• The voltage (230 Volts alternating current)

indicated on the pump rating plate must correspond

to the available mains voltage.

• The temperature of the liquid conveyed must not

exceed 35°C.

• Never attempt to lift or move the pump by stretching

the power-supply cable whilst it is plugged into the

mains.

• Make sure that the plugged electrical connections are

in an area safe from flooding and are protected from

DIN 57282 or DIN 57245 standard.

ELECTRIC SELF-PRIMING JET PUMP

• Before use it is necessary to check that the plug and

the mains connection line are not damaged.

• Unplug from the mains before performing any work on

the pump.

• Avoid directly exposing the pump to the jet of water.

• The user is responsible for complying with the local

regulations concerning assembly and safety.

• The user by taking appropriate measures (e.g. installing

an alarm, reserve pump and the like) will have to

exclude the possibility of indirect damage caused by

flooding premises due to failure of the pump.

• In the event of the pump failing, repair work may only

be carried out by the repair workshops of the technical

service. Only genuine spare parts must be used.

• It is notified that in conformity with the law on product

liability

we cannot be held responsible

for the damage caused by our appliance:

Resistance

This pump should not be used to convey inflammable,

combustible or explosive liquids.

2. Use

CAUTION! Sector of use

• For irrigation and watering of lawns, gardens,

vegetable patches, etc.

• For operating garden sprinkler systems

• For drawing water from ponds, streams, water butts

and wells, subject to fitting of suitable filter.

Acceptable liquids

In order to pump clear water (fresh water), rainwater

or non-aggressive chemical cleaning solutions.

Abrasive liquids or any other type of corrosive

liquid could damage or destroy the pump.

Operating Instructions

Generally speaking it is recommended to use a

preliminary filter and exhauster with a suction

hose, suitable and foot valve (reflux lock) to avoid

long suction times and pointlessly damaging the

pump due to stones and solid foreign bodies.

3. Before Starting

Your irrigation pump is self-priming. Before starting for

the first time, the pump has to be filled through the

delivery union with the delivery liquid until it overflows.

Suction Piping

• Fit the water suction pipe so that it points upwards

towards the pump. Absolutely avoid fitting the suction

pipe higher than the pump (formation of air bubbles in

the suction pipe).

• The suction and delivery piping must be fitted so as

not to be able to apply any mechanical pressure on

the pump.

• The suction valve should be situated at least 30 cm.

below the bottom water level.

• Suction pipes that are not airtight suck in air obstructing

suction of the water.

Delivery Piping

During suction, the cut-off parts (sprayers, valves, etc.)

situated in the delivery piping have to be fully open so

that the air in the suction pipe can be freely expelled.

4. Maintenance Instructions

The irrigation pump is entirely maintenance-free.

Should the pump become blocked, first try rinsing. Should

it turn out that the blockage is due to the inefficiency or

complete absence of the filters, dismantle the hydraulic

section and thoroughly rinse the interior, carefully

reassemble and refit the filters correctly before turning

back on.

• If there is a risk of frost, the pump has to be emptied

completely.

• When the pump is not going to be used for a long time,

for instance in the winter period, it is recommended

to rinse out the pump thoroughly with water, empty it

completely and store it in a dry place.

• Before restarting, check whether the pump works freely

by briefly connecting and disconnecting it.

• Then fill the pump again with the delivery liquid and

set it up for use.

CAUTION!

In order to work, the pump must always be filled

with the delivery liquid until it overflows!

Caution: The pump must never run dry. The

manufacturer’s warranty is null and void in the

event of damage to the pump caused by its running

dry.

Check that the pump is airtight, in fact not airtight

pipes draw in air preventing the pump from

working properly.

If it is not possibile to eliminate the trouble, please call our service department.

To avoid damage during transport, please ship in the ORIGINAL PACKING.
