PurposeThe GARDENA battery pump is intended for private use in dome-
Please noteThe pump should not be used for the delivery of salt water,
stic gardens and allotments. It is intended for drawing rainwater
(or clear sweet water) out of rainwater butts e.g. the GARDENA
rainwater butt.
The battery pump is ideal for the operation of a sprayer, for
emptying rain barrels and paddling pools and for filling a watering
can easily.
The pump can withstand complete submersion (watertight
encapsulation) and is submerged in the water (max. submersion
depth 1.5 m).
muddy water, corrosive, easily inflammable or explosive
liquids (e. g. petrol, paraffin, thinners), oil, heating oil or foodstuffs.
The water temperature should not exceed 35 °C.
Attention! For risks of injury the Accu must not be used as
power source for other devices.
The battery pump may only be operated with the battery
supplied.
2. For Your Safety
➔ Please comply with the safety instructions
on the battery !
Warning !
Short-circuit – risk of fire
➔ Do not bridge contacts with metal

Battery Safety
Danger of fire !
➔ Never charge the battery near
to acids and easily inflammable
materials.
Danger of Explosion !
GB
The battery is not watertight, but can
remain suspended on the rainwater butt in
rain.
The battery connection line may not be used
for attaching or transporting the pump. The
pump can be submerged or raised via the
telescopic pipe. Alternatively, a rope can be
attached to the carrying handle to submerge,
raise and secure the battery pump.
The battery may only be charged using the
NL12 charger supplied as only the latter
guarantees optimum technical harmonisation
between the battery and the charger. Using
other chargers may result in injury to persons/
damage to property. The use of other chargers
will result in loss of all claims for liability and
warranty claims against the manufacturer.
Never charge the Accu after having been
heated up by operation or sun.
➔ Let it cool down first.
Never expose the Accu to direct sunlight while
charging.
➔ Always detach the battery from the pump to
Fully discharging the battery can destroy it.
➔ Charge low battery immediately.
Only use the battery for the battery pump.
➔ Never throw a worn out battery
on to an open fire.
charge it.
Under extreme conditions some accu acid
could escape. This, however, does not represent a defect. Proceed as follows should the
casing leak:
1. Immediately wash the affected area of the
skin with soap and water.
2. Neutralize the accu acid with vinegar or
lemon juice.
3. If accu acid should get into your eyes,
rinse your eyes for at least 10 minutes
with fresh water. Then contact your doctor
immediately!
Inspection
Always inspect the battery pump (especially
the connection line) before using it.
A damaged pump may not be used. If damaged, it is essential to have the pump checked
by GARDENA Service.
Safety Instructions
Dry-running destroys the pump!
➔ Switch the pump off immedia-
tely the conveyed fluid runs out
(turn knob to "0“).
➔ Comply with the minimum depth of water
stipulated in the specification for the pump.
Do not allow the pump to run with the output
side closed.
Electronic Circuit-Breaker
If overloaded, the pump is switched off by the
electronic protective switch in the Accu. The
motor starts again automatically when it has
cooled down (see 6. Trouble-Shooting).
Automatic Venting
The pump is fitted with a vent valve.
The purpose of this vent valve is to remove
any cushion of air present in the pump.
3. Initial Operation
10
We recommend using a GARDENA hose connection:
Art. (2)915/2025 for 13 mm (1/2”), Art. (2)916/2026 for 16 mm
(5/8”) and Art. 2817 for 19 mm (3/4”) for connecting a garden
hose.
The 1/2” hose should not be more than 20 m long.
A relatively higher water pressure (greater spraying power)
is to be expected from the watering equipment when 19 mm
(3/4”) hose connections are used because the friction losses in the
hose are lower.
Setting up the telescopic
pipe on the container:
1. Screw telescopic pipe on the pump.
2.
Release clamping sleeve of the telescopic pipe.
3. Adjust telescopic pipe stalk to the height of
the container. The length of the telescopic pipe
can be adjusted between 39–62 cm.
4. Tighten clamping sleeve
The length of the telescopic pipe should be set
in such a way that the pump does not touch the
bottom of the container. This prevents dirt in the
container reaching the pump.
A rope must be run through the handle
pump for deeper water containers (max. 1.5 m).

Use in shallow vessels:
If the battery pump is used in flat containers, e.g. to empty a
paddling pool, the telescopic pipe can be removed and replaced
by the threaded tap connector supplied. The 13 mm (1/2”),
16 mm (5/8”) or 19 mm (3/4”) hose connection must be set up
using Original GARDENA System hose connections.

4. Operating
Charging the battery:The battery may only be charged using the NL-12 charger
supplied or the solar panel, Art. 7851-00.620.00 with charging
cable Art. 1498-20.600.22, obtainable from GARDENA Service.
Operating the pump is not possible during charging !
The battery is partially charged in the works for safety reasons.
The battery must be charged before it is used for the first time.
As this NiCd-battery is subject to self-discharging, the battery
must be charged up to reach a full charge if it has been stored for
a relatively long time.
