Q: Where is the on/off switch for the RIBIMEX JET121 pump?

This pump does not have a physical on/off switch on its body. The operation is very simple: Starting: Simply plug the power cable (230V - 50Hz) into an electrical outlet. The pump starts automatically. Stopping: Unplug the cable from the power outlet. Important before the first start: Unscrew the filling cap located on the body of the pump and fill it completely with water until it overflows. This step is essential because the pump must be primed before it can operate. If you want more convenient control (remote on/off), you can use a power strip with a built-in switch or a smart plug to turn the pump on and off without plugging/unplugging the cable.

Question 1

How to prime the RIBIMEX JET121 pump?

Accepted Answer

To prime your RIBIMEX JET121 pump, follow this simple procedure:

Manual Priming

Unscrew the filling cap located on the body of the pump
Fill the pump body with clean, clear water until it overflows
Tighten the cap securely to prevent any air intake
Check the connections of the suction hose to ensure they are airtight
Plug the pump into a 230V outlet to start

This manual operation is only necessary at the first start-up or after a prolonged stop. The JET121 is a self-priming pump, which means it only needs to be primed once if it remains continuously powered.

Important: do not splash water on the electrical components during this operation. Use clean water that is free of particles, as the JET121 can only handle clear water.
