GARDENA Floating Pump SP 900, 12 V

Welcome to GARDENA aquamotion ...

Please read these operating instructions carefully and observe
the notes given.
Use the instructions to familiarise yourself with the equipment,
the operating controls, their correct use, and the notes on safety.

For safety reasons, children under 16 as well as persons not
familiar with these operating instructions should not use this
pump.

Keep these operating instructions in a safe place.

The Applications Range of Your Pump

GARDENA Floating Pumps have been designed for private use.
They are not designed for operating watering tools and systems.
The pumps may be used indoors as well as outdoors.

A GARDENA Floating Pumps have not been designed for con-

stant use in the industrial sector. Corrosive, easily combustible,
aggressive or explosive substances (e.g. petrol, petroleum, nitro
thinner) as well as salt-water or food / drinking water must not
be pumped.

A For Your Safety

The transformer should be operated via a residual current de­vice with a residual current rating of ≤ 30 mA (DIN VDE 0100­702 and 0100-738). Please ask your electrician for his advice.

Mains power cables should not have a smaller cross-section
than a rubber sheathed cable of the designation H05 RNF.
Extension cables must meet the requirements of DIN VDE 0620.

In Austria power cables should correspond to ÖVE-EM 42,
T 2 (2000) /1979 § 22 according to § 2022.1. According to this
standard pumps used in swimming pools and ponds should
only be operated via an isolating transformer. Please contact
your electrician.

In Switzerland mobile appliances which are used outdoors,
must be connected via a residual-current device.

Before operating the pump, look to see if there is any damage
of the pump (esp. regarding power cable and plug). A damaged
pump must not be used. In case of damage, please have the
pump checked by our GARDENA Service Centre or by an
authorised electrician.

Operating the Pump

Mains power cables

For Austria

For Switzerland

Visual check

Check line voltage. Data indicated on the type plate must match
technical data of the mains supply.

The pump must not be operated when there are people in the
water.

Swimming pools and garden ponds should be designed accord­ing to international and national design regulations. Please
consult a professional electrician.

Do not use the power cable to carry the pump or to pull the plug
out of the socket. Protect the power cable from heat, oil and
sharp edges.

Please unplug the pump after operation and before carrying out
any maintenance works.

The temperature of the liquid used must not be below 4°C or
above 35°C.

Sand and other abrasive substances in the liquid cause in­creased wear and reduce the output of the pump.

GARDENA pumps and plug connections have been designed
exclusively for the use with 12 V low voltage. When connected
to 230 V your life is at risk! Operate the pump only with the
delivered transformer.

Do not expose the transformer to direct sunlight.

Ensure that the transformer is positioned in a place safe from
flooding and at least 2 m away from the edge of the pond.

Please observe the local noise prevention regulations.

.

Always unplug the pump first before working on it.

.

Before assembling system extensions first unscrew the pre­assembled cascade of the pump and then screw one of the
water jets on again.

.

Follow the Safety and Assembly Information attached to the
operating instructions.

Operation

.

Put the pump into the water and arrange excess cabling below
the pump into a ring. This prevents the pump from floating to
the edge of the pond.

.

If the pump does not float level on the water, then it will need
to be balanced.

1. Dismantle the pump as described in the paragraph
“Dismantling”.

2. Use the knife supplied to carefully cut off
a section of the float (white styrofoam
ring). The right balance can be found by
turning the float.

The pump must be able to float freely in the water.
The water should be at least 20 cm deep.

Put the plug connection into a free socket of the transformer
and connect the power cable of the transformer with a 230 V AC
socket.

A Caution! Pump will start running immediately!

Avoid dry operation of the pump as dry running will produce
undesirable heat and destroy the pump.

Care Instructions

Take care that the pump is always completely submerged in water.
A lack of water can cause the feed impeller to turn in the wrong
direction.

➔ Remedy:

Disconnect the plugs and fill the pump with water.Then connect
the plugs again.

The lower part of the pump must be completely free from dirt
particles i.e. all filter outlets must be open. If they are obstructed
by dirt, they should be cleaned as follows:

.

If there are deposits of dirt inside the pump then dismantle the
casing (➔➔see „Dismantling”) and carefully clean the interior
fittings with water.

straight forwards and remove it! Do not tilt!

9. Pull the feed impeller out of the motor casing.

.

Then assemble all the fittings reversing the order and direction
in which they were dismantled. Please take care that the seal
ring is properly re-fitted.
