Ensure that the equipment is not
hung up or held by the mains 
cable. There is a risk of electric 
shock from damaged mains ca-
bles.
Note that, over time, dirt and sand
may collect on the bottom of the 
shaft, which could damage the 
pump. If the water level is too low, 
the silt in the shaft can quickly dry 
out and impede the pump when 
warming up.
Mains Connection
The pump you have purchases is already 
fitted with an earthed plug. The pump is 
intended for connection to an earthed 
socket at 230 V ~ 50Hz. 
Connecting the Pressure Line
The pump is installed
- Either with a fixed pipeline 
- Or with a flexible hose line.

Adjustment of the float switch
The ON and OFF switching point of the float 
switch can be adjusted by changing the posi-
tion of the float switch in the float switch grat-
ing. Please check the following points before 
start of operation.
• The float switch must be attached so
that the switching point ON level and the 
switching point OFF level can be reached 
easily and with little expenditure of en-
ergy. Check this by placing the pump into 
a vessel filled with water and lift the float 
switch carefully by hand and then lower it 
again. In this case, you can see whether 
the pump switches on and off.
• Also ensure that the separation distance
between the float switch head and the
float switch latching mechanism is not 
too small. In the case of a separation 
distance which is too small, trouble-free 
functioning cannot be guaranteed.
• During the adjustment of the float switch,
ensure that the float switch does not con-
tact the floor before the pump switches off. 
Attention! Risk of running dry and dam-
age to the device.
Operational start-up
• Check that the pump is standing
firmly on the bottom of the shaft 
or hung up safely.
• Check whether the pressure line
has been attached correctly and
