Installation and connection
The pump can be installed submerged (in water) or dry (outside the water).
The use of the pump is only permitted subject to adherence to the specified water quality.
(→ Permissible water values)
• Pool water or salt water can impair the appearance of the unit. Such impairments are excluded
from the warranty.
WARNING
The power supply carries dangerous electrical voltage and must not be placed directly near wa-
ter. Otherwise, there is a risk of serious injury or death from electric shock.
Install the power supply in a flood-protected position at a distance of at least 6.6 ft (2 m) from
the water.
CAUTION
Rotating components in the area of the intake connection and the pressure connection. Reach-
ing into the connections can lead to injuries.
Please note in particular: If a unit has stopped due to overload, it can start up unexpectedly!
Do not reach into the opening of the inlet connection or outlet connection while the power
plug is connected.
If the connections are freely accessible, e.g. if no hoses are connected, secure the connections
with a finger guard. The finger guard is available as an accessory.
NOTE
If the pump is used for conveying excessively muddy water, the impeller unit will be subject to
increased wear and will require earlier replacement.
Thoroughly clean the pond or pool before installing the pump.
Install the pump at a raised level above the bottom of the pond. This reduces intake of muddy
water.
Avoid direct sunlight when the components of the unit are not immersed, as this can cause
them to heat up considerably. Use a protective cover if necessary.
