SERVICE INSTRUCTIONS

1. Every six months the reservoir should be removed, clean the

filter, float and reservoir thoroughly prior to reassembly . We

recommend this is done in the Spring and the Autumn, using

an anti-bacterial wash.

2. Take great care to replace the float with the magnet facing

upwards.

FAULT

Fault: Pump runs all the time

1. Is the float positioned with magnet uppermost?

2. Is the reservoir lid (sensor)located firmly onto the reservoir,

with the float located inside the reservoir, around the sensor

column?

3. Is there sludge inside the reservoir, preventing float from

resting on the bottom? (This may occur if pump has been in

operation for some time without cleaning. Clean using an anti-

bacterial wash.)

Please note:

•After installation and during operation, if you notice air in the

pipe between the reservoir and the pump, you have a

siphoning problem. Follow advice in ‘Preventing Siphoning’

section.

•The pump will only switch off when the float is at the bottom

of the reservoir.

Fault: Pump stops and starts and makes a loud noise.

1. The water is siphoning back through the pump. Follow

advice in ‘ Preventing Siphoning’ section.

Fault: Pump runs but does not pump any water.

1. Is there any air-leaks in the pipe running to the pump?

2. Check that reservoir and inlet tube are free of sludge and

debris.

Fault: Pump isn’t operating at all.

1. Is power reaching the pump? Is it correctly wired?

Is the voltage correct?

2. Is pump very hot? A thermal cut-out may have been

activated to protect pump. This will automatically reset once

pump has cooled down.
