WARNING: READ THESE ELECTRICAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS THOROUGHLY BEFORE CONNECTING THE PRODUCT TO THE MAINS SUPPLY.
Connect the mains lead to a standard, 230 Volt (50Hz) electrical supply through an approved 13 amp BS 1363 plug, or a suitably fused isolator switch.
If the plug has to be changed because it is not suitable for your socket, or because of damage, it must be removed and a replacement fitted, following the wiring instructions shown below. The old plug must be discarded safely, as insertion into a power socket could cause an electrical hazard
WARNING: THE WIRES IN THE POWER CABLE OF THIS PRODUCT ARE COLOURED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE FOLLOWING CODE: BLUE = NEUTRAL BROWN = LIVE YELLOW AND GREEN = EARTH
If the colours of the wires in the power cable do not agree with the markings on the plug.
• The BLUE wire must be connected to the terminal which is marked N or coloured black.
• The BROWN wire must be connected to the terminal which is marked L or coloured red.
• The YELLOW AND GREEN wire must be
connected to the terminal which is marked E or or coloured green.
An approved Residual Current Device (RCD) which has a tripping current of less than 30mA must be used.
If you are not sure, consult a qualified electrician. DO NOT try to do any repairs.

OVERLOAD SWITCH

These pumps are fitted with a thermal overload switch. If the pump overheats for any reason, it will automatically switch the pump OFF. Once the pump has cooled (at least 5-10 minutes), the pump will automatically restart.

USING THE PUMP

WARNING: CHECK THE PUMP FOR DAMAGE BEFORE USE, DO NOT USE THE PUMP IF IT IS DAMAGED IN ANY WAY.
1. Using the adaptor if required, connect a suitable hose (not supplied) to the pump outlet.
• Suitable hoses are available from
your local Clarke dealer.
2. Place the pump on a flat surface in the area that you want to drain.
• If there is sediment in the operating
area, the pump should be placed vertically on house bricks, or similar.
• Ensure the pump is positioned with adequate space so that the
movement of the float switch is not restricted - recommended minimum area of 50 x 50 cm.
• ALWAYS raise and lower the pump using a rope attached to the lifting
handle.
• Take all necessary precautions as described on page 3.
• The pump inlet must be fully submerged before the pump is switched on.
3. Connect the mains plug to a high sensitivity residual current device (RCD) which has a tripping current of less then 30mA.
4. Switch the mains power supply on.
• The pump will begin to drain water.
• As the water level falls, so will the float switch, until it stops the pump.
• You can adjust the position at which the float switch lead clips to the
side of the pump, If the length of the float switch lead is short the pump will turn on and off earlier.
5. When the pumping is finished, disconnect the pump from the mains power supply.
CAUTION: DO NOT ALLOW THE PUMP TO RUN DRY

MAINTENANCE

WARNING: BEFORE CHECKING THE CONDITION OF THE PUMP, ENSURE IT IS UNPLUGGED FROM THE MAINS SUPPLY. IF THE UNIT IS HARD WIRED, ENSURE THE CIRCUIT BREAKER IS OPEN.
This pump should require no maintenance other than regular cleaning.
If the pump starts to show signs of wear or damage, contact your CLARKE dealer for advice.

CLEANING

1. Check the pump installation regularly to ensure the water inlet is clear of leaves or other debris.
2. Take extra care to remove any debris from around the impeller.
NOTE: Do not attempt to repair the pump yourself. Repairs must be carried
out by your CLARKE dealer, or contact the CLARKE Service Department.

STORAGE

When the pump is not being used for extended periods, clean and dry it thoroughly and store it indoors. If the pump is left in water, it must be run at least once a week to prevent it from seizing up.

2. Check fuse (consult an electrician if in doubt).
3. If extension lead is fitted, check connections (consult an electrician if in doubt).
4. Internal thermal cut-out has not re-set. Leave for 5-10 minutes and try again.
5. The impeller may be jammed. Disconnect from the mains supply and remove any objects that may be obstructing the impeller.
6. Float switch may be jammed against side wall, or prevented from moving.
7. Water level too low - float switch in OFF position - lift float to check switch.
8. If the pump still fails to start, consult your CLARKE dealer for advice.
1. Check that the inlet is not blocked.
2. Check that the discharge tube is not clogged or obstructed.
3. The head may be too great, i.e. you are trying to lift the water too great a distance for the pump to cope with. (“Specifications” on page 7).
4. Air bubble in the pump, produced during the plunge. Plunge the pump again, at an angle, and shake it whilst lowering to remove any air trapped in the system.
5. Impeller may be damaged - Consult your CLARKE dealer.
1. Float switch may be prevented from moving to the fully down position.
2. Float switch may be faulty. Consult your CLARKE dealer for advice.
1. Thermal overload has operated. Leave for 5-10 minutes and try again.
