IV. GETTING STARTED
Before any intervention on product, ensure that product is disconnected from its power source.
4.1- Unpacking
Remove product from its packaging.
Check that product and accessories are not damage
4.2- Connecting the evacuation hose
1. Screw the universal fitting (connector) (7) provided onto the pump outlet elbow (Fig.1).
2. Wedge the discharge hose on to the connection section corresponding to the internal diameter of
the hose (Fig.3).
3. Add a fixing collar (hose clamp not supplied) to complete the seal.
Note for 400W pump only: For large diameter hoses and to obtain the optimum discharge output, it
will be necessary to cut the end of the universal fitting (7) to only keep the section suitable for the
hose used.

4.3- Adjusting the floating switch
1. The float switch (5) enables the automatic start of the pump.
When the water rises to reach approximately 50cm, the pump starts up.
When water level has lowered to approximately 5cm, the pump will stop automatically.
2. By shortening the length of the cable between the pump and the float, it is possible to modify the
water heights that trigger starting and stopping of the pump.
3. To adjust the cut-in/cut-out height, fix the float switch cable to the float switch lock (3) provided
for this purpose, located at the top of the pump.
4. Adjust the cable to the required length
4.4- Start-up
Note: Before use, clear the outlet line
Observe and respect minimum water level and max delivery height
1. The pump must be in a vertical position: ensure that it is stable during operation.
2. Ensure that the float switch can move freely.
3. The suction holes must never be obstructed. It is therefore preferable that the pump should never be
placed directly on the ground or on the bottom of the well, pond or vessel.
For example, use a brick to support the pump.
Warning: to dry out premises (cellar draining for example) it will be necessary to place the pump
below floor level.
