1. SAFETY
1.1. ELECTRICAL SAFETY
WARNING! It is the user’s responsibility to check the following:
Check all electrical equipment and appliances to ensure that they are safe before using. Inspect power supply leads, plugs and all
electrical connections for wear and damage. Sealey recommend that an RCD (Residual Current Device) is used with all electrical
products. You may obtain an RCD by contacting your local Sealey dealer.
if the pump is used in the course of business duties, it must be maintained in a safe condition and routinely PAT (Portable Appliance
Test) tested.
Electrical safety information, it is important that the following information is read and understood.
1.2. Ensure that the insulation on all cables and on the appliance is safe before connecting it to the power supply.
1.3. Regularly inspect power supply cables and plugs for wear or damage and check all connections to ensure that they are secure.
1.4. Important: Ensure that the voltage rating on the appliance suits the power supply to be used and that the plug is tted with the correct
fuse - see fuse rating in these instructions.
8DO NOT pull or carry the appliance by the power cable.
8DO NOT pull the plug from the socket by the cable.
8DO NOT use worn or damaged cables, plugs or connectors. Ensure that any faulty item is repaired or
replaced immediately by a qualied electrician.
1.5. This product is tted with a BS1363/A 13 Amp 3 pin plug.
If the cable or plug is damaged during use, switch the electricity supply and remove from use.
Ensure that repairs are carried out by a qualied electrician.
Replace a damaged plug with a BS1363/A 13 Amp 3 pin plug. If in doubt contact a qualied electrician.
a) Connect the GREEN/YELLOW earth wire to the earth terminal ‘E’.
b) Connect the BROWN live wire to the live terminal ‘L’.
c) Connect the BLUE neutral wire to the neutral terminal ‘N’.
Ensure that the cable outer sheath extends inside the cable restraint and that the restraint is tight.

1.6. GENERAL SAFETY
WARNING! Pump must be used in accordance with Health & Safety, government, local authority and water authority rules and
regulations.
9Familiarise yourself with the application, limitations and potential hazards peculiar to the pump.
WARNING! Disconnect the pump from the mains power before servicing or performing any maintenance.
9Maintain the pump in good condition (use an authorised service agent). Keep the pump clean.
9Replace or repair damaged parts. Use genuine parts only. Unauthorised parts may be dangerous and will invalidate the warranty.
9Only use for pumping cold or warm water (NOT exceeding 35°C).
9If used in situations of possible flooding, user is responsible for installing appropriate back up procedures, alarms etc. in case of pump
failure.
9If used with swimming pools, fish ponds, etc., ensure areas are clear of people and animals (including removal of fish from ponds). Note
that this pump is not designed for continuous use in a fish pond or similar water feature or display.
8DO NOT operate the pump if any parts are damaged or missing as this may cause failure and/or possible personal injury.
8DO NOT use the pump for any purpose other than for which it is designed.
8DO NOT use to pump chemicals, fuels, fatty liquids or salt water.
8DO NOT pump sludge, sand, gravel, mud, or fibrous materials. Ensure the inlet hose will NOT pick up any solid materials. Sand and such
substances will reduce working life of pump, and invalidate your warranty.
8DO NOT use to pump septic tanks or settling pits.
8DO NOT submerge the pump or the electrical cable in water. Protect the pump from external wet conditions.
8DO NOT operate pump during freezing temperatures. DO NOT allow any part of the pump or pipes to freeze.
8DO NOT carry pump by the cable, or piping. Only use the handle.
9 When not in use switch off pump and remove plug from power supply. Rinse pump, drain out any water and store in a frost free, safe
location.
WARNING! DO NOT allow uncontrolled discharge of contaminated water, thus polluting the environment.

NOTE: This appliance can be used by children aged from 8 years and above and persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental
capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge if they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the
appliance in a safe way and understand the hazards involved. Children shall not play with the appliance. Cleaning and user
maintenance shall not be made by children without supervision.
2. i INTRODUCTION
Manufactured from heavy duty corrosion resistant materials in either stainless steel or polypropylene. Suction pump suitable for drawing brackish
water up to 8 metres. Includes a removable filter for easier maintenance.
3. i SPECIFICATION
4. INSTALLATION
The pump may be gravity or suction fed. Gravity feed is the preferred arrangement as this
will place less strain on the long term operation of the pump. Depending on the installation,
various plumbing accessories will be required. Determine requirements and if necessary
contact your local Sealey dealer for advice on obtaining appropriate accessories.
4.1. PUMP
4.1.1. Locate pump in a suitable area, ensuring that there is good air circulation. Externally the
pump is not designed to be totally waterproof to protect it from possible wet situations.
Bolt the pump to a flat horizontal surface with the outlet pipe (fig.1A) pointing vertically
upwards.
4.2. GRAVITY FEED (preferred arrangement when the feed water level is above the pump
inlet).
4.2.1.1. Fit an isolation valve to the gravity feed pipe. Valve is used to turn water off and to restrict
the flow if required.
4.3. SUCTION FEED (when the feed water level is lower than the pump inlet).
4.3.1. If the distance (HA) is less than 4mtr; use a feed pipe of 1” diameter.
4.3.2. If the distance (HA) is greater than 4mtr; use a feed pipe of greater than 1” diameter.
4.3.3. The distance (HA) must not exceed 8mtr.
4.3.4. Connect a filter valve to the feed pipe inlet (fig.1B) to ensure water will be retained in
pump system.
4.3.5. Connect other end to pump inlet. The filter should be situated approximately 0.5mtr
beneath the water level.
4.3.6. We advise that a check valve is installed directly on the delivery line, to prevent the pump being damaged by “water hammer” and that a
cut-off valve is also installed (downstream from check valve) to facilitate maintenance work.
NOTE: With both gravity and suction feed ensure that the supply inlet pipe is the same height as the pump inlet or lower, and that, if
connecting to a drinking water supply, the water authority regulations are adhered to.
5. OPERATION
WARNING! Ensure that you read, understand and apply Section 1 Safety Instructions.
5.1. Check inlet water pipe is turned on or that inlet suction feed is placed in the water supply to a depth of at least 0.5mtr.
5.2. If using gravity feed, check and set the outlet restriction valve as necessary.
5.3. Prime the pump via the filler hole (fig.1C). Replace cap and ensure that there are no leaks. Open any closing/cut-off devices on the
delivery tube.
5.4. To run the pump, plug into the electrical mains supply and press the switch located on the side of the pump to ‘I’.
5.5. If, for any reason, the motor should overheat, a thermal circuit breaker will automatically activate and stop the pump. If this happens,
switch the mains power off and unplug. Check the reason for overheating and remedy the problem. If the pump is not switched off, the
motor will cool, after which it will automatically re-start.
6. MAINTENANCE
WARNING! Apart from the exceptions listed below, mechanical and electrical service maintenance and repair must only be
undertaken by an authorised service agent. Failure to observe this rule may be dangerous and will invalidate your warranty.
WARNING! Ensure that the pump is disconnected from the mains power supply before attempting any service or maintenance.
6.1. Keep all parts of the pump clean. Rinse and drain via draining hole (fig.1D) when not in use. Check all electrical connections to ensure
that they are in good condition.
6.2. If pump becomes blocked, remove the inlet pipe and direct a jet of water through the outlet whilst running the motor for several seconds.
Repeat this operation until the blockage has been expelled. If this action does not remedy the problem contact your local Sealey service
agent.
6.3. Unscrew the lid of the inlet filter (anticlockwise) remove the filter gauze and clean it in running water, see fig.1.E. Replace.
6.4. Clean any accessory filters according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
