hazards peculiar to it. Read and become familiar with the entire operating

manual.

ALWAYS ensure that the local supply voltage corresponds with the supply

information on the pump’s data plate.

ALWAYS check the pump for damage before use. Any damaged part should

be checked to ensure that it will operate properly and perform it’s intended

function. Check for alignment of moving parts, breakage of parts, mountings,

and any other condition which may effect the machine’s operation. Any

damage should be properly repaired or the part replaced. If in any doubt DO

NOT use the pump. Consult your local CLARKE dealer.

ALWAYS keep children away. All visitors should be kept at a safe distance from

the work area, especially whilst operating the pump.

ALWAYS maintain the pump in top condition and keep it clean for best

performance. Follow any maintenance instructions.

ALWAYS handle with care, do not carry the pump by it’s electrical cable, or

yank the cable to disconnect it from the power supply.

ALWAYS concentrate on the job at hand, no matter how trivial it may seem. Be

aware that accidents are caused by carelessness due to familiarity.

ALWAYS remove the plug from the electrical supply when adjusting or

changing parts.

ALWAYS use recommended accessories, the use of improper accessories

could be hazardous.

ALWAYS guard against electric shock. Safety can be further be improved by

using a residual current device (RCD).

ALWAYS ensure that the power supply used to power the pump is connected

to an efficient grounding system.

ALWAYS store the pump out of the reach of children, DO NOT allow children to

operate the pump.

WARNING: AS WITH ALL MACHINERY, THERE ARE CERTAIN HAZARDS

INVOLVED WITH THEIR OPERATION AND USE. EXERCISING RESPECT AND

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS

Connect the mains lead to a standard, 230 Volt (50Hz) electrical supply

through an approved 13 amp BS 1363 plug, or a suitably fused isolator switch.

If the plug has to be changed because it is not suitable for your socket, or

because of damage, it must be removed and a replacement fitted, following

the wiring instructions shown below. The old plug must be discarded safely, as

insertion into a power socket could cause an electrical hazard.

If the colours of the wires in the power cable do not agree with the markings

on the plug.

• The BLUE wire must be

connected to the

terminal which is

marked N or coloured

black.

• The BROWN wire must

be connected to the

terminal which is

marked L or coloured

red.

• The YELLOW AND

GREEN wire must be

connected to the terminal which is marked E or or coloured green.

AN APPROVED RESIDUAL CURRENT DEVICE (RCD) WHICH HAS A TRIPPING

CURRENT OF LESS THAN 30 mA MUST BE USED.

If you are not sure, consult a qualified electrician. DO NOT try to do any

repairs.

WARNING! READ THESE ELECTRICAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

THOROUGHLY BEFORE CONNECTING THE PRODUCT TO THE

MAINS SUPPLY.

SETUP AND OPERATION

This bore hole pump is designed to pump soft water from bore holes, wells,

underground springs or storage tanks to supply single sprinkler or irrigation

systems. The pump is watertight and must be submerged in water (max depth

15m).

Suitable pumping liquids are:

• Clear water

•Rainwater

The pump must NOT be used to pump:

• Salt water

• Liquid foods

• Corrosive or chemical substances

• Flammable, explosive or volatile liquids

• Sandy or abrasive liquids

• Sewerage

• Liquids containing textile materials or paper fragments

SETUP

Attach the delivery pipe to the delivery port.

NOTE: DO NOT install a non-return valve on the pump delivery side as one is

already built into the pump. The non-return valve prevents the pump from

draining when stopped.

Secure the supply cable to the delivery pipe.

Secure the rope and lower the pump into the bore hole.

NOTE: The rope should bare the weight of the pump, NOT the delivery pipe or

the supply cable.

The pump must be positioned at least one metre above the bottom of the

bore hole. Sand and other material found in pumped liquid will cause rapid

deterioration of the pump and reduce its efficiency.

Before starting the pump, make sure that the delivery pipe is unobstructed

and the delivery port is open.

To start the pump insert the plug into the mains supply:- to stop the pump

remove the plug from the supply.

The pump is equipped with a thermal-amperometric motor protector. In case

of overload, the motor protector shuts down the pump automatically. When

the motor has cooled the pump starts up again automatically. If the motor

protector steps in, it is absolutely necessary to locate and eliminate the cause

of the malfunction. (refer to troubleshooting on page 8).

NOTE: The water being pumped will be polluted if this pump becomes

damaged and lubricant within the pump escapes.

CARE & MAINTANENCE

This pump does not require any particular maintenance and all repairs must be

carried out by an authorised service centre only.

After removing the pump from the water, drain and rinse with clean water.

To clean the suction filter, use a jet of clean water.

If the pump’s turbines need replacement, take the pump to an authorised

service centre.

If the power supply cable is damaged it MUST be replaced by the manufacturer

or an authorised service centre.

WARNING: ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD! BEFORE CARRYING OUT ANY

MAINTENANCE OR CLEANING OPERATIONS, DISCONNECT THE PUMP

FROM THE POWER SUPPLY.

TROUBLESHOOTING

PROBLEM: The pumps motor does not start or stops suddenly after a few

seconds.

Cause Solution

No power supply.

The thermal-amperometric motor

protector has deactivated the pump

due to overload.

Solid particles have obstructed the

suction filter.

Check the electrical connections.

Unplug the pump and clean it. Check

the water temperature (max 35°C).

Unplug the pump and clean it.

PROBLEM: The pump is running but no water is being delivered.

Cause Solution

The pump is not sufficiently

submerged.

Clogged suction filter.

There is no outflow of air because the

delivery pipe is obstructed.

Lower the pump deeper in the water.

Unplug the pump and clean it.

Remove obstructions from the delivery

pipe.

PROBLEM: The flow rate is insufficient.

Cause Solution

Clogged suction filter.

Diameter of external pipe is too small.

Too high head.

Unplug the pump and clean it.

Use a larger diameter pipe.

Reduce the head.
