ELECTRICAL SAFETY:

CAUTION: How to avoid accidents and injuries from electric shock:

  • When operating the device, the main plug must be freely accessible once the device is installed.

  • Before you start using your new pump, get it professionally checked:
    – Earthing, zeroing, and residual current protection circuit must meet the safety regulations of the energy supply company and be working perfectly,
    – Protection of the electrical plug connections against moisture.

  • If there is a risk of flooding, mount the plug connections in an area that cannot flood.
    RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK:

  • Make sure that the mains voltage matches the specifications on the type plate.

  • Carry out the electrical installation in accordance with the national regulations.

  • Before each use, check the device’s mains cable and mains plug for damage. Defective main cables must not be repaired, instead, they must be replaced with new ones. Have any damage to your  device repaired by an authorized specialist.

  • Do not use the mains cable to unplug the mains plug from the socket. Protect the mains cable from heat, oil, and sharp edges.

  • Do not carry or fix the device using the main cable.

  • Only use extension cables that are splashproof and intended for outdoor use. Always fully unroll a cable reel before use. Check the cable for damage.

  • Unplug the mains plug from the socket before carrying out any work on the device, if there are leaks in the water system and when not being used.

  • Extension cables must not have a smaller cross-section than rubber hose lines marked with H07RN8-F. The cable length must be 10 m.
    The strand cross-section of the extension cable must be at least 2.5 mm².
    ATTENTION! NOT SUITABLE FOR DRINKING WATER

Before using the device

  • Prevent the pump from 1 running dry. Failure to do so will void any warranty and liability claims. Ensure that the electrical connection is 230 V~ 50 Hz.
  • Check that the electrical socket is in good condition and that it is sufficiently fused (at least 6 A, RCD switch).
  • Ensure there is no way that moisture or water can reach the main connection. There is a risk of electric shock.
    NOTE: Ensure that the power cable forms a loop below the mains plug, in order to prevent water from running into the plug via the cable.

Using the device

  • Check whether the position for pump 1 is secure and fix pump 1 onto the supporting surface before you use it. For smooth supporting surfaces, you can use the suction pads 3 on the
    the underside of the pump 1 to do this.

  • Depending on the application, connect the right hose with the pump 1.

  • Make sure that the hose connections are tight. If necessary, use hose clamps (not included in the scope of delivery). Select either the 13 mm 6 or 16 mm 7 nozzle connector to fit the hose diameter.

  • Make sure that there are no air bubbles trapped in the hose. These would have a negative effect on the power. To do this, lay the hose so that it ascends and avoids loops.

  • Position the pump 1 fully below the surface of the water, ideally at least 10 cm under the water level. Align pump 1 so that it is as level and horizontal as possible.

  • Do not place pump 1 directly onto slimy or sandy surfaces. The ideal position is for it to be raised, such as, for example, on a stone.

  • Never use pump 1 without the filter grille 5. This prevents the ingress of coarse dirt which would damage the pump 1.

  • By rotating the filter grille5 you can regulate the flow rate. Turning clockwise: less flow; Turning anti-clockwise: more flow. (see Fig. C)

  • In order to achieve the very best pumping results, pump 1 must be positioned on a flat surface.

  • Only allow pump 1 to operate when it is completely submerged in water.

  • If you use pump 1 in an ornamental pond, position pump 1 in an area that is as free of sand as possible.

NOTE: In order to achieve the maximum water flow, you must keep the hoses as short as possible.
Also, as far as possible there should be no kinks and/or large height differences. Ideally, you should use hoses with the largest possible diameter, in order to achieve the greatest possible water flow rate.

 Maintenance and cleaning

  • Pump 1 has been manufactured in a reliable, high-quality design, where the non-contact pump wheel mechanism ensures a long period of operation. However the pump wheel unit 9 is susceptible to contamination from the operating environment and must not be damaged.

**CAUTION:** In order to clean pump 1 or carry out maintenance work, always disconnect it first by unplugging the mains plug 2 from the voltage supply. There is a risk of electric shock or risk of injury through moving parts.

  • Always keep the mains plug 2 dries before you connect the pump 1 back to the mains power socket. In case of doubt, please contact your electrical specialist.
  • In order to clean pump 1 , remove the front cover 4 and the pump wheel unit 9. To lift off the front cover 4 use a narrow flat-blade screwdriver to help you, if necessary. The round cover of the pump wheel unit 8 has a bayonet connector and can be undone by turning it anti-clockwise. The pump wheel unit  9 will simply be pulled out forwards. Use a small, soft brush or a water jet to remove any dirt which is stuck.

**CAUTION: The pump shaft cannot be removed. Re-assemble pump 1** after cleaning by following the instructions in reverse order.

  • Monthly maintenance will increase the service life of the pump 1.

Troubleshooting

If pump 1 does not work, check the following:

  1. Check that there is sufficient water around pump 1.

  2. Check the residual current protection switch off your mains socket and use another socket o make sure that pump 1 is being properly supplied with power.
    NOTE: Always unplug the mains plug from socket 2 before you touch pump 1.

  3. If, when the pump is running, you can hear abnormal noises, check the pump wheel unit 9.
    To do this, unscrew the nozzle connector 6 or 7 from the pump in order to obtain access to the pump wheel. Rotate the pump wheel unit 9 to make sure that it is not broken or blocked. If there is a crack or surface damage on the pump wheel unit 9 , contact an authorized service point.
