Attention! Dangerous electrical voltage.
Possible consequences: Death or serious injuries.
Protective measures:
- Electrical units and installations with a rated voltage of U > 12 V AC or U >30 V DC located in the water: Isolate the units and installations (switch off and disconnect from the power supply) before reaching into the water.
- Isolate the unit before starting any work.

WARNING
This pump uses a very strong magnet to achieve superior performance. When
removing the impeller assembly there will be considerable magnetic force
resisting the extraction of the impeller assembly. This is normal. Likewise
when replacing the impeller assembly there will be a strong magnetic force
pulling the assembly into the pump to potentially cause injury to fingers and
in rare cases damaging the ceramic shaft or rear bearing. Use thick gloves
when replacing the impeller assembly.
Cleaning the unit
- Regular cleaning of the pump may be necessary depending upon the environment in which it is operated. Clean the pump when it is visibly soiled or when a drop in performance is detected. Clean the unit with warm water using a soft brush.
- Never use aggressive cleaning agents or chemical solutions. These could attack the housing surface or impair the function.
- In the event of stubborn furring (calcium deposits), a common household cleaner free from vinegar and chlorine can be used. Subsequently, clean the pump thoroughly using warm water.
Cleaning the pump
Storage/Winterization
- Put the unit out of operation at water temperatures below 46 °F (8 °C) or, at the latest, when freezing temperatures are to be expected.
- Thoroughly clean the unit, check for damage.
- Ensure that the storage place is inaccessible to children.
Wear parts
