Make sure that there are no air bubbles trapped in the hose. These would have a negative effect on
the power. To do this, lay the hose so that it ascends and avoid loops.
Position the pump
1
fully below the surface of the water, ideally at least 10 cm under the water
level. Align the pump
1
so that it is as level and horizontal as possible.
Do not place the pump
1
directly onto slimy or sandy surfaces. The ideal position is for it to be
raised, such as, for example, on a stone.
Never use the pump
1
without the filter grille
5
. This prevents the ingress of coarse dirt which
would damage the pump
1
.
By rotating the filter grille
5
you can regulate the flow rate. Turning clockwise: less flow; Turning
anti-clockwise: more flow. (see Fig. C)
In order to achieve the very best pumping results, the pump
1
must be positioned on a flat surface.
Only allow the pump
1
to operate when it is completely submersed in water.
If you use the pump
1
in an ornamental pond, position the pump
1
in an area which is as free of
sand as possible.
NOTE:
In order to achieve the maximum water flow, you must keep the hoses as short as possible.
Also, as far as possible there should be no kinks and/or large height differences. Ideally, you should use
hoses with the largest possible diameter, in order to achieve the greatest possible water flow rate.

Maintenance and cleaning
The pump
1
has been manufactured in a reliable, high-quality design, where the non-contact pump
wheel mechanism ensures a long period of operation. However the pump wheel unit
9
is susceptible
to contamination from the operating environment and must not be damaged.
CAUTION:
In order to clean the pump
1
or carry out maintenance work, always disconnect it first
by unplugging the mains plug
2
from the voltage supply. There is a risk of electric shock or risk of injury
through moving parts.
Always keep the mains plug
2
dry, before you connect the pump
1
back to the mains power
socket. In case of doubt, please contact your electrical specialist.
In order to clean the pump
1
, remove the front cover
4
and the pump wheel unit
9
. To lift off the
front cover
4
use a narrow flat-blade screwdriver to help you, if necessary. The round cover of the
pump wheel unit
8
has a bayonet connector and can be undone by turning it anti-clockwise.
The pump wheel unit
9
will simply be pulled out forwards. Use a small, soft brush or a water jet to
remove any dirt which is stuck on.
CAUTION:
The pump shaft cannot be removed. Re-assemble the pump
1
after cleaning by
following the instructions in reverse order.
Monthly maintenance will increase the service life of the pump
1
.
z
Troubleshooting
If the pump
1
does not work, check the following:
1. Check that there is sufficient water around the pump
1
.
2. Check the residual current protection switch of your mains socket and use another socket to make
sure that the pump
1
is being properly supplied with power. NOTE: Always unplug the mains plug
from the socket
2
before you touch the pump
1
.
3. If, when the pump is running, you can hear abnormal noises, check the pump wheel unit
9
.
To do this, unscrew the nozzle connector
6
or
7
from the pump in order to obtain access to the
