misuse. The user / operator and not the
manufacturer will be liable for any damage or injuries
of any kind caused as a result of this.
Please note that our equipment has not been
designed for use in commercial, trade or industrial
applications. Our warranty will be voided if the
machine is used in commercial, trade or industrial
businesses or for equivalent purposes.

5. Before putting the equipment into
operation
5.1. Assembly (Figs. 3 and 4)
1. Screw the hose connection (9) onto the
equipment.
2. Connect the pressure hose (6) and the draw-off
hose (8) to the distributor (7). Please make sure
that the draw-off hose (8) is mounted on the side
of the stopcock (10).
3. Now connect the pressure hose (6) to the hose
connection (9) of the equipment.
5.2 Inserting the pump into the rain barrel (Fig. 5)
1. Place the equipment in the rain barrel.
2. Secure the distributor to the rim of the rain barrel.
To do so, twist the eccentrically mounted rubber
fasteners (A) such that the distributor (7) can be
clamped to the rim of the rain barrel.
Note!
When installing, never hang the equipment by the
discharge line or by the power cable. The equipment
must be hung up with the provided carry handle or it
must rest on the bottom of the shaft. To ensure that
the equipment works properly, the bottom of the shaft
always must be free of sludge and other
accumulations of dirt. If the water level is too low, the
sludge in the shaft can quickly dry out and hinder the
equipment from starting. It is necessary therefore to
check the equipment regularly (carry out trial start-
ups).
Note:
The pump shaft should measure at least
40 x 40 x 50 cm so that the floating switch can move
freely.
5.3 Mains connection
The equipment you have purchased comes with an
earthing-pin plug. The equipment is designed for
connection to a socket outlet with earthing contact for
230 V ~ 50 Hz. Make sure that the socket-outlet is
sufficiently fused (at least 6 A) and in good working
order. Insert the power plug in the socket-outlet and
the equipment is ready for operation.
Important!
To rule out danger, this work must be left strictly to a
specialist electrician or Customer Service.
6. Operation
You can put the equipment into operation after you
have thoroughly read the installation and operating
instructions. Pay attention to the following points:
Make sure that the equipment is set up securely.
Check that the discharge line is fitted correctly.
Make sure that the electrical connection is 230 V
~ 50 Hz.
Check that the electrical socket-outlet is in good
working order.
Make sure that no moisture or water can ever
reach the power connection.
Make sure that the equipment does not run dry.
To withdraw water, open the stopcock (10).
To switch off the equipment, pull the power plug
out of the socket outlet.
Setting the ON/OFF switching point:
The ON/OFF switching point of the floating switch can
be infinitely adjusted. This is done by moving the
floating switch cable in the cable holder (Fig.
6).Check the following points before putting the
equipment into operation:
The floating switch must be fitted so that the
switching point height: ON and the switch point
height: OFF can be reached easily and with little
force. Check this by placing the equipment in a
container filled with water and carefully raising
and lowering the floating switch with your hand.
