5.1 Starting

Before starting the pump, check that the
following requirements are fulfilled:
• The pump's inlet strainer must be
submerged below the surface of the liquid.

inlet strainer is not blocked by silt, mud or
similar materials.
• The pipe or hose connection is tight.
• The outlet pipe or hose is open (hose not
bent, etc.).
• The pump is connected to the power supply
in accordance with the instructions.
• For pumps with a float switch, check that the
float switch can move freely. See section

Startup procedure:
1. Switch on the pump and check:

2. For pumps with a float switch, check that the
float switch will allow the pump to pump
down to the chosen level according to fig. 5.
If you want to pump below this level, hold the
float switch in vertical position.
