Troubleshooting

Pump does not start

Ensure the pump is securely plugged into a functioning 230V power outlet. Check the power cable for any damage. Verify that the circuit breaker has not tripped.

Low flow rate or no transfer

Confirm the pump is properly primed. Ensure the suction hose is fully submerged in the liquid and the inlet is not blocked. Check the dispensing hose and nozzle for any obstructions. Verify the maximum pumping height is not exceeded.

Pump stops unexpectedly

Check if the automatic shut-off function has been activated. If not related to shut-off, ensure the motor is not overheating; allow it to cool down. Check for blockages in the suction or dispensing lines.

Leaking connections
