The equipment is to be used only for its prescribed purpose. Any other use is deemed to be a case of misuse. The user / operator and not the manufacturer will be liable for any damage or injuries of any kind caused as a result of this.

Please note that our equipment has not been designed for use in commercial, trade or industrial applications. Our warranty will be voided if the machine is used in commercial, trade or industrial businesses or for equivalent purposes.

Technical data

The equipment is supplied without batteries and without a charger and is allowed to be used only with the lithium-ion batteries (two batteries) of the Power-X-Change series!

The lithium-ion batteries of the Power-X-Change series are allowed to be charged only with the Power-X charger.

Before using the equipment

The equipment is supplied without batteries and without a charger.
As a basic principle, we recommend the use of a preliminary filter and a suction set with suction hose, intake cage and non-return valve, in order to prevent long priming periods and unnecessary damage to the pump as a result of stones and solid foreign bodies.

Connecting the intake line

• Fasten the suction hose (at least approx. 19 mm (¾") plastic hose with spiral reinforcement) to the suction connection approx. 42 mm (R1 ¼ male thread) of the equipment either directly or via a threaded nipple.
• Use the connection adapter (8) to reduce the thread of the suction connection to approx. 33.3 mm (R1 male thread).
• The suction hose used should be equipped with an intake valve. If the intake valve cannot be used, a non-return valve should be installed in the intake line.
• Position the intake line so that it rises from the water withdrawal point to the equipment. Avoid positioning the intake line higher than the pump, as this would delay the escape of air bubbles from the intake line and impede the priming process.
• Install the intake and discharge lines in such a way that they do not exert any mechanical pressure on the equipment.
• The intake valve should be low enough in the water to ensure that if the water level falls, the unit will not run dry.
• A leaking intake line will draw in air and therefore not draw in any water.
• Prevent the intake of foreign bodies (sand, etc.). If necessary, install a coarse filter for this purpose.

Connecting the discharge line

• The discharge line (min. approx. 19 mm (3/4")) must be connected to the female thread discharge line (approx. 33.3 mm (R1 female thread)) connector of the equipment either directly or with the aid of a threaded nipple.
• You can also use a pressure hose of approx. 13 mm (1/2") with the relevant couplings. The pump rate is reduced when using the smaller discharge line.
• During the priming process, the shut-off devices present in the discharge line (spray nozzles, valves, etc.) must be completely open so that the air in the intake line can escape freely.

Fitting the battery

(Fig. 2)
Open the battery cover.
Press the side pushlock button of the battery pack as shown in Fig. 2 and push the battery pack into the mount provided. When the battery is positioned as in Fig. 2, make sure that the pushlock button latches in place! To remove the battery pack, proceed in reverse order.

Use only batteries which are charged to the same level. Never combine full and half-full batteries. Always charge the two batteries simultaneously. The equipment's operating time depends on the battery with the lower charge level. The two batteries must always be fully charged before use.

Charging the battery

(Figure 3)

1. Take the battery pack out of the equipment. Do this by pressing the pushlock button.
2. Check that your mains voltage is the same as that marked on the rating plate of the battery charger. Insert the power plug of the charger (9) into the socket outlet. The green LED will then begin to flash.
3. Insert the battery pack (8) into the battery charger (9).
4. In the section entitled „Charger indicator" you will find a table with an explanation of the LED indicator on the charger.

The battery pack can become a little warm during the charging. This is normal.

If the battery pack fails to charge, check:

• whether there is voltage at the socket outlet
• whether there is good contact at the charging contacts

If the battery pack still fails to charge, send

• the charging unit
• and the battery pack

to our customer service center.

To ensure that items are properly packaged and delivered when you send them to us, please contact our customer service or the point of sale at which the equipment was purchased.

When shipping or disposing of batteries and cordless tools, always ensure that they are packed individually in plastic bags to prevent short circuits and fires.

To ensure that the battery pack provides long service, you should take care to recharge it promptly. You must recharge the battery pack when you notice that the performance of the device drops. Never allow the battery pack to become fully discharged. This will cause it to develop a defect.

Battery capacity indicator

(Fig. 4)
Press the button for the battery capacity indicator (Item A). The battery capacity indicator (Item B) shows the charge status of the battery using 3 LEDs.

All 3 LEDs are lit:
The battery is fully charged.

2 or 1 LED(s) are lit:
The battery has an adequate remaining charge.

1 LED flashes:
The battery is empty, recharge the battery.

All LEDs blink:
The battery temperature is too low. Remove the battery from the equipment, keep it at room temperature for one day. If the fault reoccurs, this means that the rechargeable battery has undergone exhaustive discharge and is defective. Remove the battery from the equipment. Never use or charge a defective battery.

Operation

On/Off/Unit setting switch

(Fig. 1/Item 5)
Switch position 0: Off
Switch position I: Pump setting 1
Switch position II: Pump setting 2

Selecting pump setting 2 increases the maximum delivery pressure, but it reduces the maximum operating time of the battery as a result.

Using for the first time

• Install the equipment on a solid and level surface.
• Fill the pump housing with water via the water filler screw (3). Filling the intake line will accelerate the priming process.
• All the shut-off devices in the discharge line (spray nozzle, valves etc.) must be fully opened during intake in order to permit all air to escape from the intake line.
• The intake process starts automatically after you have pressed the On/Off/Pump setting switch (5). Water can be suctioned in for up to 5 minutes (maximum suction height).
• If the pump is removed after use, it is essential that it is filled with water again the next time it is connected and started.

Switch the pump off again after use by pressing the On/Off/Pump setting switch (5) again and allow the pump to cool down.

Cleaning/maintenance and ordering spare parts

The equipment almost completely maintenance free. In order to ensure a long service life, however, we recommend regular checks and product care.

Always remove the batteries before starting any cleaning work.

Maintenance

• If the equipment becomes clogged, connect the discharge line to the water line and disconnect the intake line. Open the water line. Switch on the equipment several times for approx. two seconds. This should resolve the majority of clog-related problems.
• There are no other parts inside the equipment which require maintenance.
