• Avoid dry running of the pump.
• Do not damage the cable. Never use the cable to carry, pull or extract the pump.
• Clean the pump regularly if aspirated liquid causes sediment.
• Avoid shocks, do not drop the pump.
• If the pump is clogged, first disconnect the pump from the mains and secure it against being switched on again.
• Then remove the suction line at the pump inlet.
• Then connect the pressure line to the waterline.
• Run sufficient water through the pump housing until the blockage dissolves.
• Check by briefly switching on whether the pump turns freely.
• Put the pump back into operation as described.

14. Mounting and starting the device

The device is used for pumping domestic water for households and gardens.

The device can draw clear water from wells, rainwater barrels, or cisterns from a depth of up to 7 m and pumping it up to a height of 48m.

In this case, the device has a pressure vessel, which provides a constant pressure in the line, even when the device is not working. The integrated automatic on/off switch monitors the pressure in the pressure vessel. It switches the device when the pressure drops below 1.5 bar or switches the device off again when the pressure of 3 bar is available again.

The water temperature must not exceed 35^ C.

For a permanent installation, the device has feet with drill holes, which allows screwing to the substrate.

Setting up the pump

1. Select and prepare a level and firm location.
2. Install the pump horizontally and in such a way that it is safe from flooding.

Important: The pump must be protected from rain and direct water jets.

Connecting the suction line

NOTE

We recommend installing flexible lines at the pump inlet. So can no mechanical pressure or pull is applied to the pump. This hose must be a vacuum-proof suction hose.

1. Select the length of the suction line so that the pump cannot run dry. The suction line must always be at least 30 cm below the water surface. Deposits may have settled on the bottom of water bodies over time. To prevent damage to the device, do not lower the suction line to the bottom or use a suitable pre-filter with a backflow stop on the suction line
2. To ensure proper operation, you must use a suction line with a check valve. For this purpose, a corresponding pre-filter with an integrated check valve can also be mounted on the suction line.
3. Connect the suction line. Ensure tight connection without damaging the thread.
4. Use a pressure line and suction line whose diameter is at least equal to the connections' size. A smaller diameter leads to a pressure loss and thus to a reduced flow rate.
5. The lower the delivery heads of the pressure line and suction line, the higher the delivery rate.
6. In the case of slightly sandy water, between the suction line and the pump inlet a pre-filter must be installed.
7. Always lay the suction line uphill. An air bubble can form at elevated points in the suction line and cause the device to run dry.

Mount pressure line

IMPORTANT:

Be sure to install all pressure line parts properly. There is a risk of injury from the pressurized pumped medium in the event of improper installation or unsuitable parts.

Vent the pressure line:

Observe the following instructions before venting or switching on the device:

Make sure that the mains connection corresponds to the specifications in the technical data.

Check the proper condition of the mains socket and that it is adequately fused.

Make sure that moisture never gets to the power plug or the power socket. There is a risk of electric shock!

Check that the pressure and suction lines have been attached properly.

Check the set prepress pressure in the pressure vessel. To do this, follow the

instructions for Checking the pre-compression pressure in the pressure vessel in the Maintenance chapter.

1. Open all consumers connected to the pressure line to vent the pressure line.

2. Switch on the device as described in "Switching on the pump" and wait until the device has sucked in water or water comes out of the consumers.

Switch on the pump

Important:

The danger of device damage! Dry running destroys the pump!

The pump must be filled with water up to the overflow before each start-up to prime immediately.

• Open the filler plug (see illustration above, No. 2).
• Fill with water via the filler plug until the marking on the pump housing is reached.

• Screw-in the filler plug again.

• Open all closures present in the pressure line (valve, spray nozzle, water tap).

• Insert the power plug of the connection cable into the socket.
• Switch on the pump at the on/off switch.
• The device is ready for operation and switches on when the system's pressure drops below the switch-on pressure of 1.5 bar (usually by opening a consumer on the pressure line).
• The device switches off when the system's pressure rises again by closing the consumer, and the switch-off pressure of 3 bar is reached.

ATTENTION!

The danger of device damage!

A closed pressure line can cause damage to the pump!

■ Do not run the pump against a closed discharge line.

Switch off the pump

1. Switch off the pump after use at the on/off switch.
2. Open the lowest consumer to take pressure from the pressure line.
3. Disconnect the pressure and suction lines.
4. Clean the device according to the chapter Maintenance.
5. Store the device according to the chapter Storage.

CAUTION!

Risk of injury from hot water

During the more extended operation against the closed pressure side (>10 min), the following may occur

the water in the pump will heat up strongly and escape uncontrollably!

• Disconnect the pump from the mains and allow the pump and the water it contains to cool down.
• Do not put the pump back into operation until all defects have been rectified!
• The risk of injury from hot water can be increased with:
• improper installation,
• closed pressure side,
• Lack of water in the suction line or
  • defective pressure switch.

Procedure in case of overheating

1. Disconnect the pump from the mains and allow the pump and the water to cool down.
2. Check the pump, the installation, and the water level.
3. Do not put the pump back into operation until all faults have been rectified!
