Function
The garden pump sucks the liquid to be pumped
into the pump through the suction hose (1) and
pumps it out at the outlet (3).
Use the On/Off switch (6) to switch the garden
pump on or off as desired.
Thermal protection
Your pump is equipped with a thermal protection
switch, which switches the pump off if it over-
heats. The pump will remain off until it has cooled
down. After about 15 - 20 minutes, the pump will
automatically switch on.
Setting up and operating the system
• Place the garden pump onto a hard, flat surface
so that it cannot tip over and so that it will not
be near the flow of water.
• Make sure that the pump is protected from rain
and any direct exposure to water.
Attaching the suction hose
Choose a hose which is long enough so
that the pump will not suck in air and run
dry. The hose should be at least 30 cm
under the surface of the liquid to be
pumped while the pump is in operation.
• Attach the suction hose. Make sure to
screw it in tightly, but take care not to
damage the threads.
If the liquid to be pumped is deeper than 4
m, you should use a suction hose which is
larger than 1" in diametre for the best
performance. We recommend our AL-KO
suction set (12), which consists of a
suction hose, strainer and non-return
valve. The suction set is available at your
local retailer's.
Before pumping sandy water, you must
insert a filter (13) between the suction
hose and the pump inlet or you will dam-
age your garden pump. The filter is avail-
able at your local retailer's.
• When laying the suction hose, make
sure that it is lower than the pump.
If the suction hose is laid so that it is
higher than the pump, bubbles will be-
come trapped in the line and the pump
will suck air.
• Fill the suction hose
Attaching the pressure hose
• Screw the threaded connector (11) into the
pump outlet (3).
• Attach the elbow nipple (10) to the connector
and turn the nipple so that it points in the de-
sired direction.
• Attach a hose to the elbow nipple. The nipple
can be cut to fit the size of the hose used.
• Clear the pressure line (open valves, sprayers,
etc.).
