Any damage to the o-rings, even small, can seriously endanger the pump performance. In this case, it
is best to replace them.
IMPORTANT: The build-in circuit board of the pump has been programmed to provide 3 levels of
protection:
Protection against rotor's blockage: In case of malfunction which causes the lock of the rotor (due
to excessive dirt or other) or of operating without water, the pump, after 20 attempts to start, followed
by a short interval of time, and other 20 attempts will stop automatically. If this does not happen, the
pump will automatically go on standby, the electronic board will remain powered but the engine will shut
down. In this case to restart the pump you need to remove and re-insert the plug into the power outlet.
Dry running protection and thermal protection: motor's protection in case of functioning without
water. The pump stops when it works without water, or if there is a locked rotor. When the pump is taken
out from the water, the motor stops.
ATTENTION: do not underestimate the power of the magnet. If you slightly loose the grip and the axis
hits the rear bearing, the risk to damage the bearing is very high. A damage axis and bearing causes
high reparation costs.
SPECIAL MAINTENANCE AND REPLACING GROUP ROTOR
Follow this instruction for an accurate rotor kit cleaning or replacing
Repeat the opening actions as indicate in Maintenance section, steps 1,2,3,4.
To easily remove the bottom bearing, we suggest to leave the pump submersed with water and vinegar
for a while to soften debris or limestone.
- Insert the hooks supplied (SVE0052 - SVE0054) inside the tube of the pump. (Pic 10)
- Hook the bearing and pull it out
- Clean the bearing under running water (never use soap or detergent of any kind because they pollute
the aquarium water: we recommend using a vinegar and water solution) possibly using a soft brush to
remove scale deposits. If it is heavily worn, we suggest to replaces it with a new one.
- Re-insert the bearing sleeve in the pump (Pic.10) after wetting and push it all the way.
