9. NEVER use for pumping flammable liquids or corrosive chemicals. This pump is designed to pump clean water only. 11. ALWAYS have the pump serviced by your local Clarke dealer, using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure the safety of the pump is maintained.
INSTALLATION Because of the number of possible installations, no accessories are supplied with your pump, however accessories are available from your nearest Clarke dealer. See the suggested list on page 13.

FITTING THE CABLE Do not attempt electrical installation work if you are in any doubt as to how it should be done correctly. Consult a qualified electrician. The pump must be wired according to the diagram, after removing the cover plate, ensuring the following principles are observed: •...

Earth (Green and Yellow) Live Neutral (Brown) (Blue) Ensure that the outer sheath of the cable is firmly held by the clamp • Before switching the product on, make sure that the voltage of your electricity supply is the same as that indicated on the rating plate.
The performance of your pump will be affected by the diameter of the inlet pipe - any restriction will greatly reduce the flow. We recommend that you always use a pipe diameter at least equal to, or greater than the diameter of the pump connections.
PRIMING THE PUMP Before pumping, you must completely fill the suction side with water to prime the pump which is carried out as follows:- 1. With all inlet pipes/hoses and foot valve in position, but no outlet hose connected, pour water into the outlet port until all the air is expelled.
1. Do not allow the pump to run dry, otherwise the seal between the pump and motor may be damaged. If a leak occurs at this point, allowing water to pass from the pump to the motor, take the pump to your Clarke dealer for overhaul.
Always keep the pump in a clean condition, checking regularly for loose bolts or a damaged power cable etc. The pump should not be taken apart by the user in the case of overhaul being required, but should be taken to your nearest Clarke dealer for specialist repair. AFTER USE After use, and if the pump will not be used over the winter period, or whenever there is danger of freezing, always drain the pump body.
