Getting Started - Ribimex Ribiland PRPVC249/1 Manual De Instrucciones Y Mantenimiento

If the pump is not in good condition, do not use it. Have it repaired by an authorized centre.
4. If an extension is used, ensure that it is officially approved. Keep it well away from sharp edges,
heat sources and combustibles.
5. The plug-in connector for the extension should be of the 2 pole + earth type of 10-16A/250V, in
accordance with CEE standards. The wire section in the cable should be equal to or greater than 1mm
The cable should not be lighter than cables of H05 RN-F type.
6. When disconnecting the power cable from the socket, always grip the plug itself and not the cable.
7. If the pump is used for emptying a pond, it should not be used when there are people in the pond.
8. When the pump is immersed, handling should not be carried out using the power cable, but using a
device (for ex. a rope) connected to the carrying handle.
9. Do not use power cable or float switch cable for carrying or hanging up the pump.
IV. GETTING STARTED
Before any intervention on product, ensure that product is disconnected form its
power source.
4.1- Unpacking
- Remove product from its packaging.
- Check that product and accessories are not damage
4.2- Connecting the evacuation hose
1. Screw the hose connector (7) provided onto the pump outlet elbow (Fig.1).
2. Wedge the discharge hose on to the hose connection (7) section corresponding to the internal
diameter of the hose
3. Add a fixing collar (hose clamp not supplied) to complete the seal.
4.3- Adjusting the floating switch
1. The float switch (5) enables the automatic start of the pump.
When the water rises to reach approximately 50cm, the pump starts up.
When water level has lowered to approximately 5cm, the pump will stop automatically.
2. By shortening the length of the cable between the pump and the float, it is possible to modify the
water heights that trigger starting and stopping of the pump.
3. To adjust the cut-in/cut-out height, fix the float switch cable to the float switch lock (3) provided
for this purpose, located at the top of the pump.
4. Adjust the cable to the required length
4.4- Start-up
Note: Before use, clear the outlet line
Observe and respect minimum water level and max delivery height
1. The pump must be in a vertical position: ensure that it is stable during operation.
2. Ensure that the float switch can move freely.
3. The suction holes must never be obstructed. It is therefore preferable that the pump should never be
placed directly on the ground or on the bottom of the well, pond or vessel.
For example, use a brick to support the pump.
Warning: to dry out premises (cellar draining for example) it will be necessary to place the pump
below floor level.
