1. SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
1.1.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
 WARNING! It is the owner's responsibility to read, understand and comply with the following:
You must check all electrical equipment and appliances to ensure they are safe before using. You must inspect power supply leads, plugs and
all electrical connections for wear and damage. You must ensure the risk of electric shock is minimised by the installation of appropriate safety
devices. An RCCB (Residual Current Circuit Breaker) should be incorporated in the main distribution board. We also recommend that an RCD
(Residual Current Device) is used with all electrical products. It is particularly important to use an RCD together with portable products that are
plugged into an electrical supply not protected by an RCCB. If in doubt consult a qualified electrician. You may obtain a Residual Current
Device by contacting your Sealey dealer. You must also read and understand the following instructions concerning electrical safety.
1.1.1. The Electricity At Work Act 1989 requires all portable electrical appliances, if used on business premises, to be tested by a qualified
electrician, using a Portable Appliance Tester (PAT), at least once a year.
1.1.2. The Health & Safety at Work Act 1974 makes owners of electrical appliances responsible for the safe condition of the appliance
and the safety of the appliance operator. If in any doubt about electrical safety, contact a qualified electrician.
1.1.3. Ensure the insulation on all cables and the product itself is safe before connecting to the mains power supply. The pump and cable
are designed for submerging in water and as such must not be tampered with (if in doubt, contact a qualified electrician).
1.1.4. Ensure that cables are always protected against short circuit and overload.
1.1.5. Regularly inspect power supply leads, plugs and all electrical connections for wear and damage,
especially power connections, to ensure that none is loose.
1.1.6. Important: Ensure the voltage marked on the product is the same as the electrical power supply to be
used, and check that plugs are fitted with the correct capacity fuse. A 13 amp plug may require a fuse
smaller than 13 amps for certain products, see fuse rating at right.
1.1.7. DO NOT pull or carry the appliance by its power supply lead.
1.1.8. DO NOT pull power plugs from sockets by the power cable.
1.1.9. DO NOT use worn or damaged leads, plugs or connections. Immediately replace or have repaired
by a qualified electrician. A U.K. 3 pin plug with ASTA/BS approval is fitted. In case of damage, cut
off and fit a new plug according to the following instructions (discard old plug safely).
(UK only - see diagram at right). Ensure the unit is correctly earthed via a three-pin plug.
a) Connect the GREEN/YELLOW earth wire to the earth terminal 'E'.
b) Connect the BROWN live wire to live terminal 'L'.
c) Connect the BLUE neutral wire to the neutral terminal 'N'.
d) After wiring, check that there are no bare wires, that all wires have been correctly connected, that the cable outer
insulation extends beyond the cable restraint and that the restraint is tight.
1.1.10. Only allow the minimal amount of pump cable to enter water or wet areas. The electrical cable is designed for use in water and must
not be substituted. If damaged contact a qualified electrician.
1.1.11. Extension cable use. Only use a cable designed for use with water equipment. Contact your dealer or a qualified electrician
for advice. Ensure water is kept clear of electrical mains power supply. DO NOT touch switch or plug with wet hands.
1.2.
GENERAL SAFETY
WARNING! Pump must be used in accordance with Health & Safety, government, local authority, and water authority rules and regulations.
Familiarise yourself with application and limitations, as well as the specific potential hazards peculiar to the pump.
WARNING! Disconnect the pump from the mains power before changing accessories, servicing or performing any maintenance.
Maintain the pump in good condition (use an authorised service agent). Keep the pump clean.
Replace or repair damaged parts. Use genuine parts only. Unauthorised parts may be dangerous and will invalidate the warranty.
Only use for pumping clean cold or warm water (NOT exceeding 35ºC).
If pump is used to pump water from a well, drain or deep receptacle, take adequate precautions to stop persons and animals falling in.
Use the built-in handle to lower or raise the pump. It may be necessary to attach a suitable rope or pulley to the handle.
If the bottom of the water container is covered with sludge, sand, gravel or mud etc, suspend the pump or place it on a raised base to
operate above the solid matter. Sand and such substances will reduce working life of pump, and invalidate your warranty.
In flood situations, user is responsible for ensuring that appropriate back-up procedures, alarms etc are correctly installed in case of pump failure.
In swimming pools, fish ponds, etc, ensure location is clear of people and animals, including removal of fish from pond.
Note: this pump is not designed for continuous use in a fish pond or similar water feature or display.

DO NOT operate the pump out of water. The pump pick up area must be completely submerged during operation.
DO NOT exceed the maximum submersible depth (see specifications: Max. Suction Height).
DO NOT operate the pump during freezing temperatures. DO NOT leave the pump in water that may freeze.
DO NOT use in swimming pools if people could come into contact with the water whilst pump is in use.
DO NOT use for pumping sea water or inflammable, corrosive, explosive or dangerous liquids.
DO NOT carry the pump by its electrical cable, or its outlet pipe. Use the handle only.
