1. SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS:
WARNINGS
– The appliance described in this manual is specially designed for the pre-filtering and recirculation of water in
swimming pools, with clean water at temperatures that do not exceed 35ºC.
– This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental
capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction con-
cerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety. Children should be supervised to ensure
that they do not play with the appliance.
– This appliance can be used by children aged from 8 years and above and persons with reduced physical, senso-
ry or mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge if they have been given supervision or instruction
concerning use of the appliance in a safe way and understand the hazards involved. Children must not play with
this appliance. Cleaning and maintenance must not be carried out by children without supervision
– The pump may only be assembled and installed in pools compliant with standards IEC/HD 60364-7-702 and
required national rules. The installation should follow standard IEC/HD 60364-7-702 and required national rules
for swimming pools. Consult your local dealer for more information.
– If a self-priming pump is to be fitted above the water level, the pressure differential to the pump suction pipe
should not be higher than 0.015 MPa (1.5 mH2O). Ensure that the suction pipe is as short as possible as a longer
pipe would increase suction time and the installation's load losses.
– The pump is intended to be used while fastened to a support or while secured in a specific location in a hori-
zontal position.
– Place a sump with an adequate outlet for the liquid where flooding is likely to occur.
– The pump cannot be installed in Zone 0 (Z0) or Zone 1 (Z1). To see drawings, refer to page 7/8.
– See the maximum total head (H max), in meters. See page 14.
– The unit should be connected to an alternating current supply (see data on the pump´s plate) with an earth
connection, protected by a residual current device (RCD) with a rated residual operating current that does not
exceed 30 mA.
– A disconnector must be fitted to the fixed electrical installation in accordance to the installation regulations.
– Do not submerge the device in water or mud.
– Some pump components have a finite life. All components should be inspected frequently and replaced if
found to be worn, damaged, broken, cracked or missing.
– Risk of Electric Shock. Hazardous voltage. Can shock, burn, or cause death. To reduce the risk of electric shock,
do NOT use an extension cord to connect unit to electric supply. Provide a properly located outlet. It is required
that licensed electricians do all electrical wiring. All electrical wiring MUST be in conformance with applicable local
and national codes and regulations. Before working on pump or motor, disconnect motor wiring.
– To reduce the risk of electric shock replace damaged cord immediately. Do NOT bury cord. Locate cord to
prevent abuse from lawn mowers, hedge trimmers and other equipment.
– Connect only to a grounding type receptacle protected by a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI). Contact a
licensed electrician if you cannot verify that the receptacle is protected by a GFCI.
– Failure to bond pump to pool structure will increase risk for electrocution and could result in injury or death. To reduce
the risk of electric shock, see installation instructions and consult a professional electrician on how to bond pump.
– Suction Entrapment Hazard. Entrapment in suction outlets and/or suction outlet covers, which are damaged, bro-
ken, cracked, missing, or unsecured can cause severe injury and/or death due to the following entrapment hazards:
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 dam-
aged, broken, cracked, missing, or not securely attached can result in a limb becoming entrapped.
Body Suction Entrapment- A pressure applied to a large portion of the body or limbs can result in an entrapment.
Mechanical Entrapment- There is potential for jewelry, swimsuits, hair decorations, fingers, toes, or knuck-
les to be caught in an opening of a suction outlet cover resulting in mechanical entrapment.
