• During operation for swimming pools, garden ponds and similar places, the appliance must be equipped
with a residual current circuit breaker (RCCB) with a design fault current of not more than 30 mA.
• Do not kink, crush, drag or drive over the mains cable; protect against sharp edges, oil and heat.
• Extension cables must not be used.
• Disconnect the mains plug before all work on the appliance.
• Do not install and switch on the appliance if there are people or animals in the medium being pumped (e.
g. a swimming pool), or they are in contact with it.
• Children and young people under the age of 16 years must not use this appliance, and must be kept away
from it when it is in operation.
• Repairs must be carried out only by a qualified electrician.
• If repairs are carried out incorrectly, there is a danger of liquid penetrating into the electrical components
of the appliance.
Operation
Installation and commissioning
Attach a sufficiently long and strong rope to the handle before first use. The pump is submerged
into the liquid on this holding rope and can also be carried with it as well as with the handle.
Connect pressure pipe
Note:
i
En caso de uso continuo de la bomba con el cabo, se debe comprobar periódicamente el
estado del mismo puesto que se puede deteriorar y romper con el tiempo.
For occasional use, use a suitable water hose.
The use of rigid pipes with a non-return valve is recommended for use at a fixed location. This
prevents return flow of the liquid when switching off. (Threaded connection: technical data – p. 19)
- Screw pressure line onto the pressure connection.
- All threaded connections must be sealed with thread sealing tape (e. g. Teflon® tape).
- When using a hose, screw a suitable hose adapter onto the pressure connection.
- Push the hose firmly onto the hose adapter and secure with a hose clamp.
Installation
The appliance needs an area of at least 50 × 50 cm (the float switch must be able to move freely
so that it functions properly).
The appliance can be submerged under water up to the submerged operating depth mentioned
in the technical data.
Install the appliance so that the suction openings cannot be blocked by foreign bodies (place the
appliance on a firm, even base if necessary).
Risk of damage to the appliance!
Do not lift the pump with the cable or pressure hose as these are not designed for the
tensile stress from the weight of the pump.
DANGER!
Ensure that the appliance is stable.
- Submerge the pump at an angle into the liquid to be delivered so that no air pocket forms on the
underside of the appliance. Suction would be prevented by this. Once the pump is submerged, it can be
righted again.
- Leave the pump on the bottom of the liquid container. Use a strong rope attached to the carrying handle
of the pump for lowering.
- Tighten the end of the rope firmly after lowering.
