Placing The Waste Water Pump; Initial Operation - Renkforce 2302384 Bedienungsanleitung

7. Placing the waste water pump

• Attach a sufficiently strong, waterproof rope to the carrying handle (2) to lower the waste water pump e.g. into the
well.
The waste water pump must never be held or attached via the power cord or float switch! Otherwise the
power cord may get damaged, risk of an electric shock! The waste water pump must also not be attached
using the hose.
Fix the rope to a suitable bracket.
• To connect the hose to the waste water pump, you can use the supplied L-shaped pipe section (4) and the hose
connection (3).
Make sure that the diameter of the hose used and the connections required are designed for such contami-
nation.
• There is a cable holder (8) on the side of the carrying handle (2). It serves to fix the cable to the float switch.
The position in which the float switch cable is fixed is later used to determine the corresponding switch-on or
switch-off water level.
Set the correct cable length for your application so that the float switch switches the waste water pump on and off
as required.

8. Initial operation

• After you have lowered the waste water pump on a rope into the well or the like and fastened the rope accordingly,
insert the mains plug into a proper mains socket with a protective earth contact. For outdoor operation, it must be
an IP44 mains socket.
The mains plug may be plugged into the mains socket only when it is dry. Otherwise there is a risk of a fatal
electric shock!
• If the float switch is correctly positioned, the waste water pump will turn on and begin to suck in water and pump it
through the outlet opening.
If water is not pumped, there is still air in the waste water pump and in the hose. You can accelerate the suction
process if you move the waste water pump back and forth a bit or insert/remove the mains plug.
• The waste water pump turns off automatically when the float switch drops down.
The waste water pump can also be operated manually by fixing the float switch to the cable holder of the
waste water pump or by placing it in a higher position.
However, the waste water pump must not be operated unsupervised, because it does not turn off if there is
no water in it and can thus sustain damage.
