When using the 38 mm (1 1/2″) hose, we recommend the GARDENA Flat Hose, Set Art. 5005 with 10 m hose and hose clamp.

• For Art. 9042 an additional connection nipple ß4a for 1 1/4″ hoses is supplied.

To connect the hose via the connection nipple:

1. When using the large diameter hose, cut off the connection nipple (4) at (a).
2. Only for Art. 9046: When using the medium hose diameter, cut off the connection nipple (4) at (b).
3. Push the hose onto the connection nipple (4).
4. Fix the hose to the connection nipple (4) e. g. with a GARDENA Hose Clamp

Connect hose via the GARDENA Connection System:
With 25000 DIRT (Art. 9046) the hose cannot be connected via the connection nipple (4) with the GARDENA Connection System.
19 mm (3/4″) / 15 mm (5/8″) and 13 mm (1/2″) hoses can be connected via the GARDENA Connection System.
We do not recommend hose diameters smaller than 25 mm (1″), otherwise there will be a significant reduction in the output of the delivery rate.

1. Cut off the connection nipple (4) at (b).
2. Connect the hose to the connection nipple (4) via the appropriate GARDENA Connection System.

To assemble the pump connection [ Fig. A5 ]:
DANGER! Risk of injury!
Cut injury by the impeller.
Operate the pump only with the elbow connector.

The hose can be easily connected and disconnected using
the locking devices (2) on the elbow connector (1).

1. Screw the elbow connector (1) clockwise into the pump until it stops. (If the hose is to be installed horizontally, the elbow connector (1) can be screwed out again up to half a turn.)
2. Only for Art. 9042 / 9046: Screw the connection piece (3) into the connection nipple (4).
3. Push the connection nipple (4) of the hose into the elbow connector (1) until it stops and it engages audibly and visibly.

The hose is securely connected to the pump.

OPERATION

DANGER! Risk of injury!
Injury when the product starts accidentally.
Disconnect the product from the mains before you connect, adjust or transport the product.

To pump water:
If the pump cannot be immersed via the handle, the pump must always be immersed via a rope. Attach the rope by pulling it through the eyelets provided and knotting it. Minimum immersion depth during initial operation see 7.

TECHNICAL DATA.

Take care that the pump is located where the inlet openings at the suction base are not obstructed either completely nor partly.
Stand the pump on a brick if used in a pond.
If the suction process is close to the minimum water level at start-up, the suction process may take longer.

1. Immerse the pump.
2. Connect the pump to the mains.

Attention! The pump can start immediately depending on the float switch setting.
Automatic mode with float switch [ Fig. O1 ]:
By adjusting the float switch (5) you have the possibility to determine the switching heights. For safe operation, the float switch must be able to move freely around the pump.

To adjust the Cut-in and Cut-out Height [ Fig. O1 ]:
The maximum cut-in height and minimum cut-out height (see 7. TECHNICAL DATA) can be adjusted by pushing the float switch wire into the float switch lock.

• The higher the cable is clamped, the higher the cut-in and cut-out height.
• The shorter the length of cable between the float switch (5) and the float switch lock (A), the lower the cut-in height and the higher the cut-out height.

1. Push the cable of the float switch (11) into one of the openings of the float switch lock (A).
2. Check that the pump switches off automatically.

CAUTION!
In order to ensure that the float switch is able to switch on and off, the cable length between the float switch and the float switch lock must be at least 10 cm.

Manual operation [ Fig. O2 ]:
The pump remains permanently in operation because the float switch is bypassed.

1. Slide the float switch (5) with the cable downwards onto the float switch locking device (A).
2. Place the pump on a firm surface.
3. Connect the pump to the mains.

Attention! The pump begins operating immediately.
The pump runs permanently without dry-running protection due to the bypassed float switch. To avoid damage due to dry running, only operate under supervision.
The minimum residual water depth (see 7. TECHNICAL DATA) is only achieved in manual mode because the float switch already switches off the pump before this when in
automatic mode.
