Function of the pump

The submersible pump sucks the liquid to be pumped into the pump through the inlet strainer (8) and pumps it out at the outlet.

Designated use

The submersible pump is designed for home use in your house or garden. Please observe the technical data given in the instructions before putting the pump into operation.

ABOUT THIS HANDBOOK

Read this documentation before starting up the machine. This is a precondition for safe working and flawless operation.
- Observe the safety warnings in this documentation and on the product.
This documentation is a permanent integral part of the product described and must be passed on to the new owner if the product is sold.

Explanation of symbols

CAUTION!

Following these safety warnings carefully can prevent personal injury and/or material damage.

Special instructions for greater ease of understanding and improved handling.

Your submersible pump has been designed for use in the following applications:

■ emptying containers or pumping liquid from one container into another,
- pumping water from wells, cisterns and other water tanks
■ operating irrigation systems and lawn sprinklers
■ for the domestic water supply.

The submersible pump is designed to pump only the following liquids:

clear water
rain water
■ chlorinated water (pool water)
■ water for domestic use.

Possible misuse

Your submersible pump is not intended for permanent operation. The pump may not be used to pump the following liquids:

drinking water
salt water
■ beverages or liquid foods
corrosives or chemicals
■ acids or combustible, explosive or gasforming liquids
■ liquids with a temperature above 35 °C

■ sandy water or water containing abrasives
■ waste water containing textile or paper particles

SCOPE OF DELIVERY

Thermal protection

Your submersible pump is equipped with a thermal protection switch which automatically switches off the pump in case of overheating. The pump will remain off until it has cooled down. After about 15 - 20 minutes, the pump will automatically switch on.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

CAUTION!

Risk of injury!

Use the machine and the extension cable only in perfect working order. Damaged equipment may not be operated.

Do not disable safety and protective devices!

Children, or people who are not familiar with the operating instructions, are not allowed to use the machine.
- Never lift, transport or suspend the unit using the connection cable.
■ Unilateral modifications or conversions of the unit are prohibited.

Electrical safety

CAUTION!

Danger when touching voltage conducting parts!

Disconnect the plug from the mains if the extension cable is damaged or severed! We recommend connecting a RCD (residual current operated device) having a nominal residual current of < 30 mA.

The pump may not be operated while people are in the pool or pond.
The house mains voltage must agree with the details quoted in the technical data, do not use any other supply voltage.
The unit must only be operated with an electrical installation in accordance with DIN/VDE 0100, Part 737, 738 and 702. Protection must be provided by a 10 A line protection switch and a RCCD (residual current operated device) having a nominal residual current of 10/30 mA.

Use only extension cables that are suitable for use outdoors - minimum cross-section 1.5 mm ^2 . Cable drums should always be unrolled completely.
■ Damaged or brittle extension cables must not be used.
⇒ Check the condition of your extension cable each time you start to use the equipment.

ASSEMBLY

Mounting the pressure line

You can cut off the tip of the multi-size nipple to fit the diameter of the hose you are using. Using a hose with the largest possible diameter will greatly improve the performance of the pump.

1 Screw the multi-size nipple (10) into the pump outlet.
2 Attach a hose to the multi-size nipple.
3 Fix the connection cable (3) with cable ties to the pressure hose.
4 To submerse the pump into a well or cistern, attach a rope to the rope bracket (4) provided for this purpose.
5 Uncoil the electric cable completely.
6 Plug the pump into the socket. As soon as Adjusting the cut-in and cut-off levels the pump has reached the cut-in (= START) level, the float switch will automatically switch the pump on. When the liquid has fallen below the cut-off (= STOP) level, the pump will automatically switch off, see technical data.

STARTUP

Safety

CAUTION!

Take suitable measures, e.g. installation of an alarm or a back-up pump, to ensure that flooding will not occur if the pump should malfunction.

CAUTION!

When placing the pump in the liquid, make sure to let it down slowly. You may need to tilt the pump slightly so that air trapped in the body is released. Set the pump on the bottom so that it cannot fall over. If the bottom should be sandy or muddy or rocky and uneven, place the pump on a suitable hard, flat surface or suspend it from a rope attached to a secure object. Make sure to leave adequate room between the pump and the bottom so that it cannot suck up solid matter.

CAUTION!

Make sure that the pump does not suck in solid matter. Sand or other abrasive particles suspended in the liquid will lead to increased wear and tear and may impact the performance of your pump. Before lowering the pump into a well or a cistern, attach a rope to the handle. When placing the pump inside a cistern, make sure that the shaft is large enough for the pump to fit. For min. shaft dimensions, see Figure B.

CAUTION!

Place a cover over the cistern so that no one will fall in.

CAUTION!

When switching the pump on again after removing it from a cistern, make sure that the pressure hose is completely empty otherwise the pump will not automatically vent and it could be damaged.

CAUTION!

Make sure that the pump does not run with a blocked or closed pressure hose.

The pump has a non-return valve (2) on the pump output that prevents the pressure hose from emptying the pump every time it is at a standstill.

Adjusting the cut-in and cut-off levels

The float switch cable is attached to the pump housing. You can adjust the cut-in = START and cut-off = STOP levels for operation by simply

changing the height of the switch as desired. Recommended length of the float switch cable is approx. 120 mm.

CAUTION!

While pumping to the minimum submerged depth, make sure to keep the pump under observation and turn it off by pulling the plug when the minimum submerged depth has been reached to prevent the pump from sucking in air, as this may damage your pump.

If the level of the remaining water drops below the minimum submersed depth, the pump will suck in air. Before using the pump again to drain liquid, the air trapped in the pump will have to be vented (see Setting up and Operating the Pump).

Switching off the Pump

1 To switch off the pump, just pull the plug of the electric cable from the socket.

MAINTENANCE AND CARE

- Disconnect the machine from the mains power supply before commencing assembly and maintenance work.

Cleaning the pump

After conveying chlorine-containing swimming pool water or fluids that leave a residue, the pump must be flushed out with clear water.

1. Clean the suction slots on the suction foot if necessary with clear water.

STORAGE

In the event of a risk of frost, the system must be drained completely.

DISPOSAL

Do not dispose of worn-out machines or spent batteries (including rechargeable batteries) in domestic waste!

The packaging, machine and accessories are made from recyclable materials and must be disposed of accordingly.

TROUBLESHOOTING
