BEFORE STARTING YOUR MOTOR
Drain (fill up with
water) your pump
and verify that there
are no air entrance
or leaks in the pipes
or in the foot valve.
Wait some minutes
and make sure that
the level has not
dropped.
IMPORTANT: NEVER OPERATE THE PUMP
WHEN IT IS EMPTY. IF THIS HAPPENS ACCIDEN-
TALLY TURN THE PUMP OFF, WAIT FOR IT TO
COOL AND THEN TURN IT ON USING CLEAN
WATER.

MAINTENANCE

The pump does not require maintenance as long
as the following precautions are taken: when
there is a risk of freezing, empty the pump by
removing the suction tube, ensuring that the
pump is primed when it is started again, check
that the foot valve is cleaned at regular inter-
vals, if the pump is to remain inactive for an
extended period of time it is advisable empty it
completely, rinse it with clean water and store it
in a dry place. if the arrow does not turn freely,
release it using a screwdriver, there is a hole in
the back of the pump that gives access to the
arrow, turn it with the help of the screwdriver,
if this does not solve the problem remove the
pump body, by loosening the corresponding

TO IDENTIFY WHERE THE WATER LEAKS ARE,
DRY THE MOTOR PUMP AND PIPING AND FILL IT
UP AGAIN WITH WATER.

that may arise.

CONSIDERATIONS TO INSTALL THE WATER TANK
It is recommended to install a foot valve with
a diameter wider than the pump's suction to
avoid losses due to friction.
