Note!
When installing, never hang the equipment by the
discharge line or by the power cable. The equipment
must be hung up with the provided carry handle or it
must rest on the bottom of the shaft. To ensure that
the equipment works properly, the bottom of the shaft
always must be free of sludge and other
accumulations of dirt. If the water level is too low, the
sludge in the shaft can quickly dry out and hinder the
equipment from starting. It is necessary therefore to
check the equipment regularly (carry out trial start-
ups).
Note:
The pump shaft should be large enough.
5.3 Mains connection
The equipment you have purchased comes with an
earthing-pin plug. The equipment is designed for
connection to a socket outlet with earthing contact for
230 V ~ 50 Hz. Make sure that the socket-outlet is
sufficiently fused (at least 6 A) and in good working
order. Insert the power plug in the socket-outlet and
the equipment is ready for operation.
Important!
To rule out danger, this work must be left strictly to a
specialist electrician or Customer Service.
6. Operation
You can put the equipment into operation after you
have thoroughly read the installation and operating
instructions. Pay attention to the following points:
Make sure that the equipment is set up securely.
n
Check that the discharge line is fitted correctly.
n
Make sure that the electrical connection is 230 V
n
~ 50 Hz.
Check that the electrical socket-outlet is in good
n
working order.
Make sure that no moisture or water can ever
n
reach the power connection.
Make sure that the equipment does not run dry.
n
To switch off the equipment, pull the power plug
n
out of the socket outlet.
Function of the integrated floating switch
Automatic mode:
The selector switch (A) must be in the lower position
during automatic mode (Fig. 5).
This activates the integrated floating switch. The
activation height is approximately 12 cm. The pump
switches off again at approximately 3 cm.
14
Manual mode/shallow water:
The selector switch (A) must be in the upper position
to operate manually or in shallow water (Fig. 6). This
bridges the integrated floating switch so that the
equipment runs continuously. In manual mode water
can be sucked up until a level of 2 mm remains.
Please note:
For the equipment to suck up water in manual mode
there must be a minimum depth of 50 mm of water!
Important!
The equipment is not allowed to run dry!
7. Replacing the power cable
If the power cable for this equipment is damaged, it
must be replaced by the manufacturer or its after-
sales service or by similarly trained personnel to
avoid danger.
8. Cleaning, maintenance and ordering
of spare parts
Important!
Unplug the power plug prior to any maintenance
n
work.
For mobile applications, the equipment should be
n
cleaned with clear water after every usage.
For stationary installation, it is recommended that
n
you check the floating switch for proper operation
every three months.
Use a water jet to remove any lint or fibrous
n
particles that may have become trapped in the
housing.
Remove sludge from the shaft bottom and clean
n
the shaft walls every 3 months.
Use clear water to remove deposits from the
n
floating switch.
8.1 Cleaning the paddle wheel
If a lot of deposits collect in the housing, the bottom
part of the equipment must be dismantled as follows:
1. Disconnect the intake cage from the housing.
2. Clean the paddle wheel with clear water.
Important! Do not put down or rest the equipment
on the paddle wheel!
3. Assemble in reverse order.
8.2 Maintenance
There are no parts inside the equipment which
require additional maintenance.
