•
Put the frame and the float back into the body of the Skimmer.
4.6 POSITIONING THE CARTRIDGE (for models equipped with cartridge):
•
Take the float and the frame out of the body of the Skimmer.
•
Place the cartridge in the upper part of the Skimmer in the correct position for its anchorage.
•
Press until the cartridge is properly inserted in the Skimmer.
•
Put the frame and the float back into the body of the Skimmer.
4.7 ELECTRICAL CONNECTION:
•
Make sure the electrical plant complies with international prescriptions in force.
•
Check whether the product is compatible with the characteristics of your electrical plant.
•
The equipment must be connected to a 220/230 V. ca and 50 Hz outlet, with earth connection.
•
An omnipolar switch must be used to clear tension from the filter when it is not being used and a 30 mA. differential
must be used to prevent electric discharges. (Not provided. They can be purchased in electrical components stores).
•
THE TRASFORMER HAS TO BE PLACED AT A MINIMUM DISTANCE OF 3,5 [m] FROM THE EDGE OF THE
POOL.
5 OPERATION.
The operation of this equipment is based on the retention ability of the filtering sponges or cartridge (according to the
model) that are found inside it. To maintain the pool water in good condition, products such as chlorine, products for
algae, etc., which are recommended by the manufacturer, must be used (see pool manual). The period of use, the
environment, pollen, trees, and how often the pool is used are all factors which determine how dirty the pool water is; the
sponges or cartridge must therefore be washed more or less frequently in accordance (see 5.2).
NEVER INTRODUCE CHEMICALS IN THE BASKET THROUGH THE FOAMS OR THE CARTRIDGE. THIS WILL
DAMAGE THE MATERIALS OF THE APPARATUS AND WILL REDUCE ITS EFFICIENCY.
DO NOT USE FLOCCULATING AGENT!
5.1 FILTERING.
To start the equipment, check first that the pool is not being used then
plug in the apparatus. The equipment lasts longer if the period of
continuous use does not exceed 4 hours. Quantity of water to be
filtered depends on the volume in m
3
the flow in m /h of the different models of the apparatus. Let the motor rest for at least 2 [h] between one operation and
another.
In starting the filtering treatment, carefully respect the indicated resting periods. How much higher is the temperature of
the water in the pool, it is recommended to increase the operating time of the filter.
5.2 WASHING THE SPONGES AND CARTRIDGE.
Washing the sponges or the cartridge every week (or every 30 days) is recommended. For washing, carry out the
following:
•
Disconnect the equipment from the electrical outlet.
•
Take out the float and frame to extract the sponges or cartridge from the body of the Skimmer.
•
Put the sponges or cartridge under a bolt of water with a low-pressure rubber garden hose, until they are clean (Fig.
7).
•
Before putting the sponges or cartridge back into the apparatus, clean the inside of its seating with the rubber hose.
•
Make sure it is positioned correctly according to the specified order, in the case of the sponges (Fig. 6).
•
After various washing cycles, subsituting the sponges or cartridge could be necessary.
6 ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS.
To guarantee electrical safety, the equipment is fitted with an electrical unit protected against the entering of water, in the
case of the cable or one of its components deteriorating, the entire electrical unit must be substituted.
None of the components of the electrical unit must be mishandled, this could make the equipment completely unsafe.
EU directive 2012/19/EU classifies this product as an electrical or electronic tool. The barred bin symbol on the
equipment or packaging indicates that the product must be separated from other waste at the end of its working life.
Therefore, the user must take equipment to electronic and electro-technical waste collection centres at the end of its
working life or return it to the dealer when purchasing similar new equipment, on a one to one basis. Suitable
collection of decommissioned equipment for recycling, processing and environmentally compatible disposal
contributes in avoiding possible negative effects on the environment and health and promote the reuse and/or
recycling of device materials. Illicit product disposal by the user may be punishable by current national laws.
REPLACEMENT
6.1
In the case of the cable or one of its components deteriorating, carry out the following:
•
Disconnect the equipment from the electrical outlet.
•
Disassemble the equipment and take it out of the pool.
•
Disconnect the equipment from the transformer.
•
Unfasten the four screws which fasten the base, and carefully pull it towards the upper part of the pump+cables to
then be substituted.
•
Position the new pump by passing the cable under the base.
•
Fasten the four screws and fasten the base again, then connect the equipment to the transformer.
•
Reassemble the equipment in the pool by following the instructions in the paragraph INSTALLATION in this manual.
