Preparing for use / Maintenance and cleaning
Standing up or suspending
the device
Note: The pump chamber should have minimum
dimensions of 40 x 40 x 50 cm (W x D x H) to al-
low the float switch

Suspend the device from the handle
stand it on the bottom or supporting surface.
Otherwise damage to the device could occur.
Note: You can suspend the pump safely using
the supplied rope

the handle
and fasten it with a double knot.

ATTENTION! Never suspend
the device from the hose. Otherwise damage
to the device could occur.
ATTENTION! Check the state
of the device occasionally while it is working.
Dirt and sand may build up over time on the
bottom or supporting surface, which could
damage the pump. If the water level in the
chamber is too low, any sludge present could
quickly dry out and prevent the pump from
starting.
Note: The submersible pump has an automatic
air bleed mechanism
any air to escape from the device as soon as
the device is submerged in water. If the sub-
mersible pump is not completely submerged in
water during operation, then water may escape
from the air bleed mechanism
indicate that the device is defective.
ATTENTION! Do not screw off the air bleed
mechanism , otherwise damage to the de-

vice may occur.
Connecting the discharge
hose or pipe
Note: The water can be pumped out through a
fixed pipe or a flexible hose.
The hose may block if the particle size is greater
than 35 mm, or 19 mm with the reducer fitted, (see
the section on "Maintenance and cleaning").
Screw the angle adapter
outlet (see Fig. B).

Attaching the float switch

Note: The float switch
8
to be used immediately. In the case of a permanent
installation, the float switch
regularly (at least every three months) to see that it
is working properly.
The on and off switching point of the float switch
can be set by altering the position of the float switch
in the float switch pivot clip

The following principles apply here: The longer the
length of the cable of the float switch
float switch pivot clip

on and off switching point will be.
Position the float switch
and "OFF" switch point level is achieved easily
and with little force.
Check that it is working properly i.e. stand the
pump in water in a vessel, then carefully raise
the float switch
8
again. Check that the pump switches on and off.
To bring the submersible pump into use, plug
the mains plug into a suitable mains socket.
Depending on the set switch point level and
the water level, the float switch
automatically on or off as appropriate.
Note: Ensure that the distance between the float
switch head and the float switch pivot clip
not too short. If the distance is too short, the
switch may not work properly.
ATTENTION! When making the setting ensure
that float switch

with the bottom or supporting surface before the
pump switches off. Otherwise there is the risk that
the pump may run dry and become damaged.

RISK OF LOSS OF LIFE AND
INJURY! Before you carry out any work on the
device, always pull the mains plug out of the mains
