(See overleaf for the address) Device description The maximum amount of equipment is de- scribed in these operating instructions. De- pending on the model used, there are dif- ferences in the scope of delivery (see pack- aging).

1. Slide the hose clamp onto the hose.

2. When using a hose with a diameter of ¾"

or 1": a Screw the pump connecting piece (see chapter Accessories and spare parts) onto the pipe union. b Shorten the pump connecting piece using the grooves, according to the selected hose diameter. The flow volume is increased. c Slide the hose onto the pump connect- ing piece.

3. When using a hose with a diameter of

1¼", slide the hose onto the pipe union.

4. Fasten the hose on the pipe union using

the hose clamp. Initial startup 몇CAUTION Improper transportation Risk of injury and damage Do not carry the pump using the cable or hose.

1. Plug the pipe union into Quick-Connect.

The hose is connected up.

2. Lock in place the float switch at the

height adjustment. Illustration C

3. Position the pump in the feed fluid:

Fasten a rope to the carrying handle and immerse the pump. Set down the pump horizontally on firm ground. If the ground is muddy, use a brick or something similar for stabilising.

4. Ensure that the suction area is not

blocked. Operation Automatic venting If the fluid level is low, any sucked-in air, or air present in the pump, may escape via the automatic venting device. Fluid can also leak along with air. Illustration D Setting the filter basket The filter basket can be operated in 2 posi- tions. Illustration E

1. Put the pump on the ground.

Waste water and clear water de- livery We would recommend this filter basket position at the start of the pumping process, since on this occasion the pumping capacity is at its greatest. Flat vacuuming In this filter basket position, flat vacuuming is possible up to 1 mm residual fluid height in manual mode.10 English

2. Clamp the pump between your feet and

take hold of the carrying handle.

3. Unlatch the filter basket by turning the

4. Move the filter basket into the required

5. Lock the filter basket in place by turning

the handle anticlockwise. Automatic mode In automatic mode, the float switch controls the pumping process automatically. The pump switches on as soon as the float switch reaches the switch-on height caused by the rising fluid level. The pump switches off as soon as the float switch reaches the switch-off height caused by the sinking fluid level. The float switch must be able to move free- ly. Note The switching heights vary depending on: Position of the float switch Cable length between the float switch and lock. The cable length must be at least

2.5 cm. We would recommend retaining

the set cable length. For information on the switching heights, see chapter Technical data.

1. Set the float switch using the height ad-

justment, and the cable length between the float switch and the lock. Note When the pump is operated unattended, always set the float switch to the upper- most position in order to ensure that the pump can switch off reliably. Illustration F When the float switch is set to the lower- most position, set the cable length be- tween the float switch and the lock to

2.5 cm, see marking on the cable.

2. Move the filter basket into the "waste

water and clear water delivery" position.

3. Plug the mains plug into the socket.

Manual operation In manual operation, the pump stays switched on. The residual fluid height (see chapter Technical data) can only be reached in manual operation. ATTENTION Damaging the pump due to dry running Increased wear and tear Do not leave the pump unattended in man- ual operation. Switch off the pump for dry running.

1. Fasten the float switch in the lock, with

the nose pointing upwards. Illustration H

2. Move the filter basket into the required

position, depending on the fluid level (for the minimum fluid height and residual fluid height, see chapter Technical da- ta).

3. Plug the mains plug into the socket.

Optimising the flow rate The flow rate is further increased: The lower the delivery height is The greater the diameter of the hose used is The shorter the hose used is The smaller the pressure loss caused by the connected up accessories Ending operation

1. Remove any dirt from the device.

Pump clear water. Rinse out the pump.

2. Press the button for Quick-Connect and

remove the pipe union. Illustration I The hose is removed.English 11

3. Where necessary, remove residue from

the hose and on Quick-Connect.

4. Pull the mains plug out of the socket.

Transportation Carry the device. Lift up the device by the carrying han- dle, and carry it. Fasten a rope to the carrying handle, and use the rope to lift up the device - and carry it.
