Intended Use
The solar pump has been designed for fountain, pond or outdoor use; the Pump
drives its power from a solar module directly. In order for the pump to operate,
the solar module needs to be placed in direct sunlight. The performance of the
pump depends on the season and the position of the solar module.
Assembling and Setting up
 Unpack and check all components.
 Remove the plug from the connection plug of the solar cell. You can keep the
stopper in the unused socket next to it during operation.
 Plug the connection cable of the pump into the socket on the solar cell. Attach
the outlet of the pump to the fountain pipe on the underside of the solar cell.
 Place the solar fountain on the surface of the water.
Attention: Do not allow the pump to run dry, do not lift the pump by the power
cord, operate in freshwater only and do not strike the solar panel
Handling solar pumps
 The output of the solar pump varies depending on the season, depending on
the duration and strength of the sunlight received.
 In the case of prolonged weather periods without sufficient solar radiation, it
can happen that the charge level of the battery is too low to enable lighting
for a longer period of time. The battery is charged with less energy during the
day than energy is withdrawn at night. This inevitably shortens the lighting
time. In this way, the battery can be deeply discharged and thus damaged.
 Make sure that the solar panel is not dirty or covered by snow and ice in
winter. This reduces the performance of the solar panel. Cold temperatures
have a negative influence on the battery life. If you do not need the solar light
for a long time, e.g. in winter, it should be cleaned and stored in a dry, warm
room.
Cleaning and Maintenance
Pump: If, after a period of time, the pump starts to lose power or stops working
check for the build up of sediment, scale or dirt in the filter. Remove the pump
cover and the impeller cover. Clean them and the filter by fresh water.
Solar panel: The panel should be cleaned periodically with a soft tissue. Regular
cleaning of the panel is advised to maintain optimum conversion of the sun's
energy into direct current.
