Connecting it to any other power source may cause damage.

This product requires a fitted industrial plug to BS-EN

60309 (not supplied), for use with a 110 volt supply. On

no account must a 230V, 13 amp (BS1363) plug be

used.

If using a portable 110V transformer make sure it has a

rated capacity sufficient to take the load of the

pump.

To fit the plug, proceed as follows:

1. Undo the socket screws & remove the rear section.

2. Rotate the cable clamp clear of the terminals.

3. Feed the cable through the rear gland in the plug.

4. Remove the cable sheath to the required lengths

as shown in the diagram.

5. Terminate the correct wires in the

correct terminal blocks.

6. Remove the cable clamp screws. Clip

the cable clamp back into position and

place the clamp around the outer

sheath of the cable. Replace the screws

and tighten until the cable is securely

held.

7. Replace the rear cover and tighten the cover screws.

If in any doubt, consult a qualified electrician. DO NOT attempt any repairs

yourself.
