OVERVIEW
The Custom Automated Products Submersible Water
Pumps are carefully inspected and tested to ensure both
safety and operating performance. Failure to follow the
instructions and warnings in this manual may result in
pump damage and/or serious injury. Be sure to read and
save this manual for future reference.
WARNINGS
• Do not connect to any voltage other than that shown
on the pump
• Do not pump flammable liquids
• The National Electric Code requires that a ground
fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) be used in the branch
circuit supplying fountain pumps and other pond
equipment—see your electrical supplies dealer for
this device
• Do not use with water above 86°F
CAUTION
• Always disconnect from electrical outlet before
handling the pump
• Do not let the pump run dry
• Do not lift the pump by the power cord
• Do not pump heated liquids
PERFORMANCE
A clogged or dirty intake will greatly reduce performance.
If the pump is used on a dirty surface, raise it slightly to
reduce the amount of debris contacting the intake.
Do not let the pump run without water. Doing so may
damage the pump. Always submerge the pump first, then
plug in the electrical outlet.
Air caught in the pump and the tube may cause a
temporary malfunction known as "air lock." To remedy this
issue, unplug the pump, pour the water out of the pump,
then submerge it again. Shake it vigorously a few times
while underwater to dislodge any air bubbles, then plug it
back into the electrical outlet.
MAINTENANCE
To clean the pump, remove the back cover and the
impeller. Use a small brush or stream of water to remove
any debris.
IF THE PUMP FAILS TO OPERATE, CHECK THE FOLLOWING:
• Check the circuit breaker and try another outlet to
ensure the pump is receiving electrical power
NOTE: Always disconnect from the electrical outlet
before handling the pump
• Check the pump discharge and tubing for kinks and
obstructions
• Algae buildup in the pump and tubing can be flushed
out with a garden hose
• Check the inlet grill to ensure it is not clogged with
debris
• Remove the front cover to access the impeller area

INSTRUCTIONS
and turn the rotor to ensure it is not broken or
jammed
• Remember that monthly maintenance will add to
your pump's life
NOTE: Ensure that the electrical cord loops below the
electrical outlet to form a "drip loop." This will prevent
water from running down the cord into the electrical
outlet.

INFORMACIÓN GENERAL
Los productos personalizados como la bomba de agua
sumergible son examinados y probados minuciosamente
para garantizar tanto una seguridad como un
funcionamiento óptimos. En caso de no respetar las
instrucciones y advertencias de este manual, la bomba
podría sufrir daños graves. Lea el manual y consérvelo para
futuras consultas.
ADVERTENCIA
• Conecte siempre la bomba con la tensión indicada en
la misma
• No la utilice para bombear líquidos inflamables
• El código eléctrico nacional exige la utilización de un
interruptor de circuito por falla a tierra (GFCI) en el
circuito derivado que suministra electricidad a las
bombas utilizadas en fuentes y otros equipos para
estanques. Consulte al encargado del suministro
eléctrico de este aparato
• No utilice la bomba con agua de temperatura
superior a 30°C
PRECAUCIÓN
• Siempre desconecte la bomba de la corriente
eléctrica antes de realizar cualquier manipulación
• No haga funcionar la bomba en seco
• No levante la bomba por el cable de alimentación
• No la utilice para bombear líquidos calientes
FUNCIONAMIENTO
Si la entrada se encuentra obstruida o sucia, se reducirá
considerablemente el rendimiento. Si la bomba se utiliza
sobre una superficie manchada, elévela ligeramente para
reducir la cantidad de suciedad en contacto con la entrada.
No haga funcionar la bomba sin agua, podría dañarse.
Primero sumerja la bomba y, después, enchúfela a la toma
de corriente.
