Inserting the profile seal
After the coupling flange is mounted, the profile seal must be inserted. To do this, push
it into the coupling flange so that the two rubber lips are firmly attached in the groove.

Start-up
1.
Fasten the handle or the lashing point of the pump to the lifting device using slinging
gear and shackles.
2.
The slinging gear must be fastened to the handle or lashing point in such a way that the
pump is tilted slightly forward. This is necessary to prevent the pump from getting stuck
on the guide pipes when it is being lowered and to ensure that it lies properly on the
coupling base.
3.
Raise the pump, move it over the guide pipe(s) and lower the pump along the guide
pipes. The two guide claws on the coupling flange must enclose the guide pipes.
4.
Lower the pump until it lies completely on the coupling base.
5.
Remove the slinging gear from the lifting device and secure it on the pit entrance or the
edge of the reservoir.
6.
Connect the pump and put it into operation as instructed in the operation and mainte-
nance manual.
6.1.
Function test
A function test can only be carried out if the pit or reservoir is empty.
Install the pump as described. Then check whether the coupling base and flange are
completely connected. The entire coupling flange must lie flat on the coupling base.
