7. Placement of the Dirt Water Pump
• Attach a sufficiently strong, water-tight rope to the carry handle (1) to lower the dirt water pump, e.g. into a well.
The dirt water pump must never be held or attached by the mains cable or the float switch! This may
damage the mains cable; there is danger to life from electric shock! The dirt water pump also must not be
attached via the hose.
Fasten the rope to a suitable holder.
• To connect the hose used by you to the dirt water pump, you may use the enclosed L-shaped pipe piece and the
hose connection.
Observe that the diameter of the hose used and the required connections are designed for such contamina-
tions.
• There is a cable clamp (2) on the side of the carry handle (1). It serves to fasten the cable to the float switch.
The activation/deactivation water level will later result from the position in which the float switch cable is attached.
Fasten the cable to the float switch very carefully and set the correct cable length for your application site.
8. Commissioning
• After lowering the dirt water pump into the well, etc. by a rope and fastening the rope accordingly, plug the mains
plug into a properly installed protective ground mains socket. This must be an IP44 mains socket for operation in
the outdoor area.
The mains plug must only be plugged into the mains socket when dry. There is danger to life from electric
shock otherwise!
• When the float switch is placed correctly, the dirt water pump will switch on and start taking in water and transporting
it through the exit opening.
If no water is conveyed, there is still air in the dirt water pump and the hose. You may be able to accelerate the
intake process if you fill water into the hose or move the dirt water pump slightly back and forth or plug the mains
plug in/out.
• The dirt water pump switches off automatically if the float switch drops.
The dirt water pump can also be operated manually by moving the cable of the float switch to the cable
clamp accordingly.
The dirt water pump pressure pump must not be operated unsupervised then, because the dirt water pump
will not switch off if there is no water, which would damage the pump.
