2. Safety measures

Attention! Use in garden ponds and the protected area of garden ponds is only permitted if the installation complies with the valid regulations. Consult a qualified electrician.

Attention! Do not use the pump in or on swimming pools!

Prior to use:

• Check the mains cable and plug for damage.
• Mains voltage and current type must agree with the information on the type plate.
• Only connect the pump via a residual current circuit breaker (RCCB, = 30 mA) to a proper earthing contact socket.
  • Install the connection socket in the water-protected area and at least 2 m away from the edge of the pond.
  • Always protect the mains plug from moisture.
• Unplug the mains plug before performing any work on the pump, fountain or pond.
• Do not operate the pump if there are people in the water (disconnect the pump from the mains supply beforehand!)
• Important! If there is damage to the mains cables or the motor housing the complete pump is unusable and must be disposed of. Repair is not possible because the connecting cable is permanently cast in the motor housing.
• Never suspend or transport the pump by the mains cable.

- This pump is equipped with a permanent magnet, whose magnetic fields could influence pacemakers, interfere with electrical/electronic components and wipe data carriers.

• People with pacemakers should always maintain a safety distance of at least 30 cm from the pump.

3. Application areas

This product is an immersion pump, the motor is completely cast in epoxy resin. The pumps are designed for use in water, such as: garden pond, fish pond, fountains, for operating filter systems, streams, etc. as well as for water aeration and circulation. This device has been developed for private use and not for industrial or commercial purposes.

The pump is not suitable for displacement of salt water, faecal matter, flammable, corrosive or other hazardous liquids. The pumped liquid must not exceed the maximum temperature specified in the technical data.

6. Commissioning / Installation

You can find explanatory figures at the start of the usage instructions. The numbers in brackets in the following text relate to Fig. IV.

Important! The pump must not run dry, i.e. without water. Otherwise the possibility if damage cannot be ruled out!

• The unit can be placed submerged or dry.
  • Always place the unit below water level.
• Place the unit horizontally on the ground ensuring its stable position.
• You can switch on the pump by plugging the mains plug into the socket or switch it off by pulling the mains plug back out.
• The water temperature must not exceed 35^ .
• The pump must be protected from freezing.
• Always ensure that the seals we supply are properly in place and the relevant parts are cleanly screwed together. Never use force or an unsuitable tool to try to connect the parts.
• Adjust the hose connection ports to the size of the hose that is used; to do this, use a standard household saw to cut off the smaller hose diameter that is not required on the connection ports.

Operate the device as a filter or stream pump in water (Figure I)

• Install the hose connection ports (12,13) on the pump outlet.. (Fig. I/1)
- Connect the pump outlet to the pond filter or the stream (Fig. I/2)
• In the BPF 8000 E, the flow rate can be adjusted according to requirements using the integrated flow rate regulator.
- Completely immerse the pump in your pond. Water will penetrate into the pump body.
• A water level of at least 25 cm is required for operation, so that the pump does not take in air.
- Only operate the pump at a maximum immersion depth ( ) of 2 m!
- In order to avoid unnecessary soiling, position the pump in your pond above the sludge deposits, and attach solidly and levelly (stone slab)!

Setting up the pump dry (Figure II)

• Set up the device so that it is not subjected to direct sunlight (maximum 40^ ).
• Open the clips (4) and remove the top shell (1). (Fig. II/1)
• Remove the screws that fasten the holders (9,10). Remove the holders (9,10) from the bottom shell (2). (Fig. II/2)
• Remove the pump from the bottom shell (2). (Fig. II/3)
  • Install the hose connection ports (12,13,16,17) on the pump inlet and outlet. (Fig. II/5)
• Re-insert the pump in the bottom shell (2). (Fig. 11/6)
• Re-assemble the device by following the steps in reverse order.
• Connect the suction and pressure lines. (Fig. II/7)

7. Maintenance and care

To significantly extend the service life of your pump, and to ensure trouble-free function, we recommend regular maintenance and cleaning. With a few hand movements every user can easily execute all maintenance tasks. For this, the pump must be dismounted, as described in chapter 8. All parts can be cleaned with a non-metallic brush and a neutral cleaner. Ensure that the cleaning agent does not get into the pond water. Carefully rinse off all cleaned parts with clean tap water, before putting the pump back together and placing it in service. If the pump is heavily calcified, you can place the run unit and the motor block in a descaling solution for stainless steel parts. In this regard comply with the use instructions provided with the descaling agent.

7.1. Maintenance intervals

The time intervals for the required maintenance task (complete cleaning) to a great extent are based on the level of pond water contamination. Select the time intervals for cleaning accordingly.

If, when performing maintenance tasks, you determine that there are defects or wear, replace the parts in question (see ordering spare parts).

7.2. Winter - maintenance

• Protect your pump from freezing!
• If there is danger of freezing, take the pump out of your garden pond.
• Completely clean the pump as specified in the instructions.
• Store the pump over winter in a frost-free location.

7.3. Overload protection

The built-in thermal overload trip prevents the pump from being overheated.

The pump must cool down.

Check the following operating conditions:

• Is there a sufficient water supply?
• Has the filter become clogged?
• Has dirt entered the pump housing (Follow the cleaning instructions below)?
• Have hoses or jets become clogged?
• Has the pump cooled down?

As soon as you have solved the problems, you can start the pump again, pulling the plug out and putting it again in the socket after a short time (1 min.)

8. Dismounting / mounting the pump
