6. VERY IMPORTANT: Ensure that the connection to the outlet of the pump is robust and sealed VERY well. Use 15 wraps of thread-seal tape on the male thread.

7. Glue or other substances dripped inside the pump voids warranty. Do NOT fit threaded fitting to the pump then glue pipe to that fitting as glue will drip inside the pump. Glue the fitting and allow it to dry BEFORE attaching the threaded fitting.
Install the Valve-set external of the rainwater tank. NOTE! DO NOT use COPPER or GALV PIPE or POLY PIPE directly connected to this pump, warranty void if used. Ascento Group Australia www.reefe.com.au P: 1800 807 604 VER.2023.08.09...

IMPORTANT: use a barrel union connection external of the tank, after an elbow to avoid the pump “start / stop twist” causing it to come undone, to allow easy removal of the pump for servicing, if the tank is installed under eaves or other structure such as a deck, ensure that the pump can be easily removed for servicing or repairs.

THINGS TO CHECK BEFORE YOU CALL FOR SERVICE WARNING! SAFETY FIRST – TAKE PRECAUTIONS! Before servicing a pump, always shut off the power supply and then make sure you are not standing in water and that there is no risk of electrical shock. If the pump is direct-wired to the electrical circuit, contact a licensed electrician to disconnect it.

7. Mains Water does not flow when power is off to the Pump This is very unlikely due to the design of the RM1600-2 system, the possible cause for this problem would be a blockage in one of the valves, which is not a pump warranty > have the valves disassembled and cleaned by a licensed Plumber, or replaced.
