9. Decommissioning
If the submersion pressure pump is to be disconnected from the hose (e.g. for cleaning, maintenance or
storage in winter), proceed as follows:
• Disconnect the submersion pressure pump from the power supply, pull the mains plug from the mains
socket.
• Pull the submersion pressure pump from the water by the attachment rope or carry handle.
The submersion pressure pump must never be pulled out by the mains cable or hose! This may
damage the mains cable; there is danger to life from electric shock!
• Disconnect the hose from the submersion pressure pump.
• Let residual water run out of the submersion pressure pump by holding it diagonally or turning it upside-
down.
• Dry the submersion pressure pump and the mains cable. Coil up the mains cable.
• Store the submersion pressure pump in a frost-protected and dry room over winter.
Also consider emptying the hoses placed outdoors to prevent frost damage; open any water taps
that may be installed.
• Carry or transport the submersion pressure pump only by the carry handle. Never hold it by the hose or
even the mains cable.
• After operation or emptying, a small amount of water may be retained in the submersion pressure pump.
Therefore, use a suitable support when storing or transporting it in a vehicle.
10. Maintenance and Cleaning
The submersion pressure pump has no parts that require maintenance by you. Therefore, never open or
disassemble it. Maintenance or repair and opening of the submersion pressure pump in this context must
only be performed by a specialist or specialist workshop.
Before cleaning, switch off the submersion pressure pump and disconnect it from the mains voltage; pull
the mains plug from the mains socket.
To clean the outside of the submersion pressure pump, a dry, soft and clean cloth is sufficient. If required,
flush the outside with clear water.
Any contamination of intake openings may be removed under running water (e.g. garden hose). The sub-
mersion pressure pump inside may be flushed with running water as well by removing the hose and any
connection piece.
Dry the submersion pressure pump and the mains cable before storing it.
Never use any aggressive cleaning agents, cleaning alcohol or other chemical solutions, since
these may damage the casing or even impair function.
