INSTALLATION AND CONNECTION

Connecting the pressure hose An optimum flow rate is achieved with the largest possible hose inside diameter. How to proceed:

1. Screw the quick-release coupling onto

2. Fit the hose connector onto the quick-

release coupling. Fitting the connection set The connection set makes it possible to route the pressure hose (G½) via the kink protection.

Fitting the kink protection Using the kink protection, the pressure hose (G½) can be routed over an edge without any kinks. How to proceed:

1. Place the pressure hose into the kink

2. Fold down the cover clips and allow the

fasteners to engage.

3. Hang the pressure hose over the edge.

• Press both fasteners and push them out of the lugs.

• Undo the cover clips and remove the pressure hose. Automatic mode When the water level rises, it lifts the float switch until the switch-on point is reached and the pump switches on. When the water level drops, the float switch lowers until the switch-off point is reached and the pump switches off.

• Push the float switch cable into the ca- ble clip. – The shorter the cable between the float switch and the cable clip, the lower the switch-on point and the higher the switch-off point. NOTE To ensure faultless function, ensure that the length of cable between the float switch and the cable clip measures at least 10 cm. NOTE The minimum residual water height is only reached in manual mode.DE

Manual mode The pump remains permanently switched on if the float switch is set vertically and the cable points downward. NOTE The pump can run dry in manual mode.

• Switch off the pump when the minimum water level is reached.

• Running the pump dry increases wear.

• Move the handle into the horizontal po- sition and push the cable directly at the transition to the float switch into the ca- ble clip such that the float switch is in a vertical position. Installing the pump

• Install the pump in a horizontal and sta- ble position in the water.

• If the filter screen becomes clogged by dirt particles, install the pump in an ele- vated position.

• If it needs to be lowered into a well or a shaft, fasten a rope to the handle. Do not carry it by the power connection cable.

• Ensure that the float switch can always move freely.

SWITCHING ON AND OFF

WARNING Dangerous electrical voltage! Death or severe injury from electrocu- tion.

• Only connect the pump to the power supply when there are no persons in or reaching into the water.

• Before stepping into or reaching into the water, switch off all units located in the water. Switching on the unit

• Insert the power plug into the socket. – The pump is ready for operation. – The pump will start up as soon as the level of the water reaches the switch- on height. Switching off the unit

• Disconnect the power plug. – When the pump is switched off, resid- ual water in the hose may flow back and out of the pump intake. NOTE Do not use the unit for long-term opera- tion. Otherwise this will impair the operat- ing life of the unit accordingly.16 ProMax Rain 4000

Malfunction Cause Remedy Pump does not start. Power supply interrupted Check the fuse and electri- cal plug connections. Pump switches off after a short running period. Overload protection has switched the pump off due to overheating.

• Clean the intake and pressure hose.

• Allow the pump to cool down. The pump is running but is not delivering, or the deliv- ered quantity is insufficient Pressure hose blocked

• Route the pressure hose without kinks.

• Check the outlet and clean if necessary Intake blocked

• Clean the intake Air in the pressure hose

• Expel the air from the pressure hose. Filter screen clogged

• Clean the filter screen. If applicable: Non- return valve incorrectly fitted in the pressure hose or clogged

• Correctly fit the non-re- turn valve.

• Clean the non-return valve. Impeller defective or worn Contact OASE

• The impeller may only be replaced by the OASE Service.
