ASSEMBLING THE PUMP

• Depending on the depth of the tank, connect one or both extension tubes to the pump body.
• Put gasket seals into the individual connection points.
• These extension tubes are telescopic, meaning that a precise length can be set depending on the depth of the tank. After setting the required length, tighten the connection points.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Purpose of use

• This pump may be used at any time to transfer water from one location to another.
• The appliance is intended for private household use and is not suitable for professional applications.
• It is not suitable for work with waste water in sewage systems, salt water, aggressive or easily combustible substances, for work in food processing or as a pump for water jets on garden ponds.
• It is not designed for pumping drinking water!

NOTE:
Before using the submersible pump, please fi rst carefully read all the safety and operating instructions for the pump. Only after reading these instructions will you be able to safely and reliably use all the functions of the pump. You must conform to all local regulations in force in your country. These regulations are effective together with the particulars specified in these instructions.
ATTENTION!
If you will be using the pump near pools or garden ponds, or in their protective zone, the electrical grid must be equipped with a circuit breaker.
The pump must not be used, if there are people in the pool or garden pond! Also do not use it if there are fi sh or other living creatures in the pool or garden pond.
The submersible pump is designed to pump water at a maximum temperature of 35 °C.
The pump must not be used for other liquids, particularly motor oils, cleaning agents and other chemical products!
PUTTING INTO OPERATION
ATTENTION!
You should never install the pump by hanging it on the outlet hose or power cord without additional support. The submersible pump must be hung on a hook (Fig. 1, point 4) or it must be placed on the bottom of the tank. For the pump to function correctly, the pumped liquid must not contain foreign objects that are larger than specified in the overview of technical parameters.
After carefully reading these instructions you can prepare your pump for operation, however, keep the following points in mind:

• Check that the pump is standing on the bottom of the tank or that it is hung by the hook.
• Check that the outlet hose has been attached correctly.
• Ensure that the moisture from the water can never get to the electrical power source.
• Prevent the pump from running empty.

Setting the fl oat switch
ATTENTION!
The fl oat switch is installed in such a way that it is possible to reach the activation level or the shut off level with only a small amount of force. After checking this installation, place the pump into a tank with water and carefully lift the fl oat switch by hand and then put it down again. During this activity watch that the pump has started and then turned itself off.
By shortening the available length of cable between the pump and the fl oat switch it is possible to adjust the water level at which the pump is started and stopped. The fl oat switch can be secured in place on the side of the pump.
ATTENTION!
As soon as you set the fl oat switch, check that it is not touching anywhere before the pump turns off.

•  Risk of dry running – The pump is cooled using the pumped liquid. In the event of dry running, the pump motor may burn up.

NOTE:
The tank for the pump should have the minimum dimensions of 40 × 40 × 50 cm (height × width × depth), for the fl oat to freely move with the switch.

MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE

This submersible pump is approved as a maintenance-free product undergoing several fi nal inspections. We recommend you perform regular inspections and maintenance, which will ensure a long lifetime and continuous performance.
ATTENTION!
Disconnect the power source before performing any maintenance.
Maintenance

• If the pump is regularly moved during operation, it should be rinsed out after each use with clean water.
• If the pump is permanently installed, the working order of the fl oat switch should be checked every 3 months.
• Any fibrous deposits that could deposit themselves inside the pump, should be removed using a water current.
• Remove deposits on the fl oat using clean water.
• If an excessive amount of debris accumulates in the body of the pump, fl ush the pump out with clean water.

Storage

• Store the thoroughly cleaned out pump in a dry place out of children’s reach.
