IV. GETTING STARTED
Before any intervention on product, ensure that product is disconnected from its power source.
4.1- Unpacking
- Remove product from its packaging.
- Check that product and accessories are not damage
4.2- Important recommendations
Before connecting to the power source, you must observe the following:
- The device must be placed on a horizontal, leveled surface that is sufficiently capable of supporting the
total weight of the device when filled with water.
- Make sure that the power supply corresponds with the connection specifications of the device (see rating
label).
WARNING!
- The warranty does not cover accidents due to improper installation. This pump must be installed in
accordance with local standards and by a qualified person (we recommend you to contact an electrician).
- The fixed pipeline that will connect the pump must include a separation device having contacts with the
opening distance of at least 3 mm in all poles.
- It is recommended that the device be connected with a residual current of not more than 30 mA by means of a
residual-current-operated protective device
- The total head must not exceed the value stated on the Specifications Table.
- The cable must be at least cable [see specs table].
- To prevent vibrations, the device should be placed on an elastic support (e. g. a rubber mat).
- The installation site must be well ventilated and protected from the effects of weather.
- When being used near garden ponds and swimming pools, the device must be set up so as to guard against
overflowing and protected against falling in.
- Additional legal requirements must be observed
- When operating indoors you must ensure that there is a drain in the floor or a leak prevention mechanism.
- Before starting up, check the suction hose to ensure that it is sealed. Bubbles of air in the suction hose are
an indication that there may be leaks and may lead to failure of the device.
4.3- Electrical connection
a) Make sure that the power supply corresponds with the connection specifications of the device (see rating
label).
b) Check that the power cable is not damaged.
c) Connect plug to a wall socket 10/16A fitted with a ground connection.
d) Switch on the pump for 2 to 3 seconds to perform a dry run test of the pump.
Do not operate the pump without water for more than 2 to 3 seconds to avoid overheating. This will cause
permanent damage.
e) Disconnect the pump from the power supply (remove the plug from the wall socket), and then proceed
with suction and delivery line connection, as described in the following paragraphs.
f) Ensure that the electrical connection is protected against water splashing.
g) When operating outdoors, the electrical connections must be splash-proof; they must not lie in water.
h) Extension cords must have sufficient wire cross section; cable drums must be complete unwound.
