ELECTRICAL SAFETY
Connection to the electrical socket. The pumps may
only be connected to electrical sockets, which are
equipped with a residual current circuit breakers
and earthing in working order for safety, your pump
is fitted with an RCCB. The pump is put into operation
by inserting the power plug into an appropriate
electrical socket.
SAFTEY INSTRUCTIONS
Please note: Before assembling and putting the
pump into operation, in all cases read through the
operating manual. For safety reasons, those persons
who have not read through the operating manual
may not use the pump. The pump is intended for use
ONLY by adults who have fully read and understand
these instructions. Whenever Water and Electric are
in the same place there are risks of electrocution and
serious injury or death. Always disconnect the pump
RCCB from the mains before placing your hand in the
water to service maintain or clean the pump. The
pump is ONLY intended for use with water or water
based (aqueous solutions ) which have a content of
at least 90% water. DO NOT use this pump for
flammable, toxic , corrosive or irritant fluids.
a) The user is responsible towards third parties
with regard to the use of the pump
(water installations, etc.)
b) Only operate on connections with residual
current circuit breakers! Your pump is fitted
with an RCCB as standard. If removed for pump
installation, it must be replaced before the pump
is switched on.
c) Before putting into operation, a qualified
electrician must check that the required electrical
safety measures are place.
d) The electrical connection is to be made via an
electrical socket.
e) Check the voltage. The specified technical
information on the label must correspond to the
voltage of the electrical equipment.
f) During the operation of the pump, persons may
not remain in the pumped medium.
g) The temperature of the fluid to be pumped
may not exceed 35?. In the event that extension
cables are used, they must be exclusively made
out of rubber, type H07 RN-F, and in compliance
with norm DIN 57282 or DIN 57245. Never
handle, lift or carry the pump connected to
electrical power by the cord. Make sure that
the connection power outlet is kept away from
water and moisture and that the power plug is
protected from moisture.
h) Before putting the pump into operation, check
that the electrical cord and electrical residual
current circuit breaker are not damaged.
i) Always pull out the residual current circuit
breaker from the electrical socket before
performing work on the pump.
j) In the event that the pump is to be installed in
a storm drain, one must subsequently close the
storm drain with a cover in order to safeguard
the safety of pedestrians.

k) Reinforce the mounting of the discharge pipe
with the use of a pipe clip. Adhere to the
maximum immersion depth (See: Technical
Information). The owner (user)of the pump has
the duty to take precautionary measures
(installation of an alarm device, back-up pump,
etc.)for the avoidance and prevention of potential
damages (such as flooded rooms, etc.) due to
faulty pump operation (because of breakdowns
or defects).On sandy or silty ground it is
necessary to let the pump run hanging by a
rope or chain or to situate the pump on a suitable
base in order to prevent the sinking of the intake
section.
l) In the event that the pump is damaged, the
repair should only be made by an
authorised service agent. Only original
replacement parts must be used.
m) The failure to correctly use, clean and maintain
the pump or to modify the pump or its
accessories in any way other than that described
in these instructions will prevent use for
accepting any responsiblity for damages , loss or
injury. The following illustrate some of the cases
where claims be refused :-
• Inappropriate repairs not made by an authorised
agents service agent
• Use of other than original replacement parts.
n) The connecting cable of this device may not be
replaced. In the event of damage to the cable,
the device should be scrapped.
o) Note this product has internal lubricant which
may escape contaminating the water ,
consequently the pump is not suitable for ponds
with fish or other aquatic organisms In addition
the pump can only be used to with water that is
NOT for drinking at a later date
p) The pump must always be powered via a
residual-current-operated protective device
(RCCB) with a rated current of not more than
30 mA.
The same rules apply for the accessories.
