3. Proper use

The equipment you have purchased is designed to pump water with a maximum temperature of 35^ C. This equipment must never be used for other liquids, especially not for engine fuels, cleaning agents and other chemically-based products!

The equipment can be used wherever you want to move water, e.g. in the house, in the garden, and for many other applications. It must not be used to operate swimming pools!

If you want to use the equipment in bodies of water with a natural, muddy bottom, place the equipment in a slightly elevated position, e.g. on bricks.

The equipment is not designed for continuous operation, e.g. as a circulating pump in a pond. In this case the equipment's anticipated life will be greatly shortened because the equipment was not designed for continuous loading.

The equipment is to be used only for its prescribed purpose. Any other use is deemed to be a case of misuse. The user / operator and not the manufacturer will be liable for any damage or injuries of any kind caused as a result of this.

Please note that our equipment has not been designed for use in commercial, trade or industrial applications. Our warranty will be voided if the machine is used in commercial, trade or industrial businesses or for equivalent purposes.

The water may be contaminated by escaping lubricating oil/lubricant.

5. Before starting the equipment

Before you connect the equipment to the mains supply make sure that the data on the rating plate are identical to the mains data.

5.1 Installation

The equipment can be installed either: • Stationary with a rigid pipe line

or
• Stationary with a flexible hose line

Connect the pressure hose or pipe to the pressure connector (1) using a suitable connector. Fasten the securing cable (4) to the suspension eyelet (Fig. 3/Item 2).

Notice!

Before you use the pump, clarify any possible special conditions which need to be fulfilled for the installation!

For example, additional safety measures may be needed if damage to property could result from a power failure, soiling or a defective gasket.

Examples of such safety measures:

Pumps running in parallel on a separately protected power circuit, moisture sensors for switching off the pumps, and similar safety arrangements. Be sure to consult a professional plumber if you have any doubt.

The maximum pumping rate is possible only with the largest possible line diameter; if smaller hoses or pipes are connected, the pumping rate will be reduced.

When installing, never hang the equipment by the discharge line or by the power cable. The device must be hung up by the provided suspension eyelets.

The pump shaft should be large enough.

5.2 Mains connection

Danger!

The equipment you have purchased comes with an earthing-pin plug. The equipment is designed for connection to a socket outlet with earthing contact for 220-240 V \~ 50 Hz. Make sure that the

GB

socket-outlet is sufficiently fused (at least 6 A) and in good working order. Insert the power plug in the socket-outlet and the equipment is ready for operation.

6. Operation

You can put the equipment into operation after you have thoroughly read the installation and operating instructions. Pay attention to the following points:

• Check that the discharge line is fitted correctly.
  • Make sure that the electrical connection is 220-240 V \~ 50 Hz.
• Check that the electrical socket-outlet is in good working order.
  • Make sure that no moisture or water can ever reach the power connection.
  • Make sure that the equipment does not run dry.
• To switch off the equipment, pull the power plug out of the socket outlet.

Important!

1. Lower the pump into the well or shaft using a securing cable.
2. Ensure that the pump is completely under the surface of the water and approx. 10 cm above the bottom.
3. Connect the mains plug to the socket.
   The pump starts approx. 3 seconds after the connection cable has been plugged in.

6.1 Automatic mode:

The pump is building up pressure (e.g. a water tap is closed) and then switches off automatically. The integrated non-return valve ensures that the pressure is maintained in the hose until water is drawn off again.

When the pressure drops below 3 bar, the pump switches on again automatically.

6.2 Dry-run safeguard:

The pump is switched off automatically is there is no longer any medium available.

After 5 seconds the pump switches on for 30 seconds. After that the pump runs in three cycles with 5 seconds OFF and 20 seconds ON. If there is still no output, the pump starts again after 1 hour, 5 hours and finally after 24 hours.

Important!

If you find that the pump is running dry, make sure that the discharge line is always closed.

7. Replacing the power cable

Danger!

If the power cable for this equipment is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or its after-sales service or similarly trained personnel to avoid danger.

8. Cleaning, maintenance and ordering of spare parts

Danger!

• Unplug the power plug prior to any maintenance work.
• For mobile applications, the equipment should be cleaned with clear water after every usage.
• Undo the fastening screws on the dirt screen (Figure 2/Item 3) and clean the dirt screen and intake section.
  • Insert the dirt screen again.

8.1 Maintenance

There are no parts inside the equipment which require additional maintenance.

8.2 Ordering replacement parts:
