run.
The pump runs
but does not pump
water.
POSSIBLE CAUSE
1. The batteries need to be replaced.
2. There is water inside the pump.
1. The screen is blocked.
2. The hose is kinked, bent or coiled.
3. The pump is airlocked.
4. The discharge height is too high.
5. Additional garden hose is not sloping
downhill away from the pump.
CORRECTIVE ACTION
1. Replace the batteries.
2. Remove the pump cover and
batteries, and dry the inside of
the pump. Allow the pump to dry
completely before re-installing the
batteries.
1. Clean the screen or impeller.
2. Straighten the hose.
3. Allow 10 - 30 seconds for the pump
to run in order to clear the airlock.
If this does not work, turn off the
pump, remove any additional
hoses, remove from water, place
back in the water and turn on.
4. Reduce the discharge height. The
maximum discharge height is 36
in. (3 ft.)
5. When using long sections of
additional garden hose, the hose
must sloped away from the pump
so that gravity can help the water
flow. Slope the garden hose
downhill.
