Before positioning the pump, make sure that the suc-
tion strainer will not be blocked or partly blocked by
silt, mud or similar materials.
This can be avoided by positioning the pump on
bricks, an iron plate, etc. See fig. 5.

4. Operation

4.1 Starting

Before starting the pump, check:
• whether the pump is submerged in liquid. During
normal operation, the strainer of the pump must
be below the surface of the liquid
• whether the pump is positioned on a base so that
the strainer is not blocked by silt, mud or similar
materials
• whether the pipe/hose connection is tight
• whether the discharge pipe is open (bend of hose,
etc.)
• whether the pump is connected to the electric sup-
ply in accordance with the instructions
• check the float switch for free movement.
After start-up, check that:
• the pump operates properly, that water is being
pumped, and the pump operates through the con-
trol sequence
• the float switch will allow the pump to pump down
to a level of approximately 4". To pump out below
this level secure the switch in the manual position.
See 3.4 Adjustment of float switch.
As a precaution, the suction strainer must
always be fitted to the pump during opera-
tion.

5. Maintenance

Under normal operating conditions, the pump is
maintenance-free.
If the pump has been used for liquids other than
clean water, it should be flushed through with clean
water immediately after use.

5.1 Cleaning the pump

Never dismantle the pump unless the elec-
tricity supply has been switched off.
During dismantling, caution should be
exercised as there will be access to sharp
edges, etc. which may cut.
If the pump does not deliver a sufficient quantity of
water because of sediment, dismantle and clean the
pump.
The dismantling of the pump is carried out as fol-
lows:
1. Disconnect the electricity supply.
3.5"
2. Allow the pump to drain.
3. Carefully loosen the suction strainer by inserting
4"
a screwdriver in the recess between the outer
casing and the strainer and pressing it hard.
Repeat the procedure until the strainer is free
and can be removed, see fig. 7.
