Assembling & Using Your Product
Unpack all components carefully. Please check to ensure all parts have been removed from the
Components:
Assembling:
Connect the pump cord, transformer and solar panel to the hybrid box.
(see the diagram above)
Connect fittings or spray nozzles depending on the application.
Place the pump in the water application.
Place the solar panel in direct sunlight and plug the transformer into an outlet
source.
How it works:
A – On a sunny day, the hybrid pump will be powered by the solar panel only. When
there is enough sunlight, the hybrid box will supply the pump with 100% solar energy.
B – On a cloudy day, the hybrid pump will be powered by the solar panel and
transformer. When there isn't enough sunlight, the hybrid box will supply the pump with a
mix of energy from the solar panel and transformer. If you don't want the hybrid box to
get energy from the transformer, simply unplug the transformer from the hybrid box. If
you don't have the transformer plugged into the hybrid box, then your pump won't work at
optimal level when there isn't enough sunlight.
C – At night, the hybrid pump will be powered by the transformer only. When there is no
sunlight, the hybrid box will supply the pump with 100% electric energy. If you don't want
the hybrid box to get energy from the transformer, simply unplug the transformer from the
hybrid box. If you don't have the transformer plugged into the hybrid box, then your pump
won't work when there is no sunlight.
