Unpacking

• Open the packaging and carefully remove the de-
vice.
• Remove the packaging material, as well as the pack-
aging and transport safety devices (if present).
• Check whether the scope of delivery is complete.
• Check the device and accessory parts for transport
damage. In the event of complaints the carrier must
be informed immediately. Later claims will not be
recognised.
• If possible, keep the packaging until the expiry of the
warranty period.
• Familiarise yourself with the device by means of the
operating manual before using for the first time.
• With accessories as well as wearing parts and re-
placement parts use only original parts. Spare parts
can be obtained from your specialist dealer.
• When ordering please provide our article number as
well as type and year of manufacture for your equip-
ment.
m WARNING!
The device and the packaging material are not
children's toys! Do not let children play with plas-
tic bags, films or small parts! There is a danger of
choking or suffocating!
8. Before commissioning & installation
• Prior to commissioning, all covers and safety devic-
es must be mounted correctly.
• Before connecting the machine, make certain that
the data on the type plate matches with the mains
power data.
Note:
A 1-inch internal thread serves as the connection for
the suction and pressure connection at the factory.
Additional connection system (such as tap piece, hose
clamp, bayonet fitting) is required for installation and is
not included in the scope of delivery.
8.1 Installation of a suction line (Fig. 1+2)
1. Remove the sealing cap (3a) on the suction connec-
tion (3). Keep the sealing cap (3a) in a safe place!
2. Connect the suction hose to the suction connec-
tion (3) by screwing it into the thread.
3. Lay the suction line rising from the water pick-up
point to the garden pump.

Notes:
• Please do not lay the suction line above the pump
height. Air bubbles in the suction line will delay and
prevent the suction process.
• Attach the suction and pressure lines so as to avoid
mechanical pressure on the garden pump.
• Place the suction line deep enough in the water to
prevent the garden pump from running dry due to the
water level sinking.
• Check the suction hose for leaks, to avoid sucking
air.
• Avoid sucking in foreign bodies (sand etc.).
8.2 Filling the garden pump with water (Fig. 3)
To reduce the start-up time of the garden pump and
to prevent air from being sucked in, the garden pump
must be filled with water beforehand!
1. The suction line should already be fitted for this
purpose to prevent water from flowing out of the
suction connection (3).
2. Fill the garden pump with water via the opening
of the pressure connection (1). Alternatively, water
can be poured in through the opening of the filler
plug (2). Approx. 2.5 litres of water are required.
3. Tilt the garden pump slightly in between to avoid
air pockets.
4. Now, attach the pressure line as described in the
next point.
8.3 Installation of a pressure line (Fig. 4)
1. Remove the sealing cap (1a) on the pressure con-
nection (1). Keep the sealing cap (1a) in a safe place!
2. Screw the hose adapter onto the pressure connec-
tion (1).
3. Then connect the end of the garden hose with the
quick coupling to the hose adapter.
4. During the suction process, the consumers pres-
ent in the pressure line (e.g. syringe, shower, toilet
flush, etc.) must be completely opened so that the
air present in the suction line can escape freely.

Operation

m Attention!
Always make sure the product is fully assembled be-
fore commissioning!
m NOTE!
The garden pump must be absolutely leak-proof at the
inlet and outlet. Therefore, regardless of your chosen
connection, use a Teflon or any other sealing tape.
