Illustration
 Adjust float switch.
The float switch can be adjusted in
order to adjust the switch-on and
switch-off height.
Reducing the distance between the
float switch and the holder results in
a higher switch-on level and a lower
switch-off level.
Leave sufficient space so that the
float switch can move freely.
 Attach fastening rope (not included
in the scope of delivery) to the han-
dle.
 Lower the pump on the fastening
rope into the fluid to be delivered.
 Secure the fastening rope.
Illustration
The maximum immersion depth (h1)
describes the depth of the water in
which the pump can still be installed.
Usually it is not necessary to lower the
pump to the maximum immersion
depth.
The delivery height (h2) describes the
height difference between the water
level and the water outlet at the end of
the delivery hose. The maximum deliv-
ery height must be observed so that
the pump can deliver. This must be ob-
served over the entire pathway of the
pump, as the delivery height will in-
crease with the falling water level (due
to pumping).
The fluid level must be at least 5 cm for
the pump to draw independently.
 Insert the mains plug into the sock-
et.
Caution
Dry running damages the pump.

Do not leave the pump unat-
tended during operation.

Alternatively use a dry run
protection or an electronic
pressure switch with dry run
protection (see optional ac-
cessories).
 Disconnect the main plug from the
socket.
ƽ Danger
Risk of electric shock. Turn off
the appliance and remove the
mains plug prior to performing
any care and maintenance work.
Note:
Soiling can deposit and lead to mal-
functions.
Rinse the pump with clear water at reg-
ular intervals.
 Disconnect the main plug from the
socket.
 Clean the intake grille using a suita-
ble brush and rinse with clear water.
