General safety advice / Preparing for use Do not use the device if there are people in the water. [. . . ] Otherwise damage to the device could occur. Note: You can suspend the pump safely using the supplied rope 12 . Loop the rope 12 around the handle 1 and fasten it with a double knot. Otherwise damage to the device could occur. Dirt and sand may build up over time on the bottom or supporting surface, which could damage the pump. If the water level in the chamber is too low, any sludge present could quickly dry out and prevent the pump from starting. note: The submersible pump has an automatic air bleed mechanism 2 . This mechanism allows any air to escape from the device as soon as the device is submerged in water. If the submersible pump is not completely submerged in water during operation, then water may escape from the air bleed mechanism 2 . This does not indicate that the device is defective. Do not screw off the air bleed mechanism 2 , otherwise damage to the device may occur. Note: The float switch 8 is set up to allow the pump to be used immediately. In the case of a permanent installation, the float switch 8 must be checked regularly (at least every three months) to see that it is working properly. The on and off switching point of the float switch 8 can be set by altering the position of the float switch 8 in the float switch pivot clip 9 (see Fig. The following principles apply here: The longer the length of the cable of the float switch 8 from the float switch pivot clip 9 to the float, the higher the on and off switching point will be. Position the float switch 8 so that the "ON" and "OFF" switch point level is achieved easily and with little force. Stand the pump in water in a vessel, then carefully raise the float switch 8 by hand and then let it fall again. check that the pump switches on and off. To bring the submersible pump into use, plug the mains plug into a suitable mains socket. Depending on the set switch point level and the water level, the float switch 8 switches automatically on or off as appropriate. Note: Ensure that the distance between the float switch head and the float switch pivot clip 9 is not too short. If the distance is too short, the switch may not work properly. [. . . ] Note: Any other tasks on the pump, in particular opening the pump, must be carried out by an electrician or similar expert.
