Operating instructions
TRANSPORT
STARTING
Check the power cable with mains plug for damage
before every use. If the power cable is damaged,
exchange it immediately.
Check whether the power supply matches the rating
on the Data plate.
Check whether the fluid to be pumped matches the
characteristics mentioned in section Technical
details.
The minimum start water level is approx. 35 mm.
Attach a suitable hose to the outlet and make sure it is
thoroughly tightened. Avoid making excessive bends
in delivery hoses or piping, as this may cause reduced
flow. Turn discharge in horizontal (1) or vertical (2)
direction according to application.
Run the electric cable so that sharp bends are avoided
and there is no danger of the cable being pinched or
otherwise being damaged.
Take care that the pump is submerged before putting
the plug in the socket. Never install the pump directly
on a weak soil layer or muddy ground. The pump may
sink and mud/soil may enter the pump and reduce the
flow. Check that the pump is pumping.
In case the motor stops due to overload or a blocked
impeller, first pull the plug out of the socket before
removing the pump from the pump site to check for
why the pump has stopped. Remove the blockage, let
the pump cool down and resume pumping.
STOPPING
Take the plug out of the socket and take the pump out
of the pump site. If the pump has been operating in
dirty water, allow it to run in clean water for a short
period or flush clean water through the discharge port.
If clay, cement or other sticky dirt remain in the pump
this may clog the impeller and seal area.
Always use the handle to lift the pump.
Never use the power cable to lift or
transport the pump. Always be careful
not to let it fall or bump it against the
wall or other equipment.
The pump may not be used in an
explosive / inflammable environment or
used to pump inflammable liquids!
If the pump is being used for pumping
water out of a swimming pool:
• nobody is allowed to be in the pool
during pumping,
• the pump must be connected via a
residual current device having a
rated residual operating current not
exceeding 30 mA.
Never operate the pump without the
strainer.
