CAUTION! Never insert fingers or other objects into the inlet opening!
CAUTION! Remember that the pump must not run dry for more than 10
minutes!
CAUTION! The pump itself is not affected by the low temperature. However,
remember that the pump must not be switched on if it is iced up or immersed in
ice.

3.3. Cleaning and maintenance

a) A switch controlling the electrical power to the pump should be installed in an
easily accessible location.
b) Regularly maintain and clean the pump. Lack of hygiene and maintenance is
one of the main causes of poor pump performance.
c) Use a soft, damp cloth for cleaning.
d) Do not use sharp and/or metal objects (e.g. a wire brush or metal spatula) for
cleaning, as these may damage the surface of the material from which the unit
is made.
e) Do not clean the unit with acidic substances, medical products, diluent, fuel,
oil or other chemicals as this may cause damage to the unit.
f) Check electrical connections periodically to make sure they do not come in
contact with water, are waterproof (protected with marine grade sealant) and
mounted high enough.
g) Do not use household cleaners on the pump as many can damage the pump
materials.

CLEANING THE IMPELLER:

a) Inspect the pump regularly to ensure that debris is not blocking the impeller
and/or float. To do this, use the test knob by turning it clockwise.
b) To clean the water chamber, remove the pump body from the base by pressing
the latches on the sides.
c) Lift the pump casing.
d) To clean the impeller, unscrew the impeller cover screw and remove the
impeller cover.
e) Remove any debris that has accumulated in the pump chamber and around
the impeller. Make sure that all debris has been removed from the slots in the
pump base.
f) Check the impeller to make sure it is securely attached to the shaft and is not
cracked or broken.
g) Replace the impeller guard, bolt and pump body on the base.
h) Make sure that all latches are fully inserted.
