Controls Before Operational Start-Up; Operation; Mains Connection; Switching On And Off - Parkside PTPK 400 B1 Translation Of The Original Instructions

The cord (12) contained in the delivery
contents may be used to suspend and/or
extract the pump.
The pump shaft should have the dimen-
sions 40 x 40 x 50 cm at least, so that the
fl oat switch can move freely.
Fix the nylon rope (12) onto the carrying
handle (1).
Ensure that the equipment is
not hung up or held by the
mains cable. There is a risk of elec-
tric shock from damaged mains ca-
bles.
Note that, over time, dirt and sand
may collect on the bottom of the
shaft, which could damage the pump.
We recommend placing the pump on a
brick or a grid.
If the water level is too low, the silt in the
shaft can quickly dry out and impede the
pump when warming up.
Controls before
operational start-up
• Check that the fl oat switch is working
(see chapter: "Operation").
• Check that the pump is resting on the
pit base.
• Check that the pressure line has been
attached properly
• Check the proper status of the electri-
cal plug socket and make sure that the
plug socket is suffi ciently fused (at least
6 A). Insert the pump plug into the plug
socket and the pump is ready for op-
eration.
• Make sure that moisture or water never
come in contact with the mains connec-
tion.There is a risk of electrocution.
• The minimum water level on initial start-
up must be 50 mm.

Operation

Mains connection

The submersible water pump acquired by
you is already provided with an grounded
plug. The equipment is designed for con-
nection to an earthed wall socket with a
residual current operated device (RCD
switch) at 230 V ~ 50 Hz.
Only start to operate the device
after all the above conditions have
been observed.

Switching on and off

1. Insert the plug in the socket. The pump
starts working immediately.
The pump immediately starts running
when the swimming switch is in the
correct position (see „Automatic opera-
tion" and „Manual operation").
2. To switch off, withdraw the plug from
the socket. The pump stops.
If the water level is too low, the
fl oat switch will automatically
switch off the pump.
Supervise the appliance while it is
in operation in order to be immedi-
ately aware if the automatic cut-out
operates or the pump runs dry, to
limit any damage to a minimum.

Automatic mode

In automatic mode, the fl oat switch (5) au-
tomatically switches the pump on or off.
