A leaking intake line will draw in air and
therefore not draw in any water.
Take measures to prevent the intake of foreign
bodies (sand, etc.). If necessary install a coar-
se filter.

11. Fitting a pressure pipe

The discharge line min. 19 mm (3/4") must
be connected either directly or with the aid
of a threaded nipple approx. 33.3 mm (R1)
female thread to the discharge line connec-
tion approx. 33 mm (R1) female thread of the
pump (Fig. 1/Item 7) .
You can also use a pressure hose of approx.
13 mm (1/2") with the relevant couplings. The
pump rate is reduced when using the smaller
discharge line.
During the priming process, the shut-off
devices present in the discharge line (spray
nozzles, valves, etc.) must be completely
open so that the air in the intake line can es-
cape freely.

12. Starting up

Place the pump on a firm and level surface.
Before starting the pump, it must be securely
mounted on the surface using the holes in
the stand (see Fig. 1/Item 3).
Fit intake line so that it is ready for use.
Fill pump with water at the filler screw (Fig. 1/
Item 6) up to the full point.
During the priming process, the shut-off
devices present in the discharge line (spray
nozzles, valves, etc.) must be completely
open so that the air in the intake line can es-
cape freely.
The initial intake process can take approx. 30
seconds to 5 minutes, depending on the suc-
tion height and volume of air in the intake line.
The pump should be topped up with water if
the priming time is longer.
If the pump is removed after use, it is essential
that it is filled with water again the next time it
is connected and started.
Establish electrical connection.

13. Cleaning and maintenance

The pump is largely maintenance-free. In or-
der to ensure a long service life, however, we
recommend regular checks and product care.
Caution!
The pump must be disconnected from
the power supply by removing the
power plug before carrying out any
maintenance.
Before lengthy periods of inactivity or winter
storage rinse the pump thoroughly, empty it
completely and store it in a dry place.
To drain the pump housing, undo the water
drain screw (Fig. 1/Item 4) and tilt the pump
slightly.
The pump must be completely emptied if there
is a risk of frost.
After relatively long periods of storage, switch
on and off briefly to check whether the rotor is
turning properly.
If the pump is clogged, connect the discharge
line to the water line and disconnect the in-
take line. Open the water line. Switch on the
pump several times for approx. two seconds.
This should resolve the majority of clog-rela-
ted problems.
We recommend lukewarm water to clean the
motor and pump housing.

14. Replacing the mains cable

Caution!
Disconnect the unit from the power sup-
ply! A defective mains cable may only be
replaced by a qualifi ed electrician.
