How to use

To use the Flo 79791, first attach the appropriate hose adapter to the outlet. Ensure the pump is placed on a stable, level surface within the area to be drained, such as a basement or tank. Connect the pump to a grounded 230V power supply.

Always ensure the pump is fully submerged during operation to maintain proper cooling.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that the minimum shaft dimensions of 40 x 40 x 50 cm are available for proper float switch movement.
• Ensure the hose diameter matches one of the provided adapters (1ʺ, 1-1/4ʺ, or 1-1/2ʺ).
• Check that the power source is compatible with the 230V requirements.
• Confirm that the water to be pumped does not exceed the 35°C temperature limit.

Usage recommendations: Regularly inspect the pump housing and the float switch for any debris or buildup that might hinder performance. After use in polluted water, flush the pump with clean water to maintain the integrity of the internal components and extend the service life of the device.
