For safety reasons, this appliance can be
used by children aged from 8 years and
above and persons with reduced physi-
cal, sensory or mental capabilities or lack
of experience and knowledge if they have been
given supervision or instruction concerning use

1 - SAFETY MEASURES
READ CAREFULLY BEFORE USE
The user is responsible to third parties for all matters
resulting from use of the pump (electrical, water ins-
tallation, etc.) In France, comply with standard NF
C15-100 of 07/00 which governs low voltage electrical
installations.. In other countries, comply with local
regulations.
It is therefore recommended that before you use the
pump, you have an experienced electrician check that
the safety devices required in the electrical system
are present.
The characteristics shown on the pump's name plate
must correspond to those of the electrical system.
For safety reasons, the electrical network which sup-
plies the pump must be fitted with a residual current
circuit breaker and earthed sockets.
If the pump is used in a garden pond or similar fea-
ture, the electrical system must be fitted with a resi-
dual current device (RCD) having a rated residual
operating current not exceeding 30 mA.
If you use an extension lead, it must be type H05
RNF with an identical cross-section to the pump's
mains cable and with a water-proof socket.
Never carry the pump by the mains cable (C)
or float (B) but by the carry handle (P).
This pump is designed for prolonged use; however it
is recommended that you do not use it for longer than
2 hours without switching it off and allowing it to cool.
Do not make any changes to the pump.
Do not modify or attempt to access the
pump in any way.
If the appliance or the supply cord is damaged, it
must be repaired by manufacturer, its service agent
or qualified person.
Our warranty excludes normal wear and tear on the
equipment or accidents resulting from its improper or
abnormal use or due to the pump being modified or
changes made to the electrical part.
Failure to follow these instructions may
expose the user to risks, including electro-
cution.
2 - AREAS OF USE
Hozelock rainwater recovery pumps are intended for
private, domestic use. They allow particle-free water
to be drawn and supplied under pressure to garden
attachments (watering system, spray lance, etc.).
Current standards state that the use of submersible
pumps in swimming pools is prohibited.
The temperature of the water drawn must not exceed
35°C.
THIS PUMP MUST NOT BE RUN DRY.
Important: this pump is not suitable for
evacuating salt water, corrosive products,
inflammable, explosive or or foodstuffs.
Do not dispose of electrical appliances as
unsorted municipal waste, use separate
collection facilities. Contact you local go-
vernment for information regarding the
collection systems available.
If electrical appliances are disposed of in landfills or
dumps, hazardous substances can leak into the
groundwater and get into the food chain, damaging
your health and well-being.
When replacing old appliances with new ones, the
retailer is legally obligated to take back your old ap-
pliance for disposals at least free of charge.
The pump's packaging is 80% recyclable.
The appliance and its accessories contain
materials (including plastics) that can be
recycled.

I - Removable base
5 - PREPARATION – USING FOR THE FIRST TIME
- Connecting the discharge hose
Screw on the tap connector (G) (fig.2).
Connect any compatible standard connector.
- Adjusting the float:
To operate correctly, the float should not be
left completely free; it should be placed in the
adjustable cable clamp. Otherwise, it is
possible that the pump would not stop if there was no
water, thus causing a risk of overheating that could
cause injury to the user.
You can adjust the float (fig.2) to vary the trigger level
to start and stop the pump (illustration fig.3) by adjus-
ting the free length of cable (pressing into the cable
clamp D).
Note: in order to ensure that the float ope-
rates correctly, at least 10 cm of cable must
be left between the base of the float plug and
the fixing on the body of the pump.
- Installation: (fig.3)
Lower the pump on a line fixed to the carry handle (F)
and position it, checking that the float has sufficient
space to move freely.
Check that the float has sufficient space to move
freely.
- Switching on:
Ensure that nothing prevents water from being dis-
charged by the pump (e.g. kink in the pipe). Connect
the pump to the electrical supply.
The pump will start automatically once the required
water level has been reached (float in the high posi-
tion) and stops when the water level is sufficiently low
(float in low position), according to the float setting
made previously and the depth of immersion.
The pump is not intended for continuous use or for
dry running. In such a situation the pump could over-
heat and could injury the person using it.
Do not leave unattended.

6 - CARE AND STORAGE
Disconnect the pump before doing carrying out any
maintenance on it.
To clean out any dirt from the pump's suction cham-
ber, undo the removable base (I, fig.4) to access the
filter. Clean the filter with clean water and then re-
assemble.
Keep the pump in a frost-free location.
Incidents Causes Solution
a- The pump does
not start.
1- The water level has not reached
the pump's trigger level.
2- The float (B) cannot move freely.
3- The float (B) is not working.
4- No power
5- There is dirt trapped in the turbine
housing.
1- You could adjust the float (C) to lower the
pump's trigger level.
2 - Re-position the pump so that the float
has sufficient room to move freely.
3 - Check the float manually by lifting it up.
4 - Check that the plug is properly inserted
in the socket. Check the circuit breakers and
electrical connections external to the pump.
Check the condition of the cables.
5 - Disconnect the pump and clean the filter
(see "Care and storage").
b- No water flow
or reduced flow
1- The filter is blocked with dirt.
2- The discharge pipe is blocked.
3- An air lock has occurred:
- Due to the float being incorrectly
adjusted, the stop level is too low
and the pump is sucking air.
- Before lowering the pump.
1- Disconnect it and rinse the filter (see
paragraph 7).
2 - Remove the discharge pipe and unblock
it.
3 - Adjust the float so that the stop level is
above the suction grille.
- Open the discharge pipe (or remove any
item obstructing the air outlet) and then
lower the pump, while tilting it and shaking it.
- Check that the water level is sufficient to
start suction.
c - The pump
stops during
operation (the
thermal circuit
breaker has
stopped the pump
due to over-
heating).
1 - The power supply is not compa-
tible with the pump motor.
2 - A solid body is blocking the hy-
draulic installation.
3 - The pump has been used with
water that is too hot.
4- The pump has been running dry.
5 - The pump has been running for
too long without a break.
Disconnect the pump, eliminate the cause of
the overheating, wait for the pump to cool
and then connect it again.
7 - OPERATING PROBLEMS / SOLUTIONS
For any other problem contact our after-sales department. For safety reasons, only Hozelock personnel
should disassemble the pump.
