to the multi hose adapter, preferably cutting off the other two stages at the groove at the

end of the 1” dia. step.

Alternatively, you may remove the multi adapter

altogether, and screw on a 1-1/4” BSP hose adapter

as shown in fig.2.

The pump is completely submersible, and should

be placed in a vertical position, on a solid flat surface.

If this is not available, sit the pump a solid surface, eg. house bricks, but ensure they are

not likely to shift.

IMPORTANT:

ALWAYS raise and lower the pump using a rope attached to the lifting handle, NEVER

by the power cable.

Automatic versions should be placed in a sump which has adequate dimensions so as

not to restrict the movement of the float switch.

Take all necessary precautions as described on page 2 before plugging in, and switching

ON.

SUITABLE HOSE, and SPARE/REPLACEMENT MULTI HOSE ADAPTERS ARE

AVAILABLE FROM YOUR CLARKE DEALER

MAINTENANCE

WARNING

Before checking the condition of the pump, ensure it is unplugged from the

mains supply. If the unit is hard wired, ensure the circuit breaker is open.

Check the pump installation regularly to ensure the base inlet is clear of leaves or other

debris.

If the pump has been used for pumping salt water, ensure it is flushed with clean mains

water thoroughly before storing.

Note that these pumps are fitted with automatic thermal overload protection. If the pump

overheats due to an obstruction in the pump, or pumping warm water for example, it will

shut off automatically. Switch the pump OFF and disconnect from the mains supply. Check

for blockages and allow the motor to cool (at least 5 minutes) before attempting to re-

start.

These pumps should require no maintenance other than regular cleaning. If the pump

starts to show signs of wear or damage, contact your CLARKE dealer for advice. Do not

use the pump if there is any damage to the mains supply cable, or to the float switch or its

cable. Do not attempt to repair the pump yourself, as you may damage the waterproof

seal and invalidate your guarantee. Repairs must be carried out by your CLARKE dealer,

or contact the CLARKE Service Department, on 020 8988 7400
