tion (particularly in residential spaces,
in order to detect automatic switching
off or dry running of the pumps in time.
Regularly check the function of the float
switch (see chapter "initial operation").
Non-observance will invalidate all guar-
antee and liability claims.
• Please note that the pump is not suitable
for continuous operation (e.g. for wa-
tercourses in garden ponds). Check the
equipment regularly for correct function-
ing.
• Note that the lubricants used in the
equipment may cause damage or con-
tamination if they escape. Do not use
the pump in garden ponds with fish
stocks or valuable plants.
• Do not carry or fix the equipment by the
cable or pressure line.
• Protect the equipment from frost and
from running dry.
• Use only original accessories and do not
carry out conversion work on the equip-
ment.
• Please read the notes in the operating
instructions on the topic of "maintenance
and cleaning". Any measures above
and beyond these, particularly opening
the equipment, are to be carried out by
an electrician. In the case of repairs,
always contact our service centre.

Electrical safety:

Caution: to avoid accidents and inju-
ries from electric shocks:
• The equipment is not to be operated if
there are people in the water. There is a
risk of electric shock.
• After erection, the mains plug must be
freely accessible when the equipment is
in operation.
• Before operating your new pump, have
8
a specialist check:
- The earthing, the protective multiple
earthing; the residual current circuit
breaking must be compliant with
the safety regulations of the energy
supply company and function with-
out fault,
- The protection of the electrical plug
connections from the wet.
• If there is a risk of flooding, fix the
plug connections in an area that is safe
from flooding.
• Ensure that the mains voltage matches
the specifications on the rating plate.
• The electrical installation shall be ac-
cording to national wiring rules.
• Before each use, check the equipment,
cable and plug for damage. Defec-
tive cables are not to be repaired, but
rather replaced by new ones. Have
damage on your equipment repaired
by an authorised specialist.
• Do not pull the plug from the socket by
the cable. Protect the cable from heat,
oil and sharp edges.
• Do not carry or fix the equipment by
the cable.
• Use only extension cables that are pro-
tected from spray water and designed
for outdoor use. Always fully unroll a
cable drum before use. Check the ca-
ble for damage.
• Disconnect the mains plug from the
socket before all work on the equip-
ment, in case of leaks in the water
system, during work breaks, and when
not in use.
• The cross-section of mains connection
lines must be no smaller than rub-
ber hose lines with the designation
H05RN8-F. The line must be 10 m
long. The flexible lead cross-section
of the extension cord must at least
2.5 mm .
