– Submerge the pump at an angle into the liquid to
be delivered so that no air pocket forms on the
underside of the appliance. Suction would be
prevented by this. Once the pump is submerged,
it can be righted again.
– Leave the pump on the bottom of the liquid con-
tainer. Use a strong rope attached to the carry-
ing handle of the pump for lowering.
– Tighten the end of the rope firmly after lowering.
The pump can also be operated while suspended on
a rope.
Operation
After the appliance has been connected to the mains
power supply, it is switched on and off automatically
by the float switch:
• The pump begins to deliver when the float switch
is lifted up by the liquid (1).
• The pump switches off when the float switch has
sunk to the bottom (2).
The cable for the float switch can be adjusted in the
cable holder (3). The distance between cut-in and
cut-off point is adjusted in this way:
• Short cable: Cut-in and cut-off points are very
close together.
• Long cable: Cut-in and cut-off points are very far
apart.
