When working on the pump, always unplug from the electrical outlet to
cut off the power supply.
The pump may only be used if it has an adequate supply of water.
The pump may only be used for pumping fresh water, without any
chemical additives or other aggressive components, with a maximum
temperature of 35°C.
Commissioning the pump when installing in water
(figures 1 and 5).
Important: Do not run the pump dry as this may damage the pump.
Place the pump in the water to fill it up.
To avoid unnecessary contamination, place the pump on solid stone tiles
to prevent it from standing in and ingesting sludge.
Make sure that the water is at least 10cm deep to prevent the pump
from sucking air.
Maximum immersion depth of the pump is 2 m under water.
Place the pump housing in the appropriate position and assemble the
accessories on the cable connection to the pump.
Start the pump by inserting the plug into the socket.
Care should be taken to protect the pump from frost and freezing.
Commissioning the pump in dry installation conditions:
(figures 2, 3 and 5)
The pump can also be installed out of the water.
Remove the pump suction basket.
Place the pump underwater next to the pond so that water can flow into
the pump (the pump will not suck in water of its own accord).
Put the pump housing in the right position and connect a suction
hose/pipe (Z) and pressure hose/pipe (D) to the pump and ensure they
are air and watertight.
In order to use the pump, the suction hose/pipe (Z) must have been
filled with water.
Start the pump by inserting the plug into the socket.
Tip:
to protect the pump against contamination, the suction side must
be fitted with a pre-filter.
Care should be taken to protect the pump from frost and freezing.
Overuse safeguard
The built-in safeguard will switch the pump off in the event of overheating.
Remove the plug from the socket and allow the pump to cool down.
The pump must not be switched on after cooling unless it has been checked.
Check the following points:
Is sufficient water available?
Is the suction basket blocked?
Is there dirt in the pump housing (clean as set out in the instructions)?
Is the suction/pressure hose/pipe blocked for this or other, connected,
devices?
Has the pump cooled down enough?
Once the problem has been resolved, the pump can be switched on again by
re-inserting the plug into the socket.
