Fill the pump chamber to the brim
with tap water using a watering can
The Hozelock garden pumps are
self priming, therefore they can
be primed without filling the
suction pipe or filter.
Attach the outlet connector to the
outlet of the pump
Connect the garden hose to the
outlet, ensuring that the other end
of the garden hose is open and that
it will be free to drain when the
pump is turned on
Ensure that the suction hose is
under the surface of a suitable
water reservoir (water butt etc.)
Plug the pump into a suitable power
supply
When the power is turned on, the
pump will start the priming process.
This operation can take several
minutes. During the priming process
the pump is pumping a mixture of
air and water, this drastically reduces
the performance of the pump and is
very noisy.
When the pump is primed and ready
to use, the noise reduces and the
flow and pressure are maximised.
If any of the seals or fittings are
missing, overtightened or loose
the pump will not prime
If the pump does not prime
after 5 minutes - stop and
repeat steps 6 to 10
TO CONNECT TO AN IRRIGATION
SYSTEM:
■
For use with hoses and hose reels
add a 2166 hose connector
(available separately)
• The Hozelock Garden Pump has a
built in thermal protection switch.
The pump stops if an overload
condition occurs. The motor restarts
automatically after it has cooled
down.
• Insert the plug into a 220-240v A/C
socket
Make sure that the pump is
disconnected from the electric
power supply before performing
any maintenance.
If pump performance drops it may
be because the two filters in the kit
have become clogged, and require
cleaning
Regularly check the coarse filter on
the end of the suction hose, and
clean if required. After checking or
cleaning the pump with new
repriming. See steps F-J.
Regularly check fine filter fitted
prior to the pump, and clean if
required.
Use the large plastic spanner
supplied to loosen large yellow
locking nut
Remove cup and filter, clean under a
tap. ! Do not scrub
Reassemble, and make sure the nut
is tightened securely - use spanner
provided
• Disconnect hose and loosen bottom
red nut and allow to drain
• Store the pump in a dry place and
protect from frost.
