INTRODUCTION Thank you for purchasing this CLARKE Submersible Water Pump. This pump is designed for pumping clean water or water containing solids in suspension. It is not designed for pumping slurry, sludge, mud or heavily polluted water, or any water containing chemicals or other acidic contaminants including salt water.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS 1. These pumps are designed to pump WATER ONLY. Never use for pumping flammable liquids or chemicals. 2. Never run the pump dry. 3. An approved Residual Current Device (RCD) which has a tripping current of less than 30mA must be used when pumping from ponds or swimming pools.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS nnect the mains lead to a suitable 110 Volt (50Hz) electrical supply through an approved plug or a suitably fused isolator switch, or to a suitable portable 110 volt transformer. We recommend that this pump is fitted with a Residual Current Device (RCD). If the pump is to be connected to an outdoor electrical supply, ensure both the plug and the socket are of a British Standard approved waterproo design.
