Everything else belongs in the garbage can! Please note that the wastewater can only be pumped into the lifting unit without pressure.
Note:
Some of the accessories included in the delivery are located inside the lifting unit. Please remove the accessory bag before installation.

Installation

• The lifting unit will be installed according to EN-12056–4.
• The lifting unit can be operated at any commercially available toilet with a horizontal outlet. According to the EU standard, the center of the horizontal outlet must be 18 cm above the floor (shell: 18 cm above FFB).
• Important: PRESSURE-LESS: When connecting a washing machine to the lifting unit, the waste water hose must not be connected directly to the lifting unit, but must be supplied via a vented pipe system (e.g., via a washbasin which can be slowly introduced into the unit). In case of direct connection, the collecting tank of the lifting unit may burst, and this is not a warranty case.
• We recommend that assembly and leak testing be carried out by qualified personnel. Please observe the legal regulations!

ATTENTION:
During installation, make sure that the pump is not freely suspended from the discharge line or power cable.

Operating principle

• The lifting unit consists of a tank which collects the wastewater and an electric pump which is automatically controlled by a pressure switch (D).
• The pumping function is activated when the flush is activated, just like a normal toilet.
• The materials to be conveyed are collected in the container (A). The air chamber (B) measures the air pressure flowing through the pipe (C) to actuate the pressure switch (D). The pressure switch starts the engine (E) that drives the turbine/shredder (F). The wastewater is conveyed away through the outlet (G).
• This mechanism is simple and the unit is made of high-quality materials. The function is based on a proven concept.
• The lifting unit consists of a housing with a built-in pump which automatically drains acidic, fatty, and hot water (up to 80 ℃), faeces and toilet paper via a pipe with a diameter of 23 mm, 28 mm, 32 mm or 44 mm to the next sewage system.
• They are designed to collect wastewater from sanitary installations in bathrooms (EN-12050–3, EN-12050–4) or kitchens, including washing machines, dishwashers, and all other appliances whose wastewater is to be disposed of (see curve diagram).
• The non-return valve included in the packaging must be installed.
• The standard EN-12050–3, EN-12050–4 stipulate that if a WC is connected, only a shower, a bidet and a washbasin can be connected, too.
• The lifting unit cannot be installed on appliances such as washing machines and dishwashers if it is connected to the toilet.
• If the water flow in the tank cannot be interrupted during normal operation, a device with the same capability must be used which will automatically switch on if necessary.
• The installation must comply with the European standard EN 12056–4.
• Fix the container with two plugs (⌀ 3.5 mm) or a similar device using the fixing holes provided.
• The lifting unit can be connected to any toilet model with a wall drain according to European regulations.
• It is fixed by inserting the WC drain into the rubber sleeve which comes out of the housing and screwing the supplied clamp.
• The connection of the drain is on the top side of the appliance and the other consumers in the bathroom or kitchen are the thin sides of the appliance.
• The connected appliances should be operated separately and not continuously (e.g., shower).
• N. B.: The shower and bath drains must be at least 10 cm from the floor. All connected sanitary facilities must be able to interrupt the flow of water.

Minimal height requirements

• The lifting unit is equipped with an activated carbon filter to ventilate the tank in the pump room. If the auxiliary inputs are not used, fit the appropriate stopper.

Emptying toilets

• Connect the horizontal outlet of the toilet bowl with the rubber sleeve of the lifting unit and tighten the connection with the supplied clamp. If necessary, use a lubricant to prevent the rubber connection from tearing.
• Connect the drain pipe to the rubber connection piece, the pipe should have a diameter of 40 or 32 mm. Seal the connection with the clamp.

Checking the assembly of the check valve

If the wastewater is to be pumped upwards, install the check valve as close as possible to the lifting unit.

Emptying toilets and other sanitary units
Connect the drain pipes of the other sanitary units with the rubber connectors supplied and tighten them with the clamp. For shower and bath wastewater, ensure that the siphon slope is at least 1 % (1 cm⁄m) so that the wastewater flows to the lifting system by natural gravity. If other sanitary units are connected along the disposal circuit near the lift, install check valves in the appropriate drain pipes to prevent backflow. The slope of the horizontal components must be at least 1 %.

Installation options

• For the lifting unit to switch on when discharging wastewater, the incoming wastewater pipe should have a gradient of at least 2–3 % and a height difference of at least 20 cm from the siphon to the inlet to the lifting unit.
• This is both necessary so that the pressure switch in the toilet lifting unit is activated, the lifting unit is switched on and the water is pumped out.
• Possible errors if this is not considered:
  • the lifting system does not pump the water out
  • there is always residual water in the pipes
  • there is residual water in the shower tray.

Maintenance and cleaning

• Read the safety instructions and instructions carefully before opening the unit for maintenance. Maintenance should only be performed on a current-less device.
• The lifting unit consists of a waste water container and a chopper with pressure switch. Both areas are easily accessible through the cover. The maintenance access points are marked on the top of the lifting unit. The maintenance and repair of the device is so comfortably possible.

Removal of foreign bodies and blockages

• Disconnect the main cable.
• Unscrew the cap with the pump symbol (upper side of the lifting unit).
• Remove the cap.
• Unscrew the cap of the chopping chamber.
• Turn and remove the chopping chamber cap.
• Remove clogging parts (e.g., with pliers).
• When maintenance is complete, reassemble the unit using the reverse procedure.

Troubleshooting

Our devices are suitable exclusively for the disposal of feces and toilet paper. Some small parts may still be pumped, but larger parts may block the pump. This is the main reason for the incidents recorded by our customer service.

… does not have enough power or works too slowly to transport the wastewater away.| The drain pipe is too long or too high.| Adjust the arrangement of the pipes.
The diameter of the drain pipe is too small.| Use a different pipe.
A part is clogged.| Start the pump with the manual switch button. If the problem per- sits, the pump must be blocked.
… a buzzing noise sounds, but the sewage is not being transported away.| The pump is blocked.| Check the pump impeller for blockage when the main plug is unplugged.
The non-return valve has been mounted the wrong way round.| Mount the non- return valve in the correct direction.
… is launched manner.| in| unintended| The check valve is defective.| Check the non-return valve.

Detailed error descriptions and solutions

Residual water in the shower tray
For the lifting unit to switch on cleanly when discharging wastewater, the incoming wastewater pipe should have a gradient of at least 2–3 % and a height difference of at least 20 cm from the siphon to the inlet to the lifting unit. This is both necessary for the pressure switch in the toilet lift to work properly, turn on the lift and pump out the water. Possible faults, if this is not considered, are that the lifting unit does not pump the water out or that there is always too much left in the pipes or possibly in the shower tray. Loud noises, motor does not start or starts heavily, water is not pumped out. These symptoms occur when the lifting system is blocked. If the system is clogged with toilet paper and faeces, in most cases it is sufficient to carefully flush the system backward with water. To do this, simply apply a little water pressure to the outlet of the lifting unit, e.g., with a garden hose, so that the residues from the pump body are flushed back into the lifting unit. Please make sure that there is no water pressure on the collecting tank of the lifting unit. Otherwise, the pressure switch of the lifting unit will be damaged and the automatic on/off switch will no longer function correctly. In the case of heavy blockages/blockages caused by solids which have jammed in the pump body, it may be necessary to open the pump so that the solids can be removed. Strong impacts from the solids in the lifting unit may even damage the motor bearings. In this case, the motor of the lifting unit must be opened and the bearing replaced. This fault usually manifests itself after the removal or rinsing out of larger solids. The lifting unit can then still be turned freely by hand, but as soon as you try to start the engine, it blocks and only hums. Cleaning can easily be done through the maintenance opening on the top of the lifting unit. Lifting unit does not pump down and is in continuous operation This error occurs in lifting systems that were switched off (no power) and still had inlet, or where sewage was discharged under pressure from a dishwasher or washing machine, or that had more inlet than the pump could pump out. As a result, the systems were “overfilled.” It can then happen that water gets into the pressure switch of the lifting unit. This disturbs the function of the pressure switch. The system then either runs continuously or no longer switches on automatically.

Cleaning the unit

The lifting unit may only be cleaned from the outside with mild detergents, a damp cloth and soapy water. Damage caused by incorrect cleaning agents is not covered by the warranty.
