Maintenance
Before you carry out checking or cleaning tasks on the pump you must
switch it off and remove the plug from the socket.
Your submersible pump is more or less maintenance-free. The only tasks you must
carry out are as follows:
 Carry out a regular visual inspection. Make sure the pump is not damaged.
Check the electrical cable, the plug, the float switch and the float cable for
damage too. If you discover damage, you must take the device to your supplier
or an accredited professional. Never attempt to carry out repairs yourself and
never open the pump!
 Regularly check that the float switch is working effectively, particularly if you
have set the pump to work automatically (every 3 months).
 Regularly remove residues from the float with clean water.
 Regularly check (by putting your fingers into the suction openings) whether any
dirt (fibres, residues) has accumulated around the blade. Remove it if this is the
case. If you cannot do so, take the pump to your supplier or to an accredited
professional to open the device and remove the residue.
If you cannot do so, take the pump to your supplier or to an accredited
professional to open the device and remove the residue.
 If you regularly use the pump at different locations, you must rinse with clean
water (inside and out) after each use.
 Keep the base of the well (or the tile on which the pump is positioned) free from
mud and residue.
 Ensure that the pump does not freeze. Before winter sets in, run the pump dry
and store it in a frost-free location.
