NOTE: When power is switched on, the pump will activate immediately.
Overheating
Should the pump overheat, it will automatically cut out. •
Once the thermal overload switch has cooled down (after approx. 10 •
mins), it will reset and automatically switch on.
The possible cause may be due to an obstruction.
•
De-aeration
The pump is equipped with an automatic de-aeration device that will •
remove air locks that could form in the pump.
If the pump is allowed to draw off water to the bottom of the unit, the
•
pump will have sucked in air, affecting its performance until it is able to
de-aerate.
Should this oocur, disconnect the pump from the mains power.
•
The de-aeration process will only be possible once the water level has •
risen above the bottom of the pump i.e. when it is no longer able to
suck in air.
The power needs to remain off for a minimum of one minute, then it can
•
be reconnected, when the pump will automatically de-aerate.
Maintenance

The following is the only maintenance that should be carried out by the
end user:
If the pump is dismantled to any degree other than as described below, •

this work.
In the event that the suction base (3) becomes blocked, remove the 4 •
crosshead screws from the suction base that will release the base from
the body of the pump.

chlorinated water or any liquid with residues, the pump should be rinsed
after use with clean water.
