DESCRIPTION
BEFORE USE
Hose connection
Screw the curved fitting (supplied) to the pump, with the opening upwards, as in the above
photo. Now connect the hose connector to the fitting.
The hose connector narrows from 32 to 25 mm. If you are exclusively using a 32 mm hose, you
can remove the remaining piece of the fitting with a sharp knife or saw. Attach the hose to the
appropriate part of the connector with a hose clamp.
The best results in terms of pumping efficiency are achieved with a 32 mm hose.
Attaching the float switch
The pump is equipped with an adjustable float switch. You adjust the points at which the pump
switches itself on and off by shortening or lengthening the float cable using the attachment on
the handle.
You must check the following before using the pump for the first time:
The float switch must be set so that the pump can reach the points at which it must switch
itself on and off easily and without any force. In order to check this, you must place the pump
in a container filled with water. Manually lift the float switch gently and then allow it to
descend. You will feel when the pump switches on and off and can modify these points, if
necessary, by shortening or lengthening the float cable via the catch.
Do not make the distance between the float and the cable catch on the handle too short; the
float switch needs a little space in order to run smoothly.
When setting the float switch, ensure that it does not touch the bottom before the pump
switches off. Make sure that the float cannot get caught on anything. If the float cannot
transmit the 'OFF' signal, the pump will continue to work until it runs dry or burns itself out.
Locating and moving
-
Make sure the pump is positioned at a stable location, particularly if you want it to work
automatically.
-
Ensure that the float can move around freely, particularly if it is to work
-
Ensure that the suction openings are not blocked (not even partially). If the pump is
positioned on a soft surface (e.g. a sand bed), place it on a tile or something similar.
-
Do not use the electrical cable or float cable to lift the pump or hang it up. If you wish to
locate the pump in a water source or shaft, use a rope that is attached to the handle to do
so.
