Maintenance And Care; Warranty - T.I.P. WP 500-10 R Traduction Du Mode D'emploi D'origine

9. Maintenance and care

To significantly extend the service life of your pump, and to ensure trouble-free function, we recommend regular
maintenance and cleaning. With a few hand movements every user can easily execute all maintenance tasks. For this,
the pump must be dismounted, as described in chapter 7. All parts can be cleaned with a non-metallic brush and a
neutral cleaner. Ensure that the cleaning agent does not get into the pond water. Carefully rinse off all cleaned parts with
clean tap water, before putting the pump back together and placing it in service. If the pump is heavily calcified, you can
place the run unit and the motor block in a descaling solution for stainless steel parts. In this regard comply with the use
instructions provided with the descaling agent.
9.1. Maintenance intervals
The time intervals for the required maintenance task (complete cleaning) to a great extent are based on the level of pond
water contamination. Select the time intervals for cleaning accordingly.
If, when performing maintenance tasks, you determine that there are defects or wear, replace the parts in question.
(See ordering spare parts).
9.2. Winter - maintenance

Protect your pump from freezing!

If there is danger of freezing, take the pump out of your garden pond.

Completely clean the pump as specified in the instructions.

Store the pump over winter in a frost-free location.
