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.

Operational start-up

• Check that the float switch is

working (see chapter: “Opera-

tion – Automatic mode“).

• Check that the pump is resting

on the pit base

• Check that the pressure line has

been attached properly

• Check the proper status of the

electrical plug socket and make

sure that the plug socket is suf-

ficiently fused (at least 6 A). In-

sert the pump plug into the plug

socket and the pump is ready

for operation.

• Make sure that moisture or wa-

ter never come in contact with

the mains connection.There is a

risk of electrocution.

Operation

Mains connection

The immersion pump acquired by you is

already provided with an grounded plug.

The pump is designed for connection to

an grounded socket with 230V ~50Hz.

Only start to operate the device

after all the above conditions have

been observed.

Switching on and off

1. Insert the plug in the socket. The

pump starts working immediately.

2. To switch off, withdraw the plug from

the socket. The pump stops.

If the water level is too low, the

float switch will automatically

switch off the pump.

Supervise the appliance while it is

in operation in order to be immedi-

ately aware if the automatic cut-out

operates or the pump runs dry, to

limit any damage to a minimum.

Automatic mode

In automatic mode, the float switch auto-

matically switches the pump on or off.

In the case of stationary installa-

tion, check regularly (no less then

once every three months) that the

float switch (10) is working.

The On/Off switch point of the float switch

(6) is infinitely variable:

Loosen the screw in the float

switch height adjustment (5) and

move it to the desired position.

Check the float switch (6).

- It must be positioned so that

it can lift and lower freely. The

switching point heights “On” and

“Off” must be easy to reach.
