3. Initial Operation
Setting up your Garden Pump:
The site must be firm and solid in order to ensure safe and sturdy
operating conditions for the pump.
v Position the pump at a safe distance (min. 2 m) from the liquid
to be pumped.
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 dirtcontamination (e.g. sand or earth) may be sucked in
through theventilation slots.
Connecting hose to

suction side:
suction side! A vacuum-resistant suction hose must be used,
e. g. GARDENA Suction Unit, art. no. 1411.

In order to reduce the suction time, it is advisable to use a suction
hose with backflow preventer avoiding automatic draining of the
suction hose when the pump is stopped.
1. Screw a vacuum-resistant suction hose

2. For suction heights exceeding 4 m also secure the suction
hose

This relieves the pump of the weight of the suction hose.
Connecting hose to

or 19 mm (3/4") hoses via the GARDENA hose connection system.
Optimised use of the pump capacity is achieved by connecting
19 mm (3/4") hoses with e.g. GARDENA Pump Connection Set
