
6. Water outlet elbow connector
7. Water outlet
8. Vent hole
9. Sponge filter
10. Bracket
11. Float
12. Float cover screws

ASSEMBLY

• The larger the hose and hose connector diameter, the greater the flow.
• 32mm (inner diameter) hose must be used to achieve maximum flow rate.
• The lower the delivery height, the greater the flow.

Attaching the outlet hose (Fig. A, B)

1. Decide which hose diameter you are going to use. See figure B.
2. Cut off the smaller steps of the hose connector (5) that are not needed, using a suitable knife or saw (not included).This removes unnecessary flow restrictions and ensures maximum pump capacity and water flow.
3. Screw the outlet elbow connector (6) into the water outlet (7).
4. Screw the hose connector (5) on the outlet elbow (6).
5. Fit the hose on to the hose connector (5) and secure with a stainless steel hose clamp (not included).
6. Attach a suitable rope (not included) to the carry handle (1), to lower the pump into deep water and to lift the pump back out of the wa-ter. Never lower or lift the pump by its cable.

OPERATION

Never use this pump in a pond or swimming pool while people are present in the water!

• Never pull the pump by its power cord. The pump must be carried by, and placed in the water using the carry handle (1) or if the water is deep, be lowered on a rope tied to the carry handle (1).
• Always have the pump switched off and the plug removed from the power socket before placing it in or removing it from the water. Only switch the power back on with dry hands.
• Never run this pump dry – out of the water. If the appliance overheats, the thermal cut-out will switch it off. If this happens wait 5 minutes before using the pump again.
• Automatic air bleed valve: The automatic air bleed valve eliminates any air pockets in the pump. During this process, air escapes through the vent hole (8) and air bubbles appear underwater. This is not a defect of your pump, but serves to remove air from the pump. It may take several seconds for the air to escape when the pump is immersed for the first time.

Automatic operation (Fig. A, C, D)

Clean the float (11), float cover (3) and filter (9) at regular intervals, and check it for damage. Otherwise, its function can be impaired.

1. Slide the operating mode switch (2) to “AUTO”.
2. Lower the pump into water. It would be advisa-ble to stand the pump on a solid platform at the bottom to keep it upright, if practical to do so. Ensure there are no obstructions around the in-let openings around the base of the pump. The inlet openings must be clear of mud or sludge at the bottom of a pool.
3. Connect the mains plug.
4. When the pump is lowered into the water and the power is switched on, it will start to operate as soon as the floating switch (11) reaches the minimum activation height (approx. 23cm) in the water.
5. The pump switches off as soon as the float switch (11) has reached the switch-off height (approx. 6.5cm) due to the falling water level.
6. Ensure that the float switch (11) is not obstruc-ted in any way. Clean the float (11), float cover (3) and filter (9) at regular intervals.
7. After use, remove the mains plug from the mains.
8. Lift the pump back out of the water.

Manual operation (Fig. A)

1. Slide the operating mode switch (2) to “MANU-AL”.
2. Lower the pump into water. It would be advisa-ble to stand the pump on a solid platform at the bottom to keep it upright, if practical to do so. Ensure there are no obstructions around the in-let openings around the base of the pump. The inlet openings must be clear of mud or sludge at the bottom of a pool.
3. Connect the mains plug.
4. On manual mode, the pump will always run. Never run this pump dry – out of the water.
5. After use, remove the mains plug from the mains.
6. Lift the pump back out of the water.

Finish operation
After use allow the pump to run using clean water for 2 – 3 minutes in order to remove residues and particles that may have accumulated in the pump and outlet hose.
