Only entrust an authorised expert to carry out the electrical connection in accordance with the German
EVU and VDE. VDE 0100 Part 702 is valid for all installations. Refer to the type plate for all capacity
parameters. Only perform any work on the unit when isolated!
Start-up
Attention! Never operate the unit without filter basket or without water!

Installation

Disconnect the power supply, then secure the unit to prevent unintentional switching on. Only use the
unit in its horizontal position and ensure stable installation on a firm ground. The unit must be
positioned below the water surface level and can be placed in (submerged) or outside of the pond
(dry).
Dry installation
Open the strainer casings, remove the pump, and fit the suction and pressure line. The installation
accessories in the form of stepped hose connection, seals and hose clips are part of the kit.
Connection to the water filter
Fasten hose (32/40/50 mm) on the stepped hose connection and, if necessary, fasten with the hose
clip, plug stepped hose connection into the pump outlet, tighten the union nut, then connect the other
end of the hose to the water filter.
Connection to the skimmer
Plug the union nut over the stepped hose connection, fasten the hose to the skimmer filter on the
stepped hose connection, insert he latter into the inlet regulator of the strainer casing, then fasten
union nut.
Attention! If you operate the pump in the strainer casing when submerged, ensure that the
skimmer is always connected to the inlet regulator or that the inlet regulator is completely
closed ("0" position)!
The power supply must be disconnected to switch off the unit.
Cleaning
Attention! Always disconnect the power supply prior to starting cleaning and maintenance
work!
Remove the hoses from the unit. Press in the engagement points on both sides of the outlet opening to
the water filter and open the strainer casing, remove the pump from the strainer casing, rotate the
pump housing, then clean the impeller vanes using a brush.
Clean strainer casings, hose connections using clear water and a brush. After cleaning, fit the unit in
the reverse order.
Storage/Over-wintering
The unit is frost resistant to minus 20 °C. Should you store the unit outside of the pond, clean it
thoroughly and check it for damage, then store immersed in water. Do not immerse the power plug in
the water!

Dispose of the unit in accordance with the national legal regulations.
