Maintenance and cleaning

Attention! Dangerous electrical voltage. Possible consequences: Death or serious injuries. Protective measures:

• Electrical units and installations with a rated voltage of U > 12 V AC or U >30 V DC located in the water: Isolate the units and installations (switch off and disconnect from the power supply) before reaching into the water.

• Isolate the unit before starting any work.

• Secure the unit to prevent unintentional switching on.

WARNING

This pump uses a very strong magnet to achieve superior performance. When removing the impeller assembly there will be considerable magnetic force resisting the extraction of the impeller assembly. This is normal. Likewise when replacing the impeller assembly there will be a strong magnetic force pulling the assembly into the pump to potentially

cause injury to ngers and in rare cases damaging the ceramic shaft or rear bearing. Use thick gloves when replacing

the impeller assembly.

Cleaning the unit

● Regular cleaning of the pump may be necessary depending upon the environment in which it is operated. Clean the fountain when a drop in visual performance is detected.

● If necessary, clean the unit with warm water using a soft brush.

● Never use aggressive cleaning agents or chemical solutions.

These could attack the housing surface or impair the function.

● In the event of stubborn furring (calcium deposits), a common household cleaner free from vinegar and chlorine can be used. Subsequently, clean the pump thoroughly using warm water.

Cleaning the pump

1. Disconnect the pump and the transformer from the

power source.

○ Disconnect the pump from the oating fountain.

2. Remove the screen and disassemble the impeller

housing to expose the impeller assembly.

3. Remove the impeller assembly by pulling on the back round plate behind the impeller

4. Use a soft colth or brush to clean the impeller assembly and the inside of the impeller housing.

● Check parts for damages such as cracked rotor, cracks in the magnet, and broken plastics. Replace parts if necessary.

5. Reassemble in the reverse order.
