Only use the device in private households.
Intended use:
For notes on functional principle, see chapter Operation.
Danger of death and risk of damage when pumping explosive, flammable or unsuitable substances!
Flammable or explosive substances may ignite or explode.
Unsuitable substances can damage the pump.
Do not pump explosive, flammable or corrosive liquids or gases (e.g. fuels, petroleum, nitro thinner) and do not pump fats, oils, salt water or waste water from sanitary facilities or water that has a lower flowing ability than clean water.
Permissible feed fluids:
ATTENTION
Risk of damage due to frost!
Operation during frost may damage the device. An incompletely emptied device can be damaged by frost.
Do not operate the device during frost.
Protect the device from frost.
ATTENTION
Risk of damage during continuous operation!
The device is not suitable for continuous operation.
Do not operate the device continuously for long periods (e.g. continuous circulation operation in ponds) or as a stationary installation (e.g. as a water lifting system, fountain pump).
Note
The manufacturer accepts no liability for possible damage caused by improper use or incorrect operation.
ATTENTION
Only use original accessories and original spare parts. They ensure that the appliance will run fault-free and safely.
Information on accessories and spare parts can be found at www.kaercher.com.
The scope of delivery for the appliance is shown on the packaging. Check the contents for completeness when unpacking. If any accessories are missing or in the event of any shipping damage, please notify your dealer.

*Not included in the scope of delivery.
Risk of electric shock and risk of injury!
The device contains electrical and mechanical components.
Always disconnect the device from the power supply before assembling, disassembling or cleaning.
Note
The shorter the hose length and larger the hose diameter, the higher the pump capacity.
To avoid clogging the pump, use a pre-filter for hose diameters smaller than 1 ¼'.
The pump connection is equipped with a plug-in system (Quick-Connect).
The pipe union with pump connecting piece G 1 ½ and the G 1 threaded connection are supplied unassembled with the device.
Note
Hoses with a diameter of 1', 1 ¼' and 1 ½' can be connected to the pump connecting piece G 1 ½.
A sufficiently large hose diameter must be selected and the pump connecting piece G 1 ½ must be shortened according to the grooves so that the required particle size can be used. A large hose diameter is also recommended for smaller particle sizes to allow a high flow volume.
Connect hose to pump if using a 1', 1 ¼' or 1 ½' hose:
Connect hose to pump if using a ¾' or 1' hose:
Setting up / immersing the pump:
Note
The suction area must not be blocked by contamination. If the ground is muddy, place the pump on a brick or something similar. Make sure that the pump is horizontal. Do not carry the pump using the cable or hose.
Danger of death from electric shock.
Danger of death from electric shock if live parts are touched.
During operation, do not touch the rope attached to the carrying handle or any objects that are in contact with the pumped liquid (e.g. pipelines protruding into the pumped liquid, railings) and do not reach into the pumped liquid.
Note
Folding out the feet is not absolutely necessary, but it does increase the pump capacity. 2. Plug the mains plug into a mains socket.
Note
In automatic mode, the float switch controls the pumping process automatically.
The pump switches on as soon as the float switch has reached the switch-on height caused by the rising fluid level.
The pump switches off as soon as the float switch has reached the switch-off height caused by the sinking fluid level.
The float switch must be able to move freely.

Min / Max | SP 9.000 Flat | SP 9.500 Dirt | SP 11.000 Dirt |
Switch-on height cm* | 36 / 44 | 43 / 50 | 43 / 50 |
Switch-off height cm* | 15 / 24 | 18 / 30 | 18 / 30 |
* The switching heights vary depending on the position of the float switch.
Note
In manual operation, the pump stays switched on continuously. For the pump to suction itself in manual mode, the fluid level must be at least 60 mm (SP 9.500 Dirt and SP 11.000 Dirt) or 7 mm (SP 9.000 Flat).
Note
The pump can pump up to a residual fluid height of 25 mm (SP 9.500 Dirt and SP 11.000 Dirt) or 1 mm (SP 9.000 Flat).
The specified residual fluid heights are only achieved in manual operation.
The float switch must be able to move freely.
Note
By folding in the feet, flat suction of the fluid up to 1 mm residual fluid height is possible in manual operation.
ATTENTION
Risk of damage from dry running!
Dry running leads to increased wear on the pump.
Do not leave the pump unattended in manual operation. In case of dry running, immediately pull the mains plug out of the socket.
ATTENTION
Risk of damage!
Risk of damage due to dried soiling or additives.
Rinse and clean the device immediately after each use.
Risk of electric shock and risk of injury!
The device contains electrical and mechanical components.
Cleaning and user maintenance may not be carried out by children.

Malfunctions often have simple causes that you can remedy yourself using the following overview. When in doubt, or in the case of malfunctions not mentioned here, please contact your authorised Customer Service.
Fault | Cause | Rectification |
The device is running but not delivering | Air is in the pump. |
|
Dirt particles block the suction area. |
| |
The fluid level is too low (manual operation), see chapter Technical data. |
| |
The device does not start or stops during operation | The power supply is disconnected. |
|
The thermal protection switch has switched off the pump because of overheating. |
| |
Dirt particles are trapped in the suction area. |
| |
The float switch switches the pump off. |
| |
The unit capacity drops or is too low | The suction area is clogged. |
|
The delivery rate of the pump depends on the delivery head and the connected periphery. |
| |
The cross-section on the pressure side is narrowed, e.g. due to the valve/ball tap not being fully open. |
| |
The pressure side hose is kinked. |
| |
Quick-Connect cannot be opened | The Quick-Connect plug system is blocked by contamination. |
