Manual AquaForte Floating Skimmer
This information belongs exclusively to and is inextricably linked to the AquaForte oating skimmer. Without written
permission it is not permitted to make any changes to the pump or the accompanying documentation. The manual
and documentation must be kept with the pump. Only people with proven expertise can work on the pump. The
seller is not liable for damage caused by the use and / or application of the goods in violation of the instructions and
CE safety conditions of the producer and / or supplier. The buyer has to be familiar with these instructions. The
intellectual property on drawings, models, molds, shapes, the CE marking and everything else that relates to the
execution of the assignment (remains) vested in the seller.
Warning:
- Do not connect to any voltage other than that shown on the rating label of the pump.
- Do not use with water above 35°C
- The supply cord cannot be replaced. If the cord is damaged the appliance should be scrapped.
- To protect against the risk of electrical shock, do not immerse the plug in water or other liquid.
- This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental
capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction
concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety. Children should be supervised to ensure
that they do not play with the appliance.
Note: for outdoor use, the power socket must be installed with the leakage current protecting device, and the
leakage current shall not exceed 3,5mA.
Caution:
Always disconnect from electrical outlet before cleaning, maintenance and handling the pump. Don't operate
without water. Do not lift the pump by holding the power cord. Use the pump only in freshwater.
Please use the pump only when it is
submerged in water. Do not use the pump in swimming pools!
Operation:
A clogged or dirty intake screen will greatly reduce performance. Do not let the pump run when not submerged in
water. Always submerge the pump rst and then plug in the power cable. In the beginning it probably can't pump
water because there can be air in the pump and the pipe system. Do not worry about this, pull out the power cable
and insert it again a few times, it will work normally.
Calcium/Limescale problems
When you nd calcium/limescale deposits inside the motor house this implicates that the pumps becomes too warm
during use! Calcium/lime scale expands above temperatures of 55°C. With su cient ow, the pump is water cooled
and cannot reach these temperatures. If, however, the head pressure is too big (too small pipe system, maximum
pump head (pressure loss) too big, etc) the ow will be reduced which causes insu cient cooling and by this, calcium
deposits. In a worst case scenario the calcium/timescale layer will get so thick that it blocks the rotor and the motor
will burn out. You can remove calcium/lime scale deposits with commercial de-scaling products or cleaning vinegar.
DAMAGE CAUSED BY CALCIUM/ LIME SCALE IS
NOT COVERED BY WARRANTY!
