Not illustrated: Operating instructions
Open the packaging and take out the equipment
n
with care.
Remove the packaging material and any
n
packaging and/or transportation braces (if
available).
Check to see if all items are supplied.
n
Inspect the equipment and accessories for
n
transport damage.
If possible, please keep the packaging until the
n
end of the guarantee period.
IMPORTANT
The equipment and packaging material are not
toys. Do not let children play with plastic bags,
foils or small parts. There is a danger of
swallowing or suffocating!
3. Proper use
Applications
Irrigation and watering of green areas, vegetable
n
beds and gardens.
Operation of lawn sprinklers.
n
For drawing water from ponds, streams, rainwater
n
butts, rainwater cisterns and springs
For supplying service water
n
Transport media:
For the pumping of clear water (fresh water),
n
rainwater or light suds/service water.
The maximum temperature of the fluid must not
n
exceed +35°C if the equipment is operated
permanently.
Do not use the equipment to pump inflammable,
n
gassing or explosive fluids.
The pumping of aggressive liquids (acids, alkalis,
n
silo seepage etc.) as well as liquids with abrasive
substances (sand) must likewise be avoided.
This equipment is not designed to convey
n
drinking water.
The equipment is to be used only for its prescribed
purpose. Any other use is deemed to be a case of
misuse. The user / operator and not the manufacturer
will be liable for any damage or injuries of any kind
caused as a result of this.
Please note that our equipment has not been
designed for use in commercial, trade or industrial
applications. Our warranty will be voided if the
machine is used in commercial, trade or industrial
businesses or for equivalent purposes.

5. Before putting the equipment into
operation
5.1 Connecting the intake line
The intake hose or pipe should have a minimum
n
diameter of 25 mm (1"); a diameter of 32 mm
(11/4") is recommended for suction heights
exceeding 5 m.
Connect the intake valve (foot valve) with intake
n
cage to the intake line.
Position the intake line so that it rises from the
n
water withdrawal point to the equipment. Avoid
positioning the suction pipe higher than the pump,
as this would delay the escape of air bubbles
from the suction pipe and impede the priming
process.
Install the intake and discharge lines in such a
n
way that they do not exert any mechanical
pressure on the equipment.
The intake valve should be low enough in the
n
water to ensure that if the water level falls, the
equipment will not run dry.
A leaking intake line will draw in air and therefore
n
not draw in any water.
5.2 Connecting the discharge line
Screw the adapter (11) onto the pressure
n
connection (1), then you can fasten the supplied
garden hose (12).
The discharge line (min. 19 mm (3/4")) must be
n
connected to the 33.3 mm (R1IG) female thread
discharge line connector of the equipment either
directly or with the aid of a threaded nipple.
With the right couplings it is also possible, of
n
course, to use a 13 mm (1/2") delivery hose. The
smaller delivery hose results in a lower delivery
rate.
During the priming operation, fully open any shut-
n
off mechanisms (spray nozzles, valves, etc.) in
the pressure line so that the air can escape
