ATTENTION: do not lubricate the O-ring gasket of the transparent cover with oil or grease.
‐
Use only water and neutral soap to clean the transparent cover, do not use solvents.
‐
Periodically inspect and clean the pump filter.
With the pump under the water level, close the gate valves on suction and delivery before removing the filter cover.
The pumps may contain small quantities of residual water from testing. We advise flushing them briefly with clean water before their
final installation.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
Use is allowed only if the electric system is in possession of safety precautions in accordance with the regulations in force in the
country where the product is installed (for Italy CEI 64/2).
All repair and maintenance work must be carried out only after having disconnected the pump from the power supply mains.
RISKS LINKED TO HEATING
When the machine is operating, touch only the parts for settings and controls (operator keyboard): the other parts can reach
temperatures higher than 40°C.
Keep inflammable materials far away from the machine. Run the machine in ventilated environments.
TYPES OF PUMPED LIQUIDS ALLOWED
The machine has been designed and made for pumping fresh or salt water from swimming pools, clean or slightly dirty, with a
limited content of fibres and small suspended solid particles.
The water temperature must not be higher than 40°C / 105°F.
DO NOT USE THE PUMP WITH LIQUIDS WITH DIFFERENT CHARACTERISTICS!
Use of the pump with a concentrated amount of sand can cause early wear and decreased pump performance.
Do not add swimming pool chemicals (such as disinfectants, water treatment substances, etc.) directly to the pump or in front of
the pump inlet: undiluted chemicals are aggressive and can damage the pump, while also voiding the guarantee.
SPECIFIC RISKS FOR SWIMMING POOLS, BATHING POOLS AND SIMILAR
WARNING
are damaged, broken, cracked, missing, or unsecured cause severe injury and/or death due to the following entrapment
hazards (symbols complements of APSP):
Hair Entrapment - Hair can become entangled in suction outlet cover.
Limb Entrapment - A limb inserted into an opening of a suction outlet sump or suction outlet cover that is damaged, broken, cracked,
missing, or not securely attached can result in a mechanical bind or swelling of the limb.
Body Suction Entrapment - A differential pressure applied to a large portion of the body or limbs can result in an entrapment.
Evisceration/ Disembowelment - A negative pressure applied directly to the intestines through an unprotected suction outlet
sump or suction outlet cover which is damaged, broken, cracked, missing, or unsecured can result in evisceration/disembowelment.
Mechanical Entrapment - There is potential for jewelry, swimsuits, hair decorations, fingers, toes, or knuckles to be caught in an
opening of a suction outlet cover resulting in mechanical entrapment.
Note: See section 1.3 for SVRS-related notes.
This is a real risk: in the USA there were 74 documented cases of entrapment and evisceration between 1990 and 2004 (Source:
CPSC, USA 2005).
It is therefore obligatory and indispensable to respect all the applicable national and local regulations.
Particular care must be taken in checking periodically that the grids on the suction openings are intact and clean.
Over time, the grids become deteriorated due to age, contact with water and exposure to the sun and to atmospheric agents: they
must be checked regularly and with the greatest care, immediately evacuating people from the area if damage is found.
