In Austria, the electrical connections must be made according to
ÖVE-EM 42, T2 (2000)/1979 § 22 based on § 2022.1. Pursuant
to this regulation it's imperative to operate pumps for swimming
pools and garden ponds exclusively via an isolating transformer.
Please ask your electrician.
In Switzerland mobile appliances which are used outdoors, must
be connected via a residual-current device.
When using the pump for domestic water supply, please adhere
to the local water and sewerage regulations. In addition observe
the regulations of DIN 1988. When connecting the pump to the
water supply system, the country-specific sanitary regulations
must be observed to prevent water not of drinking water quality
being drawn back in.
➔ If necessary, contact your sanitary expert.
Protect the pump from rain. Don't use the pump in wet or moist
area.
Before operating the pump, first make a visual check, if there is
any damage of the pump (esp. regarding power cable and plug).
A damaged pump must not be used. In case of damage, please
have the pump checked by our GARDENA Service Centre or
by an authorised electrician.
Check line voltage. Data indicated on the type plate must match
technical data of the mains supply.
Ensure that the filter lid and lid of the backflow valve are
screwed on tight during operation.
Don't use the power cable for carrying the pump or for plugging
off. Protect the power cable from heat, oil and sharp edges.
Please unplug the pump after operation and before carrying
out any maintenance works.
In order to avoid dry-running of the pump, take care that the
end of the suction hose is always submerged into the liquid.
Sand and other abrasive substances in the liquid cause
increased wear and reduce the pump's output.
The pump is not designed for continuous operation (e.g.
industrial application, continuous circulating operation).
The minimum flow rate is 90 I / h (= 1.5 I / min). Watering
accessories with lower rate must not be operated.
When using the pump for pressure intensification, the max.
permissible internal pressure of 6 bar (on the delivery side)
must not be exceeded. The to be increased delivery pressure
and the pump pressure sum up.
Example: pressure at the water tap 1.5 bar, max. pressure
of the GARDENA Pressure Tank Unit 4000 / 4 electronic plus
4.4 bar, total pressure 5.9 bar.
