Electricalsafety:
 Caution:toavoidaccidentsand
injuriesfromelectricshocks:
• Aftererection,themainsplugmustbe
freelyaccessiblewhentheequipment
isinoperation.
• Ensurethatthemainsvoltagematches
thespecicationsontheratingplate.
• Thedevicemustonlybeconnectedto
amainssocketviaaresidual-current
circuitbreaker(RCD)witharatedleak-
agecurrentofnotmorethan30mA;
minimumfuse10amperes.
• Beforeeachuse,checkthepowersup-
plyleadandtheextensioncablefor
damageandageing.Donotusethe
equipmentifthecableisdamagedor
worn.
• Ifthepowercableforthisequipment
isdamaged,itmustbereplacedby
themanufacturer,acustomerservice
agentofthesameorasimilarlyquali-

Putting into service
Installing the aluminium tubes
 Beforeinstallingthealuminium
tubesandtheexibletube,check
thatasealingringhasbeenin-
sertedineachscrewsocket.Ifnot,
insertthesealingringinthefollow-
ingmanner:
Insertingthesealingrings:
 1. Press:
- Onesmallsealingring(22)into
eachofthethreadedsleeves
inthethreealuminiumtubes.
(13/14/15),
- Onelargesealingring(23)
intothethreadedsleeveon
theexibletube(19).
  Screwingtogetherthealumini-
umtubes:
 2. Screwtogetherthetubesinthe
followingorder:
- Bottomaluminium
tube(13)(without
rib),
- Middlealuminium
tube(14)(with1rib),
- Aluminiumtube
withplastichook
(15)(with2ribs),
- Flexibletube(19).
 3. Mountthetubesontothepump
(11)pressureconnection.
  Securingthemainscable:
 4. Securethemainsconnectionca-
ble(12)tothecableclamp(20)
ontheplastichook(21)andon
themiddlealuminiumtube(14).
  Mountingtheheightadjust-
mentfortheoatswitch:
 5. Loosenthescrewontheoat
switchheightadjustment(2)and
pushthisovertheoatswitch
guide(6).Thenguidetheoat
switchcable(4)upwards(see
also“Adjustingtheoatswitch”).
 Ifyouwanttomakeuseofthe
maximumpumpingcapacityofthe
pumpratherthanthemaximum
dischargeheight,werecommend
thatyouta¾“connectingtube,
mountingitdirectlyonthepump,
withoutaluminiumtubeorshut-off
tap.Thelargercross-sectionofthe
hosewillenableagreatervolume
ofwatertobepumped.Atthesame
time,thepotentialdischargeheight
willbecorrespondinglylower.
Submerging the pump
 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thecourseoftime
dirtandsandwhichmaydamage
thepumpwillcollectinthebottom
ofthebutt.
• Usetheplastichook( 21)forsub-
mergingorliftingoutthepumporxa

GB IE
cordtothepumpcarryinghandle( 1).
 Donothangtheequipmentdirectly
bythecurvedtubeoronthewater
hose.
• Youcanadjusttheheightoftheplastic
hookafterlooseningtheheight-adjust-
mentscrew( 16).
• Whenthewaterlevelislow,youcan
alsoplacethepumpinthebutt.Ifyou
do,theshut-offtapmustbeabovethe
leveloftheedgeofthecontainer.
Power supply connection
Therainbarrelpumpyouhaveacquired
isalreadyttedwithahomeofce
(safety)plug.Thepumpisintendedtobe
pluggedintoahomeofcesocketwitha
230V~50Hzsupply.
Switching on and off
1. Insertthepluginthesocket.The
pumpstartsworkingimmediately.
2. Opentheshut-offtap
( 18).
3. Toswitchoff,withdrawtheplugfrom
thesocket.Thepumpstops.
 Ifthewaterlevelistoolow,the
oat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.
Adjusting the oat switch
Automaticmode:
Theonoroffswitchingpointontheoat
switch( 5)canbecontinuouslyad-
justed.
 Loosenthescrewontheoat
switchheightadjustment(2)and
bringitintotherequiredposition
(arrow hastoshowupwards).
 Checktheoatswitch(5).Itmust
bepositionedsothatitcanliftand
lowerfreely.Theswitchingpoint
heights“On”and“Off”mustbe
easytoreach.
Manualmode:
Thepumprunscontinuouslyinmanual
mode.
 Positiontheoatswitch(5)as
shown.
Cleaning and storage
Cleanandserviceyourapplianceona
regularbasis.Thiswillguaranteeitsopti-
mumperformanceandalongservicelife.
 Askourservicecentretocarryout
anyworkthatisnotdescribedin
theseinstructions.Useonlyorigi-
nalparts.
 Pulloutthepowerplugbeforeevery
maintenanceoperation.Thereisa
riskofelectrocutionorofinjuryfrom
movingparts.
General cleaning work
• Cleanthepumpaftereveryusewith
cleanwater.
• Removeufforparticlesofbre,which
mayhavefoundtheirwayintothepump

housingandbecomestuck,byusinga
jetofwater.
• Cleananydepositsadheringtothe
oatingswitch( 5)withcleanwater.
Cleaning the lter
Inthesuctionfoot,thepumphasaremov-
ablelter,designedtoprotectitfromdirt.
Accordingtothelevelofdirtinthewater,
thisshouldfromtimetotimebechecked
andcleanedwhennecessary.
1. Unplugtheappliancefromthe
powersupply.
 2. Removethevescrewsontheun-
derneathofthepumphousing(9).
 3. Takethesuctionfoot(8)offthe
pumpandtakeoutthelter(7).
 4. Washthelter(7)underrunning
waterandputitbackinplace.
 5. Putthesuctionfoot(8)backon
thepumpandfastenitwiththe
vescrews.
Cleaning the impeller wheel
Ifdepositsinthepumphousingbecome
tooheavy,thebottompartofthepump
mustbedismantledasfollows.
1. Removethe5screwsonthebottomof
thepumpcasingandpulloffthesuc-
tionfoot( 8).
2. Unscrewthepaddlewheelcover( 
24)(6screws).
3. Cleantheinsidewallofthepump
housingandtheimpellerwheelwith
clearwater.
4. Forre-assembly,followthesame
stepsinreverse.
Storage
• Storetheapplianceinadry,frost-free
place,andwherechildrencannotgain
accesstoit.
• Whenthepumpisnottobeusedfor
alongerperiod,itmustbethoroughly
cleanedafteritslastuse,andbeforeit
isnextused.Otherwisetheremaybe
problemsinstartingthepump,caused
bydepositsandresidues.
 - Windthemainscable(12)
