The power cable of the Submersible Pressure Pump must be connected

to a socket which is positioned at a height of 1.10m (measured from ground).

Take care that the power cable leads downwards.

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

v Consult your qualified electrician.

v Take care that the electrical connections are made within dry area, protected

from flooding.

v Keep mains plug dry.

Protect plug and power cable from heat, oil and sharp edges.

The power cable must not be used for mounting or relocating the pump. For sub-

merging or lifting / securing the pump, please use the fastening rope.

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 trans former.

v Please ask your electrician for his advice.

In Switzerland

In Switzerland mobile appliances which are used outdoors, must be connected

via a residual-current device.

Notes on use

When connecting the pump to the water supply system, the country-specific

sanitary regulations must be observed to prevent water not of drinking water

quality being drawn back in.

v If necessary, contact your sanitary expert.

Sand and other abrasive substances cause increased wear and reduce the

pump's output.

During operation, the pump must always be submersed in the water up to the

minimum submersion depth (see 6. TECHNICAL DATA)

Do not allow the pump to run for more than 10 minutes against the closed

pressure side (e. g. closed valve, closed dispenser etc.).

Leaking lubricants can contaminate the pumped liquid.

DANGER! This product makes an electromagnetic field while it operates. This

field may under some conditions interfere with active or passive medical implants.

To decrease the risk of conditions that can possibly injure or kill, we recommend

persons with medical implants to speak with their physician and the medical

implant manufacturer before you operate the product.

DANGER! Small parts can be easily swallowed. There is also a risk that the poly-

bag can suffocate toddlers. Keep toddlers away when you assemble the product.

2. INITIAL OPERATION

Connect hose via the GARDENA Connection System [ Fig. I1 ]:

19 mm (3/4")- / 16 mm (5/8") and 13 mm (1/2") hoses can be connected

via the GARDENA Connection System.

Backflow preventer

[ Fig. I1 ]:

The backflow preventer

prevents the hose from running empty after the

pump has been turned off or taken out of operation.

With a parallel connection of more than one hose or connected devices,

the GARDENA 2 / 4Way Valve (Art. 8193 / 8194) can be used, which

is screwed straight onto the pump connection piece

Pump installation [ Fig. I2 ]:

The pump must always be submerged in the fountain or water reservoir

with the fastening rope

provided. For the pump to be primed,

the pump must be submerged to the minimum submersion depth

(see 6. TECHNICAL DATA) So that the filter does not become dirty, the

pump should be fixed at least 30cm above the ground.

1. Attach the fastening rope

to the handle

2. Submerge pump in the fountain or water reservoir via the fastening

rope

3. Secure fastening rope

4. With deep fountains or shafts (from approx. 5m), route the connection

cable

along the fastening rope

is already pre-installed by the manu-

with clips.

Thermal protection switch:

In the event of an overload, the pump is switched off by the built-in

thermal motor protection. After sufficient cooling of the motor, the pump

is operational again.

3. OPERATION

Automatic operation [ Fig. O1 ]:

The float switch

turns the pump on automatically when the water level

exceeds the cut-in height and the water is pumped out. The float switch

turns the pump off again as soon as the water level falls below the

cut-out height.

v During automatic operation, ensure that the float switch

move freely.

Adjusting the Cutin and Cutout Height:

The cable length between the float switch

must always be at least 10 cm.

1. Press the cable of the float switch

float switch lock

Do not select a cable length that is too long or short to ensure that the

float switch can turn on and off properly.

2. Plug the mains plug of the connection cable

The pump is now ready for operation.

• The higher the opening of the float switch lock

the cut-in and cut-out height.

• The shorter the length of cable between the float switch

and the float switch lock

the cut-out height.

Manual operation:

The pump remains in constant operation when the float switch is attached

facing upwards so that the cable is pointing downwards.

v Attach the float switch

The residual water height of approx. 25 mm is only reached during

manual operation since the float switch turns off the pump during auto-

matic operation before this water level is reached.

4. STORAGE

To put into storage:

The product must be stored away from children.

v Store the pump away from frost before the first frost sets in.

Disposal:

(in accordance with RL2012/19/EC)

The product must not be disposed of to normal household waste. It

must be disposed of in line with local environmental regulations.

IMPORTANT!

Dispose of the product through or via your municipal recycling collection

centre.

5. TROUBLESHOOTING

DANGER! Electric shock!

There is a risk of injury from electric shocks.
