A Hazard by ambient conditions! Do not expose to rain. Do not operate in damp or wet environment. Do not direct water jet directly against the equipment or other electrical parts! Risk of fatal electric shock! Do not use the pump in hazardous locations or near inflammable liquids and gases! B Danger! Risk of electric shock! Always unplug before servicing. Do not touch the plug with wet hands! To unplug always pull on the plug, not the power cable. Do not buckle, squeeze, drag or drive over power cable and extension cables; protect from sharp edges. A Danger by pump failings! Before each use check the equipment, especially the power cable, plug and electrical parts for possible damage. Risk of fatal electric shock! A damaged pump must be workmanlike repaired before it can be used again. Do not attempt to repair the equipment yourself! Only trained specialists are permitted to service or repair pumps. 5. Prior to Operation The equipment is easily assembled and connected. If in doubt, contact your specialist supplier or qualified electrician. 5.1 Installation • The equipment must be placed on a plane and level surface, suitable of bearing the weight of the equipment fully filled with water. • To prevent vibrations, the equipment should not be fastened with screws but placed onto an elastic base. • The installation location should be well vented and protected from atmospheric exposure. • When operated at garden ponds and pools the equipment must be set up safe against flooding and protected from falling into the water. Any additional legal requirements are to be observed. 5.2 Suction line connection 3 3 Note: Possibly further accessories may be required for connection (see "Available Accessories"). A A Caution! The suction line needs to be installed in such manner that it does not exert mechanical force or distortion to the pump. A A Caution! When pumping contaminated fluids install a suction strainer to protect the pump from sand and dirt. ENGLISH 3 3 Note: A check valve is recommended to prevent water backflow when the pump is switched off. • All screw fittings need to be sealed with thread sealing tape; leakage places cause the priming of air and reduce or prevent the priming of water. • The suction line should have at least 1" (25 mm) inner diameter; it must be non-buckling and vacuum-proof. • Keep suction line as short as practical, since with increasing length the pump capacity is reduced. • The suction line should raise towards the pump to prevent air locks. • A sufficient water supply must be ensured, the foot valve at the end of the suction line must be submerged in water at all times. 5.3 Discharge hose connection 3 3 Note: Possibly further accessories may be required for connection (see "Available Accessories"). A A Caution! The discharge (or pressure) line needs to be installed in such manner that it does not exert mechanical force or distortion to the pump. • All screw fittings should be sealed with thread sealing tape to prevent leakage. • All parts of the pressure line must be resistant to internal pressure. • All parts of the pressure line must be installed in a workmanlike manner. A A Danger! Improper installation and use of parts not resistant to internal pressure can cause the pressure line to break during operation. Risk of personal injury by liquid spurting from the line under high pressure! 5.4 Mains connection B B Danger! Risk of electric shock! Do not operate the equipment in wet environment and only under the following conditions: • Connect only to an earthed outlet that is properly installed, earthed and tested. • Mains voltage and fuse protection must correspond to those stated in the "Technical Specications". • When operated at pools, garden ponds and similar locations, the equipment must be protected by a residual current operated device (RCD, 30 mA) (DIN VDE 0100 -702, -738 or equivalent applicable local regulations). We recommend the use of RCD's as a general precaution for personal protection. • When operated outdoors the electrical connections must be splash-proof; they must not be placed in water. • Use only extension cables of sufficient lead cross section (see "Technical Specifications"). Unroll cable reels fully. 5.5 Filling the pump and priming A A Caution! After installation, loss of water or priming of air the pump needs to be filled with water. Starting the pump without water causes damage! 3 3 Note: The suction line does not need to be filled, the pump is self-priming. However, depending on length and diameter of the suction line it may take some time until pressure has built up. 1. Remove the water filler plug, complete with gasket. 2. Slowly pour in clear water, until the pump is filled. 3. To reduce the time needed for priming you can also fill the suction line. 4. Replace the water filler plug, complete with gasket. 5. Open pressure line (open tap or spray nozzle) for any air to escape during priming. 6. Start equipment (see "Operation"). 7. Switch equipment OFF whe...
