T.I.P. EXTREMA 700/16-3 IX Original-Gebrauchsanweisung Seite 14

Observing the conditions of use and the ranges of application of the present device will reduce the risk of possible
operational malfunction and contribute to extend the lifetime of your unit. Sand and other abrasive matters
contained in the liquid discharged will speed up the process of wearing and tearing and accelerate the drop in
performance. If the unit is operated properly, it will not require any maintenance.
Where applicable, you may clean the hydraulic part from sediments and dirt. This can be done by counter-flushing
the unit with clear water using a hose to be connected through the pressure port of the pump. To remove
tenacious dirt, the foot of the pump (8) can be removed by loosening the screws located at the bottom of the
pump. To avoid any hazard, any further disassembly as well as the replacement of parts must only be done by
the manufacturer or a by an authorised service provider.
Water left in the pump may freeze in case of frost and thus cause considerable damage. Therefore, the pump
must be removed from the liquid being discharged and fully drained when temperatures are below the freezing
point of the liquid. Please store the pump in a dry, frost-protected place. In the case of malfunction, you should
first of all check whether it was caused by an operating error or some other reason which cannot be attributed to a
defect of the device - for instance a power failure. The list below shows some possible malfunctions of the device,
possible causes and tips on their elimination. All the measures referred to may only be carried out with the pump
being separated from the electrical mains. If you yourself feel unable to eliminate any of these malfunctions,
please contact the customer service department or your point of sales. Any repair beyond the scope specified
below must only be performed by qualified staff. Please bear in mind that all warranty claims will become void in
the case of damage caused by inappropriate repair attempts, and that we decline any liability for any ensuing
damage.
