- Monitor the equipment during operation (particularly in residential spaces, in order to detect automatic switching off or dry running of the pumps in time. Regularly check the function of the float switch (see chapter "initial operation"). Non-observance will invalidate all guarantee and liability claims.
- Please note that the pump is not suitable for continuous operation (e.g. for watercourses in garden ponds). Check the equipment regularly for correct functioning.
- Note that the lubricants used in the equipment may cause damage or contamination if they escape. Do not use the pump in garden ponds with fish stocks or valuable plants.
- Do not carry or fix the equipment by the cable or pressure line.
- Protect the equipment from frost and from running dry.
- Use only original accessories and do not carry out conversion work on the equipment.
- Please read the notes in the operating instructions on the topic of "maintenance and cleaning". Any measures above and beyond these, particularly opening the equipment, are to be carried out by an electrician. In the case of repairs, always contact our service centre.
Electrical safety:
Caution: to avoid accidents and injuries from electric shocks:
- The equipment is not to be operated if there are people in the water. There is a risk of electric shock.
- After erection, the mains plug must be freely accessible when the equipment
GB
is in operation.
- Before operating your new pump, have a specialist check:
- The earthing, the protective multiple earthing; the residual current circuit breaking must be compliant with the safety regulations of the energy supply company and function without fault, - The protection of the electrical plug connections from the wet.
- If there is a risk of flooding, fix the plug connections in an area that is safe from flooding.
- Ensure that the mains voltage matches the specifications on the rating plate.
- The electrical installation shall be according to national wiring rules.
- Connect the equipment only to a socket with a residual current protection device (residual current circuit breaker) with a rated current of not more than 30 mA; minimum fuse 6 amperes.
- Before each use, check the equipment, cable and plug for damage. Defective cables are not to be repaired, but rather replaced by new ones. Have damage on your equipment repaired by an authorised specialist.
- If the power cable for this equipment is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, a customer service agent of the same or a similarly qualified person in order to prevent hazards.
- Do not pull the plug from the socket by the cable. Protect the cable from heat, oil and sharp edges.
- Do not carry or fix the equipment by the cable.
- Use only extension cables that are protected from spray water and designed for outdoor use. Always fully unroll a cable drum before use. Check the cable for damage.
- Disconnect the mains plug from the socket before all work on the equipment, in case of leaks in the water system, during work breaks, and when not in use.
- The cross-section of mains connection lines must be no smaller than rubber hose lines with the designation H07RN8-F. The line must be 10 m long. The flexible lead cross-section of the extension cord must at least 2.5 mm ^2 .
Start-up
Assembly
To screw-on the adapter:
Screw the angle adapter (11) and the adapter with the hose connection (9) onto the pump outlet (5).
Installing the float switch
- Position the float switch cable (7) in the float switch grid (8).
Connection of the pressure line
The installation of the submersible water pump is implemented either
- with fixed pipe or
- with flexible hose line
- If using a 12'' hose, attach the hose over the pump's hose connection (9) and fasten it with a hose clamp if necessary.
- To use a 34 ", 1" or 112 " hose, cut off the connection above and attach the hose over the correct connection (fixing with a hose clamp).
- To use a tap adaptor (IG 1 12 ") to connect external hose connec-
tion systems, cut off the three top connections directly above the G 1 12 " tube thread.
The measurement of the maximum performance data takes place under optimal conditions, such as a straight, direct exit. The angle adapter (A 11) and the backflow stopper (E 10) may reduce output.
To increase pump output, the backflow stopper (10) may be taken out of the angle adapter (11) (see E "replacing backflow stopper"). This is particularly recommended for hose connections smaller than 1". Please bear in mind that the water may then flow back during pumping, or in the event of a power cut.
To erect/suspend
The pump can be erected or suspended in the water.
The cord (A 12) contained in the delivery contents may be used to suspend and/or extract the pump.
The pump shaft should have the dimensions 40 × 40 × 50 cm at least, so that the float switch can move freely.
Fix the nylon rope (12) onto the carrying handle (1).
Ensure that the equipment is not hung up or held by the mains cable. There is a risk of electric shock from damaged mains cables.
Note that, over time, dirt and sand may collect on the bottom of the shaft, which could damage the
pump.
We recommend placing the pump on a brick or a grid.
If the water level is too low, the silt in the shaft can quickly dry out and impede the pump when warming up.
Controls before operational start-up
- Check that the float switch is working (see chapter: "Operation").
- Check that the pump is resting on the pit base
- Check that the pressure line has been attached properly
- Check the proper status of the electrical plug socket and make sure that the plug socket is sufficiently fused (at least 6 A). Insert the pump plug into the plug socket and the pump is ready for operation.
- Make sure that moisture or water never come in contact with the mains connection. There is a risk of electrocution.
Operation
Mains connection
The submersible water pump acquired by you is already provided with an grounded plug. The equipment is designed for connection to an earthed wall socket with a residual current operated device (RCD switch) at 230 V \~ 50 Hz.
Only start to operate the device after all the above conditions have been observed.
Switching on and off
- Insert the plug in the socket. The pump starts working immediately.
- To switch off, withdraw the plug from the socket. The pump stops.
If the water level is too low, the float switch will automatically switch off the pump.
Working
Supervise the appliance while it is in operation in order to be immediately aware if the automatic cut-out operates or the pump runs dry, to limit any damage to a minimum.
In automatic mode, the float switch automatically switches the pump on or off.
Adjusting the float switch:
The on/off switch point on the float switch (A 6) can be adjusted by changing the position of the float switch in the float switch grid (A 8).
In the case of stationary installation, check regularly (no less then once every three months) that the float switch (A 6) is working.
Check the float switch( 6):
must be positioned so that it can lift and lower freely. The switching point heights "On" and "Off" must be easy to reach.
Check this by placing the pump into a vessel filled with water and lift the float switch (6) carefully by hand and then lower it
again. In this case, you can see whether the pump switches on and off.
- Ensure that the distance between the float switch and the float switch grid (A 8) is not too small.
- During the adjustment of the float switch (6), ensure that the float switch does not contact the floor before the pump switches off.
The pump will run dry if too long a float switch cable (A 7) is chosen.
Maintenance and Cleaning
Clean and maintain your equipment regularly. This will guarantee its performance and long durability.
Ask our service centre to carry out any work that is not described in these instructions. Use only original parts. There is a risk of injury!
Pull out the power plug before every maintenance operation. There is a risk of electrocution or of injury from moving parts.
General cleaning instructions
- In case of transport for utilization in different locations, the pump must be cleaned with clear water after every use.
- In case of stationary installation, the function of the float switch (A 6) is to be checked regularly (at the latest np every three months).
-
With a water jet, remove fluff and fibrous particles which are possibly present in the pump casing (A 3).
-
Clean precipitation from the float switch (A 6) with clear water.
- Regularly remove sludge from the pit base (at the latest every 3 months) and also clean the shaft walls
To replace the backflow stop
Replace a defective backflow stop (see "Replacement parts/Accessories").
-
Unscrew the adapter with the hose connection (9) on the angle adapter (11) and remove the backflow stop (10a) and seal (10b).
-
Insert the seal (10b) into the back flow stop (10a).
- Set the backflow stop (10) between the angle adapter (11) and the adapter with the hose connection (9) in such a manner that the stop is opened in the flowing direction and closed against the flowing direction.
To clean the paddle wheel
In the case of too severe precipitation in the pump casing (3), the lower part of the pumps must be disassembled as follows:
-
Loosen the 3 screws (4a) on the underside of the base (4) and take off the base.
-
Clean the paddle wheel with clear water.
Caution! Do not place or support the pump on the paddle wheel!
- Insert the sealing ring (13) into the base (4).
- Position the base (4) on the pump casing (3) such that the notch (14) on the base (4) is at the level of the pump output (5).
Any measures above and beyond these, particularly opening the equipment, are to be carried out by an electrician. In the case of repairs, always contact our service centre.
Storage
- Clean the pump before storage.
- Store the appliance in a dry, frost-free place, and where children cannot gain access to it.
- When the pump is not to be used for a longer period, it must be thoroughly cleaned after its last use, and before it is next used. Otherwise there may be problems in starting the pump, caused by deposits and residues.

This equipment is provided with a 3-year guarantee from the date of purchase. In case of defects, you have statutory rights against the seller of the product. These statutory rights are not restricted by our guarantee presented below.
Terms of Guarantee
The term of the guarantee begins on the date of purchase. Please retain the original receipt. This document is required as proof of purchase.
If a material or manufacturing defect occurs within three years of the date of purchase of this product, we will repair or replace – at our choice – the product for you free of charge. This guarantee requires the defective equipment and proof of purchase to be presented within the three-year period with a brief written description of what constitutes the defect and when it occurred.
If the defect is covered by our guarantee, you will receive either the repaired product or a new product. No new guarantee period begins on repair or replacement of the product.
Guarantee Period and Statutory Claims for Defects
The guarantee period is not extended by the guarantee service. This also applies for replaced or repaired parts. Any damages and defects already present at the time of purchase must be reported immediately after unpacking. Repairs arising after expiry of the guarantee period are chargeable.
Guarantee Cover
The equipment has been carefully produced in accordance with strict quality guidelines and conscientiously checked prior to delivery.
The guarantee applies for all material and manufacturing defects. This guarantee does not extend to cover product parts that are subject to normal wear and may therefore be considered as wearing parts (e.g. backflow stop, sealing ring) or to cover damage to breakable parts (e.g. switches, batteries, or parts made of glass).
This guarantee shall be invalid if the product has been damaged, used incorrectly or not maintained. Precise adherence to all of the instructions specified in the operating manual is required for proper use of the product. Intended uses and actions against which the operating manual advises or warns must be categorically avoided.
The product is designed only for private and not commercial use. The guarantee will be invalidated in case of misuse or improper handling, use of force, or interventions not undertaken by our authorised service branch.
In the case of pumping water containing sand or aggressive liquids or other incorrect, non-design-appropriate use, as well as in case of non-observance of the operating manual, application of force in use or inappropriate or insufficient maintenance, no guarantee claim exists, since seals, impeller wheel, motor or other parts are damaged by this. Also, sewage water pumps are not suitable for the pumping of abrasive materials (sand, stone).
Note: submersible pumps are drainage pumps. This kind of pump is constructed with the purpose of transporting or removing a certain volume of water – depending on its output category – as quickly as possible. Submersible pumps are not intended as irrigation (for example, in garden ir-
rigation systems) or as constant water-flow pumps (such as in artificial streams or ornamental fountains). Inappropriate use will invalidate the warranty.
Periodically check that the float switch is operational. Warranty and liability claims will be void in case on non-compliance or if the pump runs dry.
In particular, the guarantee is likewise void in the case of employment of the sewage water pumps without base plate or (this applies for all pumps) in case of damages which are caused by supporting on or suspending from the mains cable. The pumps must not be run dry or exposed to frost.
