PUMP INSTALLATION: USE AND REGULATION
Proceed as follows to install the pump:
-Connect the joint to the pump outtake to which you can connect the hose with the appropriate diameter.
- Place the pump in an area of the pond, easily accessible for the maintenance operations.
- If the pump is used submersed and not in line, it must be always fully submersed. (Pic. 1)
IN LINE APPLICATIONS
It is recommended to place the pump in spaces where there is a 'proper ventilation and the pump is
not directly exposed to heat sources.
Place the pump so as to prevent too long idraulic pipings, which would reduce its performance.
Do not position the pump above the water level (Pic.2) because it is not self-priming and the risk of the
pump to run dry. The risk of invisible air bubbles creating a vacuum area is very high. Damages which
are caused by the pump running dry are excluded from warranty.
To maximize the pump's efficiency, choose a straight inlet tube without elbows. (Pic.3)
We suggest an Inlet and outlet tubes with diameter equal or bigger than the diameter of the threaded
pipe included. (Pic.4)
Do not use the pump leaving the outlet totally closed. A minimum water flow is necessary to keep the
inner motor cool without running dry (Pic.5)
MAINTENANCE
For the periodic maintenance of the pump, unplug the pump from the electric socket and then remove
the pump from water.
1) Lift the plastic ring of the pump's volute pulling the tab outwards (Pic.6)
2) Remove the ring (Pic.7)
3) Remove the volute of the pump by turning and simultaneously pulling forward (in the case of fouling
this may take more pressure).
4) Pull out the complete rotor set (Pic.8)
5) Rinse each part with water, using a soft brush to remove the deposit.
6) Then assemble everything in the inverse order.
7) Put the ring in place with the biggest teeth facing the pump and close it by pressing on the tab until
you hear a "click". (Pic.9)
