PLEASE NOTE!
You should never install the pump by suspending it unsupported from its delivery pipe of power
cable. The submersible motor pump must be suspended from the specially provided handle or be
placed on the bottom of the shaft. To guarantee that the pump works properly, the bottom of the
shaft must be kept free of sludge and dirt of all kinds.
If the level of water sinks too far, any sludge in the shaft will dry out quickly and stop the pump
from starting up. It is necessary therefore to check the submersible motor pump regularly (by
carrying out start-up tests).
The floater is adjusted in a way that the pump can immediately be started.
Note: The pump shaft should have minimum dimensions of 40x40x50cm, so that the floating
switch can move freely.
MAINS SUPPLY
Your new submersible pump is equipped with a shock-proof plug according to regulations. The
pump is designed to be connected to a 230V / 50Hz safely socket. Make sure that the socket is
sufficiently secured (min. 6Amp.) and is in excellent condition. Introduce the plug into the socket
and the pump is ready to go.
Important note: If the mains cable or plug suffer any damage from external action, repairs to the
cable are prohibited. This work may only be performed by a qualified electrician.
AREAS OF USE
This pump is used primarily as cellar pump when installed in a shaft, this pump provides protec-
tion from flooding. They are also used wherever water has to be moved from one place to anoth-
er, e.g. in the home, agriculture, horticulture, plumbing and many other applications.
