through the operating manual may not use the pump. The pump is intended for use
ONLY by adults who have fully read and understand these instructions. Whenever
Water and Electric are in the same place there are risks of electrocution and serious
injury or death. Always disconnect the pump RCCB from the mains before placing your
hand in the water to service maintain or clean the pump. The pump is ONLY intended
for use with water or water based (aqueous solutions) which have a content of at least
90% water. DO NOT use this pump for flammable, toxic, corrosive or irritant fluids.
a) The user is responsible towards third parties with regard to the use of the pump
(water installations, etc.)
b) Only operate on connections with residual current circuit breakers! Your
pump is fitted with an RCCB as standard. If removed for pump installation, it
must be replaced before the pump is switched on.
c) Before putting into operation, a qualified electrician must check that the required
electrical safety measures are place.
d) The electrical connection is to be made via an electrical socket.
e) Check the voltage. The specified technical information on the label must
correspond to the voltage of the electrical equipment.
f) During the operation of the pump, persons may not remain in the pumped
medium.
g) The temperature of the fluid to be pumped may not exceed 35°C. In the event that
extension cables are used, they must be exclusively made out of rubber, type H07
RN-F, and in compliance with norm DIN 57282 or DIN 57245. Never handle, lift or
carry the pump connected to electrical power by the cord. Make sure that the
connection power outlet is kept away from water and moisture and that the
power plug is protected from moisture.
h) Before putting the pump into operation, check that the electrical cord and
electrical residual current circuit breaker are not damaged.
i) Always pull out the residual current circuit breaker from the electrical socket
before performing work on the pump.
j) In the event that the pump is to be installed in a storm drain, one must
subsequently close the storm drain with a cover in order to safeguard the safety
of pedestrians.
k) Reinforce the mounting of the discharge pipe with the use of a pipe clip. Adhere
to the maximum immersion depth (See: Technical Information). The owner
(user)of the pump has the duty to take precautionary measures (installation of an
alarm device, back-up pump, etc.) for the avoidance and prevention of potential
damages (such as flooded rooms, etc.) due to faulty pump operation (because of
breakdowns or defects).On sandy or silty ground it is necessary to let the pump
run hanging by a rope or chain or to situate the pump on a suitable base in order
to prevent the sinking of the intake section.

PUTTING THE PUMP
INTO OPERATION
Attach the hose (Fig. C and D). Screw the provided
accessories onto the pump as illustrated in Fig.A. 32
mm, 25 mm, 19mm and 13mm hoses can be attached
to the universal connecting piece (4). The 19mm and
13mm hoses are attached with the use of special
connecting pieces (Fig.C). It is recommended to secure
the 32 mm and 25 mm hoses with hose clamps.
Components of the universal connecting piece, which
you need (for example, with 32 mm hoses), can be
removed with a knife from the universal connecting
piece (Fig.D). You will achieve optimal results with a
32 mm hose. Please note: A spiral hose significantly
impairs the pumping height and flow rate. Use only
flat hoses!
The on and off switching levels can vary. The specified
values are average values and do not apply if the float
switch is not affixed to the bracket for the float switch (3) .
Utilisation / Range Of Applications
Electric submersible pumps are used in the following areas:
Draining of cisterns, rainwater reservoirs, wells,
ponds, swimming pools and storm drains.
Draining of flooded cellars, boats and yachts.
For aeration and water circulation.
Please Note:
Special Instructions:
Avoid the intake of larger stones!
Maximum percentage of 5% solid material for dirty
water pump.
Basically, all other fluids are not permitted. Not
suitable for biological wastewater treatment plants
and cesspools.
No flammable fluids, gaseous or explosive
substances may be pumped using these pumps.
The maximum temperature of pumped fluids may
not exceed 35°C in continuous operation.

400W AUTOMATIC STAINLESS STEEL SUBMERSIBLE CLEAN WATER PUMP
Assembly / Putting The Pump Into Operation
The pump is supplied complete with a H05 RN-F electrical cable with a RCCB and 11/4 fitting for
32mm hose. Attach the necessary discharge pipe and reinforce the seal with a pipe clip. Water
flow, among other things, also depends on the diameter of the discharge pipe. A large diameter
means a greater flow rate, while a smaller diameter has a lower flow rate as a consequence.
Immerse the pump in the fluid to be pumped out (Check the maximum discharge head.)
Please Note! Prevent the Pump from Dry Running.
The pump is put into operation when the RCCB is plugged in and switched on. Note if using any
external 3 pin plug socket ensure that when the RCCB is fitted the socket is still weather proof. In
the event that the pump is lifted or handled, this must be done by the attached handle, not by the
connecting cable. In the event that the pump is submerged, if necessary, a rope or something
similar, which is tied to the handle, must be used.
On silty, sandy or pebbly ground, the pump run must be hung by a rope or chain or situated on a
suitably wide base plate in order to allow it to work submerged. Sand and other abrasive
substances reduce the service life of the components as well as the pump gaskets and should
therefore be avoided. In freezing temperatures, the pumped liquid should be removed from the
pump.
Exposure of the pump to the risk of freezing must be avoided in all cases. The pump must be
drained and be taken to a place protected against freezing temperatures. In order to make the
draining of the pump easier, it is recommended to let the air escape by submerging the pump
with the outlet connections directed upwards.
Note: Please put the pump into the water at an angle so that the air at the bottom of
the pump can escape.
Setting of the On / Off Switching Points:
The on or off switching point of the float switch can be set by means of a change of the float
switch in the float switch fixing / pivot point. Please, check the following before putting it into
operation:
The float switch must be attached in such a way that the ON and OFF switching point levels
can be reached with little expenditure of energy. Check this by putting the pump in a tank
filled with water and carefully lifting the float switch by hand and then letting it sink. In this
way, you can see whether the pump switches itself on and off.
Make sure that the space between the float switch head and float switch fixing / pivot point is
not too small. In the event of too small a space, faultless functioning is not ensured.
When setting the float switch, make sure that the float switch does not touch the bottom
before the pump is switched off. Please note! Risk of dry running.
Overloading Protection / Thermal Motor Switch
The submersible pump is equipped with a thermal motor switch. In the event that the motor
becomes overheated, the motor switch automatically switches the pump off. The cooling period
amounts to 25 minutes and subsequently, the pump switches on again automatically. In the event
that the motor switch operates, it is absolutely essential to find and eliminate the cause (Also see;
Troubleshooting Guide). The information given here may not be considered as instructions for
“home-made” repairs because repairs require specific technical expertise.
In the event of potential malfunctions, one must always contact authorised agent.

MAINTENANCE AND CARE
Before performing any maintenance work on the
pump, one must always disconnect the electrical
connection (pull the power plug out of the electrical
outlet.) and make sure that that the pump does not put
itself into operation. With the exception of the following
described cases, the pump must be sent to authorised
agent when it requires repair. Sand and other abrasive
substances cause premature wear and the reduction of
pump performance. Work on the electrical components
of the pump may be performed exclusively by
authorised agent (this also applies to the electrical
cable and float).
The submersible pumps require praclically no
maintenance. The bearings are self-lubricating
bearings. The occasional cleaning of the filter base is
sufficient so that further maintenance work is not
necessary. Only original replacement parts must be
used.
Example of a Pump Installation in a Storm Drain,
See Fig. 2.
Observe the minimum installation dimensions as
given in Fig.2.

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
Problem:
The pump switches itself off
because of overheating.
(thermal motor switch)
Possible Causes:
The water level is too low.
Clogged by drawn-in particles Foreign matter jammed in
the pump rotor.
The temperature of the pumped fluid
is too high.
It may not exceed +35°C in
continuous operation.
The pump runs,
but takes in nothing.
Reduction in the quantity
of water delivered.
The pump does not start or
Stops suddenly during operation.
The float is not functioning.
The motor switch did not
switch itself on.
The rotor is jammed.
The overheating protection switches
off the pump because it is overheated.
No electrical power.
Dirt particles (for example, pebbles)
have settled in the intake port.
Check the cord/plug/fuses.
Please note: Send the pump to
customer service.
The temperature of the fluid is too
high, a maximum of +35°C.
The intake section is clogged.
Clean.
Check the power source. Pull the
power plug out of the electrical
socket and clean the impeller.
Make sure that the permitted
highest temperature limit of
+35°C is not exceeded.
Check the fuse and electrical
connections. Clean the intake
port. Check the power source.
The discharge pipe is bent, kinked
or its diameter is reduced.
The base / rotor is dirty.

Clean.
Pull the power plug out of
the socket.
Remedy:
Submerge the pump more deeply.
Check and clean the pump.
Reduce the temperature of the
fluid.
Wait for approx. 26 minutes for
the motor to cool (motor switch).
The water level is below the
minimum intake level.
Air bubbles can accumulate with the
immersion of the pump or its
automatic operation because of an
inappropriate positioning of the float
switch.
This occurs at the minimum water
level when the pump does not stop,
but instead takes in air.
Intake filter clogged.
Discharge pipe clogged.
Switch the pump off.
Let the air out by tilting the pump
and again submerging it in water.
Remove impurities.
