To ensure the long service life of the pump seal we recommend rinsing the pump
with clean water at regular intervals. During winter storing, it is necessary
to make sure there is no water in the appliance as the frost could damage the
appliance. Prior to transportation, it is necessary to unplug the pump from
the grid! The device has to be completely emptied and stored with frost-proof
protection. adhesion of mechanical seals can be prevented if you rinse the
pump with the appropriate oil (for example, vegetable oil).
Only a regularly maintained and treated appliance can serve as a satisfactory
aid. insufficient maintenance and care can lead to unforeseen accidents and
injuries.
