To change function of switch:

To change the function of the switch from sump emptying to sump filling or vice versa,

proceed as follows:-

The counterbalance weight and float assembly must be interchanged. This is done by

manoeuvring both component support clips to the position where easy exit is provided on
the switch lever. Re-assembly is the reversal of this procedure.

ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION

WARNINGS:

The electrical installation must be carried out in accordance with the

current national electrical regulations and installed by a competent

person.

Before starting work on the electrical installation ensure the power

supply is isolated.

The switch and wiring must not be exposed to liquid.

Do not operate switch without terminal box lid correctly fitted.

The F1 switch is suitable for directly switching small output, single phase AC motors

up to 370 watt (0.5 HP), providing the motors are fitted with integral thermal overload
protection. Motors above 370 watt up to 750 watt (1HP) can also be directly switched,
provided the motors are fitted with some means of overload protection and the motor full
load current does not exceed the switch maximum (see technical specification section).

Larger single phase and three phase motors can be controlled by the switch via a

contact starter. The starter should be fitted with hand reset thermal overload protection
and the switch wired in series with the starter coil circuit (see wiring diagram section).

For installations in the United Kingdom, means for disconnection must be incorporated in

the fixed wiring according to the Wiring Regulations.
