− 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.

Installation

Only use the unit in its horizontal position and ensure stable seating on a firm ground. The unit must be positioned
below the water surface level. The unit can be placed within the pond (submersed) or outside of the pond (dry). Please
note the installation examples (A and B). Do not carry or pull the unit using the connection cable. Ensure that the unit
will never run without water flowing through!
To fit the suction hose with the unit installed outside of the pond (dry), remove the two strainer cheeks by unscrewing
the screws, then remove the front plate of the strainer.
For replacement, the support foot (C) can be removed by releasing the locking lever (D) at the underside of the support
foot and pulling it to the rear. To install the support foot, push the pump body onto the foot until it engages (E).
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! The unit is heavy.
Possible consequence: Lifting and carrying the unit could put considerable strain on your cardiovascular
and musculoskeletal system.
Protective measure: Only lift and carry the unit with the help of a second person.
Install the unit so that it is not exposed to direct sun radiation (max. 40 ºC).
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.
Immerse the unit in water for approx. 1 hour prior to switching it on for the first time. Following this, operate the unit for
10 minutes against an almost fully closed pressure socket. Following this, you can fit the nozzle and arrange the
fountain system.
The pump power can only be controlled by an OASE current management unit.
