5. Dry run protection

The pump is equipped as standard with a dry run protec­tion. Two sensor points are provided on the side of the

ousing for this. The pump works if these points are

h

nder water. If a point projects out of the water, the pump

u
does not work.

6. Care and maintenance

For optimum performance of the pump, it must be washed occasionally with warm

ater depending on the water contamination. To wash the pump, open the housing

w

s follows:

a

Note: Please do not use force while dismantling or assembling the pump. The parts

re very fragile and can break easily.

a

. Disconnect the pumpʼs plug.

2. Pull the front cover of the pump forward like a slide gently (Figure 1).
. Turn the front cover of the pump by about 45° clockwise (Figure 1) and carefully

3

ull the cover forward (Figure 2). Watch out for the plastic shaft and the seal while

p

oing this.

d

4. Carefully drag the impeller out of the pump (if necessary, use pliers). (Figure 3).
. Now clean all the parts carefully with warm water.

5

. Then plug the shaft with the impeller carefully into the hole of the pump. Ensure

hat the shaft is fitted firmly.

t

7. Now place the cover carefully over the pump. Ensure that the seal is fitted proper-

ly.

. Turn the front cover again by 45 degrees counter-clockwise into the starting posi-

ion.

9. Slide the lower part of the pump completely into the pump housing.

The pump is ready to use again.

3. Intended use

This submersible pump is designed for pumping water in garden ponds, fountains,
water dishes, etc. It can pump water through a hose connection or can be operated
through attached lifting tubes with water sprinklers.

A solar module or a power pack with a voltage of 6 to 9 volts can be used as the
energy source. When used with a solar module, the pump works only if enough
solar radiation strikes the solar module.

The delivery rate of the pump can be adjusted using the regulator on the front side
of the pump. The water pump has no On/Off switch. As soon as the pump is con­nected to its power supply, it starts pumping water.

4. Installation and commissioning

1. Roll out the connecting cable of the
pump completely.

2. Place the pump in water (please note
Point 5 here).

3. Connect the lifting tubes till they project
out of the water surface. For this, first
attach the reducer to the pump.

4. You can now choose from 3 different
water nozzles or a single jet nozzle. The
multiple jet nozzle attachments are
always snapped onto the nozzle cup.

5. Alternatively, the pump can also be
used for pumping water through a hose.
For this, you just have to attach a hose
to the pumpʼs pipe.

6. Now supply power to the water pump
through a solar module. Use the enclo­sed plug with cable (red = positive pole,
black = negative pole) for this. If you
have purchased this pump as a comple­te solar power system, then the appro­priate plug is already attached to the
solar module.

Note: The plug has reverse-polarity protection, no force should be used while inser­ting. The glass of the solar module is fragile.
Caution! Risk of injury! A broken module cannot be repaired again and must be dis­posed off in an environmental-friendly way.

7. If the pumping capacity is too high, you can reduce the amount of water. Simply
turn the regulator on the front side of the pump in clockwise direction. Please
do not use force while adjusting. The adjustment range is 45°.

7. Malfunction

Pump is not pumping water

- Is the pump completely submerged in water? Dry run protection (Point 5)

- Is the polarity of the supply voltage reversed? Cable colour brown = + pole,
blue = negative pole

- Is the pump dirty? Cleaning the pump, see Point 6.
