The following measures must be undertaken: (see fig. 2)
- Build a shaft with pedestal for the pump, at least 2 m away from the edge of the water.
- Protect the shaft with a cover.
- To protect the pump from flooding build a drain for the shaft.
- Attach the pump to the pedestal with screws.
- Install a "M" metal socket in the suction line, toward the pump, to connect to the equipotential bonding
of the swimming pond/swimming pool system!

Safety measures
- Before use: Check whether mains lead and plug are intact.
- Mains voltage and kind of current have to conform to the information on the type plate.
- The pump may only be connected to a proper earthing-contact type socket through a residual
current device (RCD, 30 mA).
- The connection box should be located in a water-protected area and at least 2 m away from the
edge of the water (see fig. 1 + 2).
- Always keep the plug dry.
- Important! If the mains lead or the motor housing are damaged, the pump cannot be used anymore. It
cannot be repaired since the lead is permanently encapsulated in the motor housing.
- Do never hang up or transport the pump by the mains lead.

Important! Do not let the pump run dry. This could cause damages to the appliance.
- Immerse the pump completely in your pond. This causes the pump body to be filled with water.
- A minimum water depth of 20 cm is required for underwater operation to avoid the pump taking in air.
- The maximum depth for submerged operation of
the pump is 2 m!
2 m
- The water temperature should not exceed 35°C.
- Do not let the pump freeze in the wintertime.
- The pump is switched on by putting the plug in the socket.
- To prevent the pump becoming unnecessarily dirty, place it above the mud in your pond, in a firm and
horizontal position (on a brick)!
- A range of accessories may be fitted onto the threaded connections of the pump.
- The filter caps delivered are sufficient as suction protection in clear water.
