Finish Operation - Kärcher BP 4 Deep Well Mode D'emploi

Preconditions
In order to ensure the faultless operation of the appli-
ance, the following preconditions must be fulfilled:
 Minimum diameter of the well pipe: 15 cm
 The aquifer is large enough to ensure the water
supply to the pump.
Note:
Use filtering tubes to detain coarse soiling.
CAUTION
Risk arising from improper bore.
 Have an expert drill the bore.
Preparing the Appliance
CAUTION
Risk of injury or damage due to toppling appliance.
Prior to every operation, place the appliance on a level
surface and secure it against rolling away.
 Attach the switch cabinet to a suitable wall using
screws.
 Attach the fastening rope on both eyelets so that
the pump hangs straight.
Illustration
Connect garden hose or lifting tube:
 When using a garden hose, screw the connection
adapter into the connection piece.
Additional sealing is not required.
 Screw a fitting hose connection piece onto the con-
nection adapter.
 Attach the hose end to the hose connection piece
and secure it by means of a hose clamp.
Tighten the hose clamp using a ratchet (approx.
5 Nm).
 Lower the pump on the fastening rope into the fluid
to be delivered.
In order to prevent soiling in the intake area, set the
pump down on the ground and then pull it up at
least 50 cm.
The spacer foot protects the pump against sinking
in and soiling.
 Secure the fastening rope.
Illustration
The maximum immersion depth (h1) describes the
depth of the water in which the pump can still be in-
stalled. Usually it is not necessary to lower the pump to
the maximum immersion depth.
The delivery height (h2) describes the height difference
between the water level and the water outlet at the end
of the delivery hose. The maximum delivery height must
be observed so that the pump can deliver. This must be
observed over the entire pathway of the pump, as the
delivery height will increase with the falling water level
(due to pumping).
The fluid level must be at least 18 cm above the pump
base for the pump to draw independently.
 Insert the mains plug into the socket.
 Set the On/Off switch at the switch cabinet to "I".
CAUTION
Dry running damages the pump.
 Do not leave the pump unattended during operation.
 Alternatively use a dry run protection or an elec-
tronic pressure switch with dry run protection (see
optional accessories).

Operation
 Set the On/Off switch at the switch cabinet to "0".
 Disconnect the main plug from the socket.
DANGER
Risk of electric shock. Turn off the appliance and re-
move the mains plug prior to performing any care and
maintenance work.
Note:
Soiling can deposit and lead to malfunctions.
Rinse the pump with clear water at regular intervals.
 Set the On/Off switch at the switch cabinet to "0".
 Disconnect the main plug from the socket.
 Clean the intake grille using a suitable brush and
rinse with clear water.
Illustration
 Unscrew the connection adapter from the connec-
tion piece.
 Remove the check valve.
 Screw the connection adapter into the connection
piece.
 Connect the garden hose to the pipe system and
the pump adapter.
 Rinse pump with clear water.
 Install the non-return valve.
Ensure correct positioning of the check valve. The
labelling "Up" must point upwards.
The appliance is maintenance free.
CAUTION
In order to prevent accidents or injuries, mind the weight
of the appliance during transport.
When transporting in vehicles
 Secure the appliance against shifting and tipping
over.
CAUTION
In order to prevent accidents or injuries, mind the weight
of the appliance when selecting a storage location.
 Store the appliance in a horizontal position and se-
