CLEANING
Begin by ensuring that the mains power supply is disconnected before attempting any maintenance or adjustment of the
unit or the water body. Remove the unit from the water. If your unit is connected to a filter, the filters and sponges will
clog up over time. Please clean regularly (at least once a month) to ensure strong water flow. Failure to maintain the unit
will result in a burnt out motor and other damage.
All PondMAX high flow Pumps are water cooled, if pump becomes restricted, or blocked, it will overheat and could cause
permanent damage. When the flow starts to be reduced, check and clean if necessary.
The motor unit of the pump is encapsulated with epoxy resin and does not need lubrication. Regular inspections, cleaning
and maintenance of impellor is necessary to ensure longer life. In the centre of the impellor you may notice a small whole
opening that protrudes through the ceramic shaft from front to back. It is paramount that this portal is always kept
unblocked. This is a cooling channel for the motor.
1. Clean the housing and pump with a suitable brush, taking care to clean off sludge, algae and debris.
2. To maintain the impellor of the pump, turn the Impellor Cover in an anti-clockwise direction as indicated by the arrow,
to the stop position. Then separate the impellor cover from the pump motor body.
3. Lift out the impellor assembly. (Take care not to break ceramic shaft.) The black disc behind the blades is part of the
entire impellor assembly. Clean the impellor with clean water and a suitable brush taking note to remove fine sediment
on and around the back end of the impellor including the small hole through the ceramic shaft if it has one. Replace
the impellor if necessary.
4. On some models, in the centre of the impellor, you may notice a small whole opening that protrudes through the
ceramic shaft from front to back. It is paramount that this portal is always kept unblocked. This is a cooling channel for
the motor.
5. Ensure to replace the O-Ring in the correct place shown in the picture when reassembling the unit.
IMPORTANT NOTES
It is important to ensure that this is carried out regularly as the cooling path inside the motor will become clogged. If the
impellor assembly becomes worn or damaged it should be replaced (available from your dealer or special orders).
Failure to do so may cause serious damage to pump. Inspect for signs for wear and tear. The impellor set is a wearing
consumable part.
Once the cleaning and inspection process is completed, reassemble in the reverse manner. Reinstall the impellor into the
motor body. To place the Impellor O-Ring around the black disc successfully, firmly hold the disc with one hand, and using
the other hand stretch the O-Ring over the disc, positioning it carefully into the groove. Pay attention not to allow the
O-Ring to roll forward, in-between the black disc and the motor body. With the impellor in the correct position, carefully
place the impellor cover back on, and then stand on the impellor cover and screw the motor to the impellor cover with
the 5 stainless steel screws
For instructions for cleaning of optional Bio-filters check the website for further information. You can help boost the
biological function of your filtration with a bacterial additive, available from your local PondMAX Dealer.
