Please read the instructions thoroughly before using the pump!
GB
Otherwise you may not use it!
Construction
These modern, powerful pumps are equipped with a single-phase
alternating-current motor (canned motor with capacitor). The motor is
waterproof encapsulated in synthetic resin (IP68) and provided with
an overload protection.
For all technical data please refer to the type plate.
Use
These pumps are designed for the transport of water, for the operation
of fi lter systems,water displays, waterfalls, etc., as well as for oxygenating
and circulating the water.
Area of application: garden ponds, fi shponds, outdoor and patio
fountains!
- Attention! Use in garden ponds and their protected zone is permitted
only if the installation is performed in compliance with the applicable
regulations.
Please consult a licensed electrician.
- Before performing any work on the pump, the fountain, or the pond,
disconnect the mains plug. Do not operate the pump if people are in
the water! (disconnect the pump from the power source)
Area of application: swimming pond or swimming pool (if people are
in the water)!
Pump suitable for installation and operation in systems and rooms
according to DIN VDE 0100 Part 702 and Part 737, if the erection
requirements per DIN VDE 100 and the manufacturer's specifi cations
(assembly and operating instructions) are followed.
Installation of these pumps at swimming ponds or swimming pools must
comply with the following standards: DIN EN 13451 Part 1 to Part 8, and
DIN VDE 0100 Part 702 and Part 737.
Attention! Here operation of the pump is permitted only if the pump is
permanently installed outside of the water at least 2 m or more away
from the pool.
The following measures must be undertaken: (see fi g. 3)
- Build a shaft with pedestal for the pump,
at least 2 m away from the edge of the water.
- Protect the shaft with a cover.
- To protect the pump from fl ooding build a drain for the shaft.
- Attach the pump to the pedestal with screws.
- Install a "M" metal socket in the suction line, toward the pump, to
connect to the equipotential bonding of the swimming pond/swimming
pool system!
- Please consult a licensed electrician.
Also refer to "Non submersible use" and "Safety Measures."
Safety measures
- Before use: Check whether mains lead and plug are intact.
- Mains voltage and kind of current have to conform to the information on
the type plate.
- The pump may only be connected to a proper earthing-contact type
socket through a residual current device (RCD, 30 mA).
- The connection box should be located in a water-protected area and
at least 2 m away from the edge of the water (see fi g. 1 + 2).
- Always keep the plug dry.
- Important! If the mains lead or the motor housing are damaged, the
pump cannot be used anymore. It cannot be repaired since the lead is
permanently encapsulated in the motor housing.
- Do never hang up or transport the pump by the mains lead.

Start-up (see fi g. 1 - 4)
Important! Do not let the pump run „dry".
This could cause damages to the appliance.
- Immerse the pump completely in your pond.
This causes the pump body to be fi lled with water.
- A water level of approx. 25 cm is required for submersible use in order to
prevent the pump from taking-in air.
- The water temperature may not exceed 35°C.
- The pump must be protected from frost.
- The pump is switched on by putting the plug in the socket.
- To prevent the pump becoming unnecessarily dirty, place it above the
sludge deposits in your pond, in a fi rm and horizontal position (on a
stone slab)!
- A range of accessories may be fi tted onto the threaded connections of
the pump.
- The supplied screen inserts are suffi cient as protection from intake in
clear water.
- Depending on the fi eld of use, the outlet side can be mounted upwards
or siedewards. Carry out step 1 - 3 Dismantling and step 6 - 8 Assembly!
- Suitable fountain jets can be found in our range of accessoires (catalog).
"Non submersible use" (see fi g. 3 + 4)
The pump can be used in a nonsubmerged type application.
- Position the pump below the surface of the water, at the side of the pond
so that the water can fl ow into the pump (not self-priming).
- Remove strainer insert (8) (see fi g. 5).
- Connect suction hose (S) and pressure hose (D) to the pump.
Connection should be watertight.
- Suction hose and pump must be fi lled with water before switching-on.
- TIP! To prevent the pump becoming clogged, provide the suction hose
with a pre fi lter Art.-No. 168 / 009051 covered in our range of
accessories.
Overload protection
In case the pump is becoming overheated the built-in thermal overload trip
switches it off.
The pump must cool down.
The pump will not start automatically without the necessary controlling
when it is cool.
Check the following operating conditions:
- Is there a suffi cient water supply?
- Has the fi lter become clogged?
- Has dirt entered the pump housing
(Follow the cleaning instructions below)?
- Have hoses or jets become clogged?
- Has the pump cooled down?
As soon as you have solved the problems, you can switch on the pump
again by pulling the plug out of the socket and putting it in again after a
short time (1 min.)
Dismantling (see fi g. 5 - 9)
1. Follow the safety measures. Disconnect pump from mains!
2. Push the two fl aps at the front side of the pump inwards.
Lift and remove upper shell (1).
Now the screen inserts on the front (8), on the right side (7) and on the
left side (5/6) work loose.
3. Remove the entire pump (10) with pump housing (12) from the lower
shell (2).
4. Loosen the 4 screws (18).
5. Pull apart pump housing (12) and motor housing (10).
6. Remove rotor assembly (15) from motor housing (10).
Take care of the O-ring (16) on the motor housing (10).
7. Clean all parts with clear water and a soft sponge.
Note! In case of massive calcination please use Meßner decalcifi er for
pumps art.-no. 168 / 009115.
