Operation; Maintenance; Limited Warranty - AquaForte O-Plus Vario Bedienungsanleitung

Never place the pump in a muddy area or on sandy pond bottoms. Put the pump on a
small pedestal (e.g. a stone). Ignoring these instructions can cause blockage of the strainer
house around the pump. Heavily polluted water will cause problems for the rotor to run
smooth and the pump performance will decrease. In a worst case scenario the rotor will
totally block and the pump will burn out. Complete blockage of the pump strainer house
will prevent motor cooling which can cause burn outs.

Operation:

A clogged or dirty intake screen will greatly reduce performance.
If the pump is used on a dirty surface, raise it slightly to reduce the amount of debris
beginning, it probably can't pump water, because there is air in the pump and the tube.
Don't worry about it. Please pull out and insert electrical outlet several times, it will work
normally.

If the pump fails to operate, check the following:
• Check the outlet and try another outlet to ensure the pump is getting electrical power.

• Check the pump outlet and tubing for kinks and obstructions. Algae may block them,
• Check the inlet to ensure it is not clogged with debris.

• Remove the pump inlet to access the impeller area. Turn the rotor to ensure it is not
broken or jammed.
• Monthly maintenance will prolong your pump's life.
• NOTE: Ensure that the electrical cord loops below the electrical outlet to form a "Drip
Loop". This will prevent water from running down the cord into the electrical outlet.

with commercial de-scaling products or vinegar.
