DO NOT carry the pump by its electrical cable, or outlet pipe. Use the handle only.
&
When not in use switch pump off, remove plug from power supply. Rinse pump, drain out any water and store in a frost free, safe location.
!
WARNING! DO NOT remove the label “Test Made” from the top of the pump and DO NOT tamper with or remove the test screw. To do so
F
will invalidate the warranty (fig. 2).
WARNING! DO NOT allow uncontrolled discharge of contaminated water thus polluting environment.

INTRODUCTION & SPECIFICATIONS
This range of pumps are designed for pumping clean cold or warm water, (NOT exceeding 35
pools, drains. Pumping out flooded basements, boats etc. Model SWP20A has an adjustable automatic float switch which will turn the pump on as water levels rise
and switch off when the level falls.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
F
WARNING! Ensure you read, understand and apply safety instructions.
3.1.
Fit appropriate discharge pipe to pump outlet and secure with clip. Ensure the diameter of the discharge pipe is same
p
as or greater than the outlet diameter as a smaller pipe will adversely effect the pump flow rate.
3.2.
Position pump in the water accordingly, and place the outlet pipe securely in the discharge receptacle or area.
We recommend that the pump is sunk with its discharge outlet facing up to release any trapped air.
3.3.
Plug the pump into the electrical mains supply and switch on.
a) Model SWP20 will start to operate once the power is switched on and stop when switched off.
b) Model SWP20A has a float (fig 3.1) which will automatically turn pump on as the level of water rises (A). As water
level lowers, the float will automatically switch the pump off as it reaches the minimum height (B). Float may be adjusted
by shortening or lengthening the cable. The pump will switch on if the water level is up to or above the maximum length
of the float cable. To function correctly the float must move freely. Ensure the float can do so and that the cable is not
restricted.
3.4.
The water into which the pump is placed will act as the motor cooling agent. For this reason the pump
must remain submerged at all times. Should the pump have to be used in shallow water, DO NOT
operate for more than 10 minutes. Failure to follow this rule will damage the unit and will invalidate
your warranty. If for any reason the motor should overheat a thermal circuit breaker will automatically
activate and stop the pump. If this happens, switch the mains power off and unplug. Check reason for
overheating and remedy the problem. Should the pump not be switched off, the motor will remain
off for approximately 5 minutes, and when cooled will automatically switch itself on again.
NOTE: See figure 4 to determine minimum clearance required if using automatic pump in a restricted area i.e. well, etc.

MAINTENANCE
F
WARNING! With the exception listed below, all pump, float and electrical cable service maintenance and repair must only be undertaken by an
authorised service agent. Failure to observe this rule may be dangerous and will invalidate your warranty.

WARNING! Ensure the pump is disconnected from the mains power supply before attempting any service or maintenance.

4.1
Keep all parts of the pump clean. Rinse, drain and allow to dry before storing.
4.2.
Regularly check the water inlet at the base of the pump to ensure there are no blockages. To access the impeller carefully undo the base screws and
remove base and clean the impeller, replace the base ensuring that the “O” - ring is correctly located. DO NOT dismantle any other part of the unit.
Note: The pump has a self lubricating oil-less motor, but a small amount of sealant is used to seal the unit. Should the pump seal be damaged the
sealant may leak and appear as a oily film on the surface of the water. The sealant is harmless to humans, but may effect pond life. In such an
eventuality, switch the pump off, remove it from the water and clear the oily film. Contact your local Sealey service agent for pump repair.
