The pump is intended to be used with either a weather-proof cable connector or permanently connected to the fixed wiring in the main system other than by means of a plug and socket. INSTALLATION For permanent installations to the mains supply, it is necessary to conform to the regulations of the local electricity authority and this would include the use of a metal or plastic conduit to protect the cable. Attention has been drawn to the fact that special rules may exist concerning the installation of your pond pump (i.e. local building regulations). The cores in the supply cable are coloured in accordance with the following code: Brown = Live, Blue = Neutral, Green/Yellow = Earth. These pumps must not be used in swimming pools, or areas where people are in contact with the water. The electric cable is permanently connected and sealed in the motor body. If the supply cable is damaged the pump must not be used. Always disconnect the mains electricity supply whilst the equipment is being installed, repaired, maintained or handled. Consult a qualified electrician if in any doubt about wiring this product to the main supply. Do not use the supply cable to lift the pump as this may cause damage. IMPORTANT: Please note all electrical work on garden lighting and power installations must comply with part P of the building regulations. Failure to comply is a criminal offence. If the installation of this product is not carried out by a competent electrician who is registered under the Part P self-certification scheme then you must notify the local building control department before work begins. For further information and guidance on this matter and other electrical installations in your home that might be covered by the relevant legislation, contact your local authorities building control department. WARNING - THIS PUMP MUST BE EARTHED A Residual Current Device (RCD), also know as the Residual Current Circuit Breaker (RCCB), with a tripping current not exceeding 30mA must be installed in the supply circuit. A means of disconnection from the supply having a contact separation of at least 3mm in all poles must be incorporated in the fixed wiring. Warning - The pond pump is provided with a thermal cut out that temporarily switches off the pump in case of overheating and the pump may automatically restart. Never run the pump out of water as this may cause irreparable damage. Locating your Aquagarden pump The Aquagarden pump should be located on a firm and level base in the pond/water feature in a depth of at least 10cm, but no more than 2m. It is advisable to keep the pump off the bottom of the pond to avoid silt entering the pump causing excessive wear and increasing pre-filter cleaning. Fountain Make sure there is ample cable from mains supply. Place pump in desired location. Add Fountain extension pipes so fountain head is above surface of the pond. Fountain height can now be adjusted, see ‘Adjusting flow control’ diagram below. See "Getting to know your Aquagarden" for parts and descriptions. If using the Daisy or Double Daisy Jet, cleaning of the jets will be reduced by inserting the optional pre-filter foam included. Tip: Ensure that any fountain, waterfall, filter or feature fitted does not empty water out of pond/water feature. In windy conditions it may be necessary to shut off or reduce the height of your fountain display to prevent water loss. Also see the explanatory diagram on the top face of your Aquagarden pump carton. 6 7 Aquagarden 2500.qxd 16/12/10 09:30 Page 11 INSTALLATION ADJUSTING FLOW CONTROL Turn clockwise to increase, anti-clockwise to reduce flow. BELL FOUNTAIN Adjust bell by moving head higher for small bell and lower for a wider bell shape. MAINTENANCE & CLEANING Warning - Failure to carry out routine maintenance leaving the pump under reduced or no flow conditions for long periods (i.e. blocked pre-filter) will result in a shorter pump life and will invalidate the guarantee. Aquagarden 2500 is a centrifugal pump with a magnetic impeller movement driven by a watertight synchronous motor. They require minimum cleaning, only periodic cleaning of the pre-filter and impeller is necessary. Routine Maintenance Tip: Ensure that any fountain or feature fitted does not empty water out of pond/water feature. The Bell Jet and Foam Jets do not need the foam pre-filter so require little maintenance when used with the pre-filter cage only. Carry out routine maintenance when pump flow is visibly reduced. Water Feature 3. Remove the front of the pre-filter cage by depressing the button and pulling apart. Wash the cage thoroughly in fresh water. A blocked pre-filter will reduce pump flow. Follow steps 1 and 2. Install as for Fountain. Depending on water feature to be supplied, your pond pump can be used with the 1/2" hose fitting or 3/4" outlet hose fitting which can be screwed directly into pump body. Hose clips should be used to secure hose. Tip: The larger 1" hose will give maximum performance when fitted. 1. Switch off electricity. 2. Remove pump from pond (do not use the cable to lift the pump). STEP 1: POND PUMP 2500 (ROUTINE) Firmly pull pre-filter cage from pump motor. STEP 2: POND PUMP 2500 (ROUTINE) Remove pre-filter foam (if fitted), and wash thoroughly in fresh water. The pre-filter is for use with Daisy Jets only. A blocked foam will reduce the pump flow rate. DEPRESS BUTTON 8 9 Aquagarden 2500.qxd 16/12/10 09:30 Page 13 MAINTENANCE & CLEANING TROUBLESHOOTING Monthly Maintenance Problem Following as for Routine Maintenance (steps 1 and 2) and then steps 3, 4 and 5. Low flow from pump 1. Follow routine cleaning procedure if no improvement. STEP 3: POND PUMP 2500 (MONTHLY) Remove impeller cover by turning anti-clockwise to release lock. Then pull firmly away from pump motor and cage. STEP 4: POND PUMP 2500 (MONTHLY) Remove impeller from pump motor. Wash parts with fresh water carefully. Annual Maintenance Dismantle pump and examine all parts for wear or damage, replacing any parts that show obvious wear and/or damage. (See getting to know your pump for parts/description and replacement parts codes.) Particular care should be taken to examine the cable entry point and the cable; if there is any sign of damage the pump should be discarded. Winter Storage The pump can be run in the pond during the winter but care should be taken to ensure that it is fully immersed and cannot freeze solid. If the pump is not used during the winter, follow annual maintenance procedure and store frostfree in the house or garage until spring. 2. Follow monthly cleaning procedure. 3. Ensure pipe work is not blocked, leaking or is laid so that it gets crushed or kinked. 4. Keep the height that water is to be pumped from the water surface (called Head) to a minimum. The higher the head the lower the flow rate and the more wear on the pump. 5. Use the largest diameter, smoothest bore pond hose over the shortest distance and keep hose fittings to a minimum. This removes frictional loss of flow and so increases pump flow rates. Poor Fountain performance • Reduced height. • Jets blocked. Use foam insert with Daisy Jets for lower maintenance. DAISY To clean, remove head and rinse. Use optional foam pre-filter with Daisy Jet heads. No flow from pump 1. Check power supply is on. 2. Check fuse and wiring (SEE ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION). 3. Follow low flow procedure as above. If none of the above works contact Interpet (Blagdon) Consumer Advice Department (See Faults problem procedure Page 12). 10 11 Aquagarden 2500.qxd 16/12/10 09:30 Page 15 IMPORTANT FAULTS - PROBLEMS PROCEDURE Before returning your Aquagarden pump to your dealer or contacting our Consumer Advice Department, please carry out the following steps.
