1. Where to use your GARDENA Pressure Tank Unit
Correct use: The GARDENA Pressure Tank Unit is intended for private use in
the house and garden; it is not intended for operation of watering
equipment and accessories in public gardens.
Open consumers (e.g. taps) can cause fluctuations in pressure at
certain rates of flow around opening and closing.
Liquids pumped: The GARDENA Pressure Tank Unit can be used to deliver rain-
water, tap water and chlorinated swimming pool water.
Please note:
The GARDENA Pressure Tank Unit is not suitable for continuous
operation (e.g. industrial use, continuous circulation operations).
Corrosive, easily combustible, aggressive or explosive liquids
(such as gasoline, petroleum or nitro thinner), saltwater and
food must not be pumped. The temperature of the liquid
must not exceed 35 °C.

Electrical safety:
DANGER ! Electric shock !
Risk of injury due to electric
shock !
➔ Always unplug your Garden Pressure
Tank Unit before
filling, after operation,
when troubleshooting and before
carrying out any maintenance work.
Caution: Pursuant to DIN VDE 0100-702 use of
the pump near to swimming pools and garden
ponds and other similar places is only
permissible if the pump is operated via a
residual-current device (FI switch) with a
residual current rating of 울 30 mA.
The pump must be located on solid, even
ground, protected from flooding. Take care that
the pump cannot fall into water.
As an additional safety device an authorised
safety switch can be used.
➔ Please ask your electrician for his advice.
Data indicated on the type plate must match
the technical data of the mains supply.
Pursuant to DIN VDE 0620 the power cable as
well as any extension cable must not have a
smaller diameter than rubber sheathed cables
described with letter symbols H07 RNF.
Protect the power cable from heat, oil and
sharp edges.
Do not use the power cable for carrying the
pump or for unplugging.
In Austria
In Austria the electrical connection must satisfy
the ÖVE-EM 42, T2 (2000)/1979 § 22 to §
2022.1. This requires that pumps used for
swimming pools and garden ponds may only
be powered through an isolating transformer.
➔ Please ask your electrician for his advice.
In Switzerland
In Switzerland portable devices that are used
outdoors must be connected through an earth
leakage circuit breaker. Mobile appliances that
are used outdoors must be connected via a
residual-current device.
2. Safety instructions
General Information:
Risk of injury due to hot water !
If the pressure switch is defective and the
pressure tank unit runs for an extended
period (> 5 min) when the pressure side
outlets are closed, the water in the pressure
tank unit can become heated so that hot
water can emerge from the outlet and
cause injuries.
➔ Pump may only run for max. 5 min with
the discharge side closed.
If the water supply on the intake side of the
pump fails, the water in the pump can heat
up so that if water emerges, injuries could
be caused by the hot water.
➔ Disconnect pump from the mains, allow
water to cool down and ensure the water
supply is functioning correctly before
starting the pump again.
➔ Before operating the pressure tank unit, first
make a visual check to ensure there is no
damage to the
pressure tank unit (especially
regarding power cable and plug).
A damaged pressure tank unit must not be used.
➔
In case of damage, please have the pressure
tank unit checked by our GARDENA Service
Centre or by an authorised electrician.
Protect the pump from rain. Do not use the
pressure tank unit in a wet or moist area.
In order to avoid dry-running of the pressure
tank unit, take care that the end of the suction
hose is always submerged into the liquid.
The pressure tank unit must not be run dry nor
with the stopcock in the suction pipework closed.
➔ Before each operation, fill the pressure tank
unit to overflowing with approx. 2 to 3 l of
the liquid to be pumped!
Sand and other abrasive substances in the
liquid cause increased wear and reduce the
pump’s output.
When using the pump for domestic water
supply, please adhere to the local water and
sewerage regulations. In addition observe the
regulations of DIN 1988.
➔ If necessary contact your local water
authority.

3. Installation
Installing the The installation position must be firm and dry, and permit a secure
Pressure Tank Unit: mounting for the pressure tank unit.
➔ Install the pump at a safe distance (min. 2 m) from the pump-
ing medium.
The pump must be installed in a location with low air humidity
and sufficient ventilation in the area of the ventilation slots. It
must be at a distance of at least 5 cm from the walls. No dirt
contamination (e.g. sand or earth) may be sucked in through the
ventilation slots.
Fixed installation of the The mounting board (e. g. a wooden board) prevents the
Pressure Tank Unit: pressure tank unit slipping.
➔
Screw the pressure tank unit to the mounting plate with all four
feet (The use of cap screws is recommended).
Install the pressure tank unit so that there is room to place a suitably
sized drainage tray under the drain screw . To allow the unit or
system to be drained.
If possible install the unit higher than the surface of the water to be
pumped. If this is not possible, install a vacuum-resistant shut-off
device between the unit and the suction hose, for example for
cleaning the integrated filter.
If the pressure tank unit is being permanently installed indoors for
domestic water supply, the Pressure Tank Unit should not be
connected to the domestic water pipework with rigid pipes but
with flexible hoses, to reduce noise and to avoid damage to the
pressure switch due to vibration.
If the system is being installed permanently, please fit suitable
shut-off devices on both the intake and delivery sides. This is
important e.g. for maintenance and cleaning work or if the system
is being shut down.
The connection pieces on the intake and delivery sides must
only be tightened by hand.
Connect the hose to the Do not use any water hose snap connection system components
suction side: on the intake side. A vacuum-tight suction hose must be used e.g.
• GARDENA Suction Hose Art. no. 1411
• GARDENA borehole Suction Hose Art. no.1729.
To reduce the pump repriming time, we recommend:
• using a suction hose with backflow preventer, which prevents
the suction hose emptying automatically when the Pressure
Tank Unit is switched off.
• If the suction heights are high, use a suction hose with a small
diameter.
1. Connect vacuum-tight suction hose via a connection piece
(e.g. Art. no. 1723/1724) to the connection on the intake
side and screw in place so that it is airtight.
2. For suction heights exceeding 4 m also secure the suction
hose (e.g. by fastening it to a wooden post).
This relieves the pump of the weight of the suction hose.
If very fine dirt is present, we recommend the use of a GARDENA
pump preliminary filter art. 1730/1731 in addition to the integrated
filter.
