MAINTENANCE

Your PondMAX vacuum requires very little maintenance.

However the container, foam intake filter and waste filter bag should periodically be rinsed to rid of lingering sludge or debris. Occasional inspection of the hoses is also recommended.

• Always switch off the vacuum cleaner at the main switch and unplug cable from power source, before any maintenance is performed.

• Remove all hoses and the motor head from container.

• Rinse the container with a garden hose until all sludge or debris has been removed.

• Pull the foam intake filter and waste filter bag off. Rinse with garden hose until all sludge or debris has been removed.

• While the intake filter is off, always inspect the float for free movement.

• Once the vacuum and components are clean, put the vacuum back together inspecting the hoses and suction rods carefully for possible damage.

WARNING

• Never use the vacuum without the foam intake filter.

• The device may not be used for commercial purposes.

• Never make technical alterations to the device.

• Only use original replacement parts and accessories made specifically for this vacuum.

• Only have the device repaired at authorized PondMAX service locations.

• Do not operate the vacuum in the rain or store in the rain.

OPERATION IN DRY APPLICATION

• Set up the vacuum as near as possible to where vacuum will be used. Make sure the vacuum is standing firmly to prevent tipping.

• Loosen and disconnect the vacuum container clamps and remove motor head. Install paper dust bag 13 firmly onto the suction port on the inside of the container.

Reinstall the motor head and tighten clamps.

• Connect the vacuum power cable to the mains power source.

• Insert one of the supplied nozzles into the end of the suction hose/rods.

• Power on the vacuum at the main switch on the motor head, using the “I” switch setting. This setting allows for basic manual on/off function for vacuum.

• While operating vacuum, use slow and even movements back and forth.

• When operation is complete switch off vacuum, positioning switch centrally to ‘O’.

OPERATION IN WET APPLICATION

• Set up the vacuum as near to the pond or waterfeature as possible. Make sure the vacuum is standing firmly to prevent tipping.

• ATTENTION: The vacuum is designed to be positioned above the water level during operation, to assure proper drain function.

• Position the end of the discharge hose in such a manner that the discharged water is diverted to a remote location, away from pond (e.g. garden, flower bed). Lay the discharge hose flat on the ground (or if possible with a slight incline downward).

• Make sure that the waste filter bag is fastened securely to the end of the discharge hose so that large particles are contained.

• Connect the vacuum power cable to the mains power source.

• Insert one of the supplied nozzles into the end of the suction hose/rods.

• Power on the vacuum at the switch on the motor head, using the “II” switch setting. This setting automatically cycles the fill/drain system. Vacuum has an initial 10 second delay before motor starts, 50 second suction time and 50 second emptying time. The motor will then shut off for 50 seconds and will repeat cycle.

• While vacuum is running, apply vacuum directly to debris using slow and even movements. Keep the vacuum hose below waist level for best performance. When the vacuum container has reached its maximum liquid level, the vacuum will stop sucking automatically. The one way flapper at the end of the discharge hose will open and the debris will exit the vacuum container until empty.

Operation from this point on depends on the switch setting used,

• When operation is complete switch off vacuum, positioning switch centrally to ‘O’.

WARNING

• Never use the vacuum without the foam intake filter!

• Never vacuum up flammable or toxic liquids like gasoline, copy machine toner or other volatile substances.

• Never vacuum up acids.

• Never use in the presence of explosive liquids/fumes.

• Never vacuum up asbestos.
