− Extension cables and power distributors (e.g. outlet strips) must be suitable for outdoor use.
− Ensure that the power connection cable cross section is not smaller than that of the rubber sheath with the identifi-
cation H05RN-F. Extension cables must meet DIN VDE 0620.
− Protect the plug connections from moisture.
− Only plug the unit into a correctly fitted socket.
Safe operation
− Never operate the unit if either the electrical cables or the housing are defective!
− Do not carry or pull the unit by its electrical cable.
− Route all cables such that damage is excluded and nobody can trip over them.
− Never open the unit housing or its attendant components, unless this is explicitly required in the operating instruc-
tions.
− Only use original spare parts and accessories for the unit.
− Never carry out technical modifications to the unit.
− Only have repairs carried out by customer service points authorised by OASE.
− The power connection cables cannot be replaced. When the cable is damaged, the unit or the component needs to
be disposed of.
− Only operate the unit if no persons are in the water!
− Keep the socket and power plug dry.
Important! The unit is equipped with a permanent magnet. The magnetic field may affect the function of pace-
makers.

Installation

Only use the unit in its horizontal position and ensure stable seating on a firm ground downstream of the filter unit,
seen in flow direction. Fastening of the unit to the ground can be facilitated by removing the unit foot towards the rear
by unlocking the engagement lever on the underside of the unit foot (C). For installation, slide the unit body on the unit
foot until it engages.
The unit can be installed submersed (A = filter module) or dry (B = pump chamber). Always position the unit below the
water line to prevent dry running and the intake of air when switching on and operating the unit. Never connect the unit
to a water line. Use the enclosed adapter set to ease tube (6) or hose (7) installation. When fitting the tube, ensure
that the unit is installed without any tension.
Submerged installation (A)
At the pressure socket (2), connect the line returning the water into the pond. When submerged, insert the unit into the
filter module. Ensure that the unit never runs without water flowing through! Maximum installation depth: 4 metres.
Dry installation (B)
Disconnect the power supply first, then secure the unit to prevent unintentional switching on. Remove the contact
protection (3) by turning it counter-clockwise. Do not reach into the pump opening (1). If necessary, fasten the suction
hose using the adapter set provided for tube (6) or hose (7) installation. Connect the suction hose to the suction socket
(1).
Install the unit so that it is not exposed to direct sun radiation (max. 40 ºC).
Start-up
Attention! The pump must never run dry.
Possible consequence: The pump will be destroyed.
Protective measure: Check the water level at regular intervals. Always place the unit below water level.
Attention! Sensitive electrical components.
Possible consequence: The unit will be destroyed.
Protective measure: Do not connect the unit to a dimmable power supply.
This is how to connect the power supply:
Switching on: Connect power plug to the socket. The unit switches on immediately when the power connection is
established.
Switching off: Disconnect the power plug.
