cause damage to the pump.
It is forbidden to draw water from tanks where people are present.
Ensure that the end of the suction hose with the fi lter is always below the liquid surface.
The device must be positioned horizontally Tipping or tilting the device leads to malfunction,
reduced performance, and can also result in damage to the device.
It is forbidden to drill any holes in the device, as well as making any other modifi cations of the
device not described in the manual.
Move the device by grasping the handle or housing. Do not move the device by pulling on
the hose.
Recommendations for connecting the device to the power supply
The device may only be powered by the YATO lithium-ion battery with a rated voltage of 18
V. It is forbidden to modify the socket or the battery to match one to another. Battery electrical
contacts and sockets should be kept clean. Do not short-circuit the battery contacts to check
the charge status.
PRODUCT OPERATION
Preparing the product for operation
Caution! The procedure described in this section must be carried out with the device disconnected from the power supply. Make
sure that the battery has been disconnected from the device.
The product must be unpacked by removing all packaging elements. It is recommended to keep the packaging, as it can be helpful
for further transport and storage of the product.
Check the product for damage. If any damage is detected, do not use the product until the damage has been repaired or the
damaged components are replaced with new ones that are free of defects.
The direction of liquid fl ow through the pump is indicated by an arrow on the pump housing.
Connect the hoses to the pump inlet and outlet. Slide the hose end onto the connection port and secure it with the clamp. Do not
tighten the clamp too much to avoid damaging the hose.
If the hose is connected to the pump inlet, its wall must be rigid enough not to collapse under negative pressure generated by the pump.
Before installing the battery, make sure that the power switch is in the off position – O.
The battery compartment is located under the latched cover. Push and hold the cover latch and then lift it up (II). Slide the battery
into the socket guides until the latch mechanism engages. After installing the battery, latch the battery compartment.
The pump is ready for use.
Safety instructions for battery charging
Caution! Before starting charging, make sure that the power unit body, cord and plug are not cracked or damaged. It is forbidden to
use a defective or damaged charging station and power unit! Use only the supplied charging station and power unit to charge the
batteries. The use of another power unit may result in fi re or damage to the tool. The battery should only be charged in a closed,
dry room, protected against unauthorised access, especially by children. Do not use the charging station and power unit without
the constant supervision of an adult! If you need to leave the room where the tool is being charged, disconnect the charger from
the mains by removing the power unit plug from the mains socket. If smoke, suspicious odours, etc. are escaping from the charger,
remove the charger plug from the mains socket immediately!
The compressor is supplied with an uncharged battery and should therefore be charged according to the procedure described
below with the included power unit and charging station before use. Li-ion (lithium-ion) batteries do not have the so-called "mem-
ory eff ect", which means they can be recharged at any time. However, it is recommended to discharge the battery during normal
operation and then charge it to full capacity. If, due to the nature of work, it is not possible to use the battery in such a manner
every time, it should be done at least every several work cycles. Never discharge any batteries by short-circuiting the battery
plates, as this will cause irreparable damage! In addition, do not check the battery charge status, by short-circuiting the plates
and checking their sparking.
Battery storage
Ensure the proper storage conditions to extend the battery's life. The battery can withstand approximately 500 charge-discharge
cycles. Store the battery at a temperature ranging from 0ºC to 30ºC at the relative air humidity of 50%. Charge the battery to ap-
prox. 70% of its total capacity to store it for a longer period of time. In case of prolonged storage, the battery should be periodically
