Safe operation
• Do not carry or pull the unit by its electrical cable.
• Route cables/hoses such that they are protected from damage and do not present a tripping hazard.
• Only use original spare parts and accessories for the unit.
• In the case of electrical units and installations with a rated voltage of U > 12 V AC or U >30 V DC located in the wa-
ter: Isolate the units and installations (switch off and disconnect from the power supply) before reaching into the wa-
ter.
• Only operate the pump together with the supplied solar module.
• Do not allow the pump to run dry.
• Protect the unit from knocks or vibration.
• Clean the unit at least twice a year.
• Keep the connection plugs dry.
Installation and connection
How to proceed:
B
1. Assemble the nozzle unit and fit onto the pump.
– Adapt the number of nozzle extensions used to the depth of the pond.
2. Set the desired pump flow rate.
– To increase: Turn the control knob counterclockwise.
– To reduce: Turn the control knob clockwise.
– Recommendation: The maximum flow rate is the optimum setting for the fountain display. For this, turn the con-
trol knob counterclockwise.
3. Connect the connection cable to the solar module.
– Push the plug completely into the socket (up to the stop) to ensure that the connection is watertight.
– Switching on: Connect the pump to the solar module.
– Switching off: Disconnect the solar module from the pump.
4. Assemble the ground stake set and attach it to the solar module.
– Ensure that the connection cable is routed downwards.
5. Fix the pump underwater to a smooth, clean surface using the suction cups.
6. Install the solar module so that it is exposed to direct sunlight.
– Recommendation: Align the solar module to the sun to ensure maximum energy yield.
