breaking must be compliant with
the safety regulations of the energy
supply company and function with-
out fault,
- The protection of the electrical plug
connections from the wet.
- If there is a risk of flooding, fix the
plug connections in an area that is
safe from flooding.
• Ensure that the mains voltage matches
the specifications on the rating plate.
• The electrical installation shall be ac-
cording to national wiring rules.
• Connect the equipment only to a sock-
et with a residual current protection
device (residual current circuit breaker)
with a rated current of not more than
30 mA; minimum fuse 6 amperes.
• Before each use, check the equipment,
cable and plug for damage. Defec-
tive cables are not to be repaired, but
rather replaced by new ones. Have
damage on your equipment repaired
by an authorised specialist.
• If the power cable for this equipment is
damaged, it must be replaced by the
manufacturer, a customer service agent
of the same or a similarly qualified
person in order to prevent hazards.
• Do not pull the plug from the socket by
the cable. Protect the cable from heat,
oil and sharp edges.
• Do not carry or fix the equipment by
the cable.
• Use only extension cables that are pro-
tected from spray water and designed
for outdoor use. Always fully unroll a
cable drum before use. Check the ca-
ble for damage.
• Disconnect the mains plug from the
socket before all work on the equip-
ment, in case of leaks in the water sys-
tem, during work breaks, and when not
in use.
• The cross-section of mains connection
lines must be no smaller than rub-
ber hose lines with the designation
H07RN-F. The line must be 10 m long.
The flexible lead cross-section of the ex-
tension cord must at least 2.5 mm

Initial Operation
Positioning/Hanging
• The dimensions of the pump shaft must
be not less than 40 x 40 x 50 cm, in
order that the float switch (
7) can
move freely.
• The pump can be suspended by the
round handle (
1) or placed on the
shaft floor.
The pump can be suspended and/
or removed using the cable (
11)
provided.
To hang up safely, loop the cord
around both of the cable holders that
are pointing downwards and pull it up-
wards through the round handle.
Never suspend the pump by the
hose.
Ensure that the equipment is
not hung up or held by the
mains cable. There is a risk
of electric shock from dam-
aged mains cables.
Note that, over time, dirt and sand
may collect on the bottom of the
shaft, which could damage the
pump.
We recommend standing the pump
on a brick.
If the water level is too low, the silt in
the shaft can quickly dry out and im-
pede the pump when warming up.
