Please read these instructions thoroughly, before using the pump!
GB
Use
Centrifugal pump for submersible usage with resin encapsulated motor.
The pump is suitable for use in water, e.g. for garden ponds, fountains,
terraced fountains, indoor fountains, in fi sh-ponds, for the operation of
fi lter systems, fl owing brooks etc. as well as for circulating and oxygena-
ting water.
It is not allowed to use the pump in or on the side of swimming pools!
For all technical data please refer to the type plate.
Safety measures
- Caution! It may only be used in garden ponds and in their protection
area, if the electrical installations have been set up to comply with the
code's requirements. Please contact an electrician.
- Before use: Check whether mains connection and plug are intact.
- Mains voltage and type of current have to correspond to the data on the
type plate.
- The pump has to be connected to a regular safety plug socket
through a residual current device (RCD, 30 mA).
- The connection box should be located in a water-protected area.
It should be at least 2m away from the edge of the pond (see fi g.1 + 2).
- Keep the plug dry!
- Pull out mains plug before starting to work on the pump, fountain or
pond.
It is not allowed to run the pump when people are inside the water
(disconnect the pump)!
- Important! When the mains connection or the motor housing are
damaged, the pump cannot be used anymore. It cannot be repaired
since the connection is cast into the motor housing.
- Do never hang up or transport the pump by the cable!
- The pump must be run submerged!
Start-up (see fi g.1 - 3)
Important! Do not let the pump run dry.
This could cause damages to the appliance.
- Immerse the pump completely in your pond. This causes the pump body
to be fi lled with water.
- A water level of approx. 12 cm is required for submersible use in order to
prevent the pump from taking-in air.
- The water temperature should not exceed 35°C.
- Do not let the pump freeze in the wintertime.
- The pump is switched on by putting the plug in the socket.
- To prevent the pump becoming unnecessarily dirty, place it above the
mud in your pond, in a fi rm and horizontal position (on a brick)!
- A range of accessories may be fi tted onto the threaded connection of the
pump.
- Running in conjunction with fountain jets, the pump should be positioned
fi rmly and horizontally (on a brick).
- Through rotation of the adjuster the desired fl ow rate may be set
(see fi g. 3).
- To prevent the fountain jets becoming clogged, we recommend you
to fi t the enclosed fi lter sponge.

Dismantling / Assembly (see fi g. 4 - 7)
1. Follow the safety measures.
Disconnect the pump!
2. Press together the fi lter cover (1) laterally and take it out of
the pump (8).
3. Separate the fi lter sponge (2) from the adjuster/lid (3/4).
4. Remove the adjuster (3) from the lid (4).
5. Turn the lid (4) counterclockwise through approx. 20° in the oppposite
direction to the stop.
6. Remove the lid (4) from the pump (8).
7. Remove the complete rotor (5) from the pump (8).
The shaft of the rotor (5) is mounted on two rubber bearings in the
pump (8) and in the lid (4).
8. The complete rotor (5) can be made to rotate on the shaft.
9. Clean all parts using clear water so that they may be moved very
easily.
Do avoid using any sharp instruments.
10. Re-assemble the pump as follows:
10.1. Replace complete rotor (5) in the pump (8).
Make sure the rubber bearings are seated correctly in
the pump (8) and the lid (4).
10.2. Fit turned lid (4) onto the pump (8) and turn it clockwise until
stop.
10.3. Insert the adjuster (3) onto the lid (4) in the proper position.
10.4. Position the fi lter sponge (2) onto the adjuster/lid (3/4).
10.5. Place the fi lter cover (1) in the pump (8).
To ensure proper functioning, repeat the above procedure frequently
depending on clogging and working time.
Maintenance
In order to prolong the service life of your pump and to keep it in good
operating condition, it is recommended to carry out maintenance and
cleanup regularly.
This can be done by everyone, quickly and easily.
See „Dismantling / Assembly".
Servicing intervals
- In the beginning check performance of your pump every day.
If necessary, clean the fi lters.
- Since servicing intervals (complete cleanup) will vary depending on pond
pollution, repeat the periodic service to your pump in accordance with
the requirements given.
Should you determine that there are damaged or worn parts, do replace
them. See „Spare parts".
Winter / Pump care
Protect your pump from freezing-in!
Take the pump out of your pond in autumn.
Clean the pump completely following the outlined instructions.
During the winter months store the pump in a frost-resistant room.
