2. Screw the hose connection nozzle (3) onto the
pump connection bend (4).
3. Push the hose over the hose connection nozzle
(3) and fasten it with a hose clamp. Or use a screw
connection on the pump connection bend (4) or on
the hose connection nozzle (3).
Attention!
Note that in the case of heavily contaminated water in
which particles that reach the maximum particle size of
30 mm are floating, this can lead to blockages. In such
cases, use a sufficiently large hose in conjunction with
the largest connection option.
Fitting of the float switch (Figs. 1, 3)
1. The float switch (8) can be latched into place
(Figs. 3 and 4) or freely suspended.
2. The freely suspended float switch (8) is used to
prevent the pump from running dry and to prevent
possible damage.
3. The latched in float switch (3) allows pumping
down to 10 mm from ground level.
Attention! Always keep an eye on the pump when
the float switch (8) is latched into place so that you
can switch it off before it runs dry.
Notes:
• Check that the pump is standing stably on the shaft
floor or is securely suspended.
• Check that the hose has been properly attached.
• Ensure that the pump does not run dry (set the float
switch correctly).
• Make sure that the electrical connection is 220 V ~
240 V / 50 Hz.
• Check the proper condition of the mains socket and
that it has an appropriate fuse (min. 6A).
• Insert the pump plug into the mains socket and the
pump is ready for operation.
• Make sure that moisture or water cannot reach the
mains power connection. There is a danger of elec-
tric shock.
9. Start-up
m ATTENTION!
Always make sure the product is fully assembled
before commissioning!
Set-up / suspension
• The pump well should have dimensions of at least 45 x
45 x 45 cm so that the float switch (8) can move freely.
• The product can be suspended by the carrying han-
dle (1) or placed on the shaft floor.
• You can use a rope to hang up and/or pull out the
pump.
• For safe suspension, loop the rope around two of
the grips of the carrying handle (1) and feed it up-
wards through the carrying handle (1).
• Never hang the product by the hose.
• Dip the pump in the liquid to be pumped at a 45 degree
angle initially (to reduce the amount of air trapped in
the pump body). If the pump is resting on the ground,
make sure it is on a flat and stable surface.
• Make sure that there are no people in the liquid to
be pumped.
• Connect the pump to the mains.
Check the function of the float switch
• The float switch (8) is to be set such that immedi-
ate start-up is possible. In the case of stationary in-
stallation, the function of the float switch (8) must be
checked regularly (at least every three months).
• The on or off switching point of the float switch (8)
can be adjusted by changing the position of the float
switch (8) in the float switch clip (7). Please check
the following points before commissioning.
• The float switch (8) must be positioned in such a
way that the switching point height "On" and the
switching point height "Off" can be reached easily
and with little effort.
• Check this by placing the pump in a container filled
with water and carefully lifting the float switch (8) by
hand and then lowering it again. In doing so, you
can see whether the pump switches on or off. Al-
so make sure that the distance between the float
switch head and the float switch clip (7) is not too
small. If the distance is too small, proper functioning
is not guaranteed.
• When adjusting, make sure that the float switch (8)
does not touch the floor before the pump is switched
off. Attention! Danger of dry-running and dam-
age to the product.
10. Electrical connection
The electrical motor installed is connected and ready
for operation. The connection complies with the appli-
cable VDE and DIN provisions.
The customer's mains connection as well as the ex-
tension cable used must also comply with these reg-
ulations.
