Working
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.
In automatic mode, the float switch auto-
matically switches the pump on or off.
Adjusting the float switch:
The on/off switch point on the float switch
( 6) can be adjusted by changing the
position of the float switch in the float
switch grid ( 8).
In the case of stationary installation,
check regularly (no less then once
every three months) that the float
switch ( 6 ) is working.
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.
Check this by placing the pump
into a vessel filled with water
and lift the float switch (6) care-
fully by hand and then lower it
again. In this case, you can see
whether the pump switches on
and off.
- Ensure that the distance between
the float switch and the float switch
grid ( 8) is not too small.
- During the adjustment of the float
switch (6), ensure that the float
switch does not contact the floor
before the pump switches off.
The pump will run dry if too long a
float switch cable ( 7) is chosen.
