Attention
Inspect the flex and the electric connections prior to use for any damage. Take care
that the plug and the receptacle are dry. For safety reasons any repairs to the flex and
the pump motor may only be carried out by VT (see guarantee).
MAINTENANCE
Not only to remove trouble, but also to be sure of a satisfactory water yield, the
preliminary filter scale and impeller should be cleaned regularly. To this end you
should proceed as follows:
l Deactivate the power voltage and remove the pump from the pond.
l Open the preliminary filter scale.
l Open the motor case by turning the impeller holder.
l Carefully remove the impeller from the motor case.
l Clean all parts under freely running water, using a soft brush.
l Assemble all parts in reverse order. Take care that the impeller will run smoothly
again in the motor housing and that the rubber ring is mounted in the right way.
Thermal security device
To prevent overheating and consequently damage to the motor, the pump has a built-
in thermal security device. Remember, if the motor is deactivated by overheating you
should check the following points before starting the pump again. Stop any activities
on the pump. Always switch off the power by pulling the plug out of the receptacle.
l Is the pump sufficiently immersed in the water?
l Is the preliminary filter scale polluted, as a result of which the water supply to the
pump stagnates?
l Is the impeller polluted?
l Are the nozzles or connecting pieces polluted?
l Has the pump cooled down sufficiently before restarting it?
As soon as these points have been found to be in order, the pump can be restarted.
ITEMS FOR SPECIAL ATTENTION
l Prevent the pump from running dry. The motor can be damaged.
l Never use the pump in the pond without preliminary filter scale. Please take care
that the accessoires you are using do not hamper the water flow.
l When the pump has been put into use, regular maintenance will have to be carried
out, which depends on the condition of the water, i.e. much or little dirt, in order to
clean dirt catching parts. When doing this, use a soft brush and ample clean water.
l During winter time, at temperatures below 0°C you should not use the Fountain
Jet Set. Properly clean all parts and store it indoors in a frost free place.
