Installation
Attention! Dangerous electrical voltage.
Possible consequences: Death or severe injury.
Protective measures:
• Electrical units and installations with a rated voltage of U > 12 V AC or U >30 V DC located in the water:
Isolate the units and installations (switch off and disconnect from the power supply) before reaching into
the water.
• Isolate the unit before starting any work.
• Secure the unit to prevent unintentional switching on.
Grounding instructions
This appliance must be grounded. In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding will reduce the risk
of electric shock by providing a path of least resistance for electric current. This appliance is equipped with a
cord having an appliance-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an ap-
propriate outlet that is installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
Warning
Improper connection of the appliance-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. Check with a
qualified electrician or service representative if you are in doubt whether the appliance is properly grounded.
Do not modify the plug provided with the appliance; if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by
a qualified technician.
A
Oase recommends hoses suitable for a minimum pressure of 7.2 psi (0.5 bar).
Cut the stepped hose adapters such that the connection opening coincides with the hose diameter. This helps avoid
pressure loss.
Ensure that the unit is placed at a flood protected place and on firm ground. Keep a minimum distance from the pond
edge of 6.6 ft (2 m). Ensure unrestricted access to the cover to be able to carry out work on the unit. (A1)
Push or turn the hose onto the stepped hose adapter, secure with the hose clip, then screw the stepped hose adapter
on the water inlet (A2).
Ensure that the drain pipes for the water return (A4) are laid towards the pond with a suitable incline (>1 %). Oase rec-
ommends to return the clean water into the pond via a water course to additionally enrich the water with oxygen.
An optional adapter set is available for the cleaning outlet (A3). For this purpose, remove the cover cap from the clean-
ing outlet. Push the union nut over the hose, slide the stepped hose adapter without thread onto the hose end and se-
cure with the hose clip. Connect the stepped hose adapter with union nut and flat seal to the cleaning outlet. Push the
stepped hose adapter with thread onto the other hose end, secure with the hose clip and screw on the cover cap in-
cluding flat seal. Lay the hose with a suitable incline (>1 %) towards the sewage system or to a flower bed.
