Key Features and Components:

Figure 2: Labeled diagram of the Metabo TPS16000S pump highlighting its main features.
- Multifunktionelt design: Usable as a submersible pump for both clear and dirty water.
- Ergonomic Carrying Handle: For comfortable and secure transport.
- Angled Connection Piece with Multi-adapter: For flexible hose connection.
- Adjustable Float Switch: Enables automatic operation based on water level.
- Impact-Resistant Plastic Housing: Provides durability and protection.
- Overbelastningsbeskyttelse: Safeguards the motor from overheating.
- Flat Suction Capability: In clear water mode, it can pump down to 1 mm residual water level.
- Dirty Water Capability: Suitable for coarse impurities up to 30 mm grain size.

Figure 4: The power plug features selector buttons for switching between automatic operation (using the float switch) and manual operation (for flat suction).
4. Opsætning
- Slangeforbindelse: Attach a suitable discharge hose to the angled connection piece. Ensure the connection is secure to prevent leaks. The multi-adapter allows for various hose diameters.
- Placering: Place the pump on a stable, level surface in the water to be pumped. Ensure the pump is fully submerged and not resting on debris that could block the intake.
- Justering af flydekontakt: Adjust the float switch cable length to set the desired ON/OFF water levels for automatic operation. A shorter cable results in a smaller operating range (pump turns on and off more frequently), while a longer cable provides a wider range.
- Strømtilslutning: Connect the power plug to a grounded electrical outlet that matches the pump's voltage (230V, 50Hz).
5. Betjeningsvejledning
5.1 Automatic Operation (with Float Switch)
- Ensure the float switch is set to "AUTO" on the power plug.
- Pumpen starter automatisk, når vandstanden stiger, og løfter flydeafbryderen.
- The pump will automatically stop when the water level drops and the float switch falls below the set level.
- Regularly check the float switch for free movement and ensure it is not obstructed.
5.2 Manual Operation (for Flat Suction)
- Set the switch on the power plug to "MAN" (Manual).
- The pump will operate continuously, regardless of the water level, until manually switched off or unplugged.
- This mode is ideal for flat suction down to 1 mm in clear water applications.
- CAUTION: Do not allow the pump to run dry in manual mode, as this can cause severe damage to the motor. Monitor the water level closely.

6. Vedligeholdelse
Regelmæssig vedligeholdelse sikrer pumpens levetid og effektive drift.
- Rensning: After each use, especially when pumping dirty water, rinse the pump thoroughly with clean water to remove any debris.
- Inspektion af impeller: Periodically check the impeller area for blockages. Disconnect power before attempting to clear any obstructions.
- Flydekontakt: Ensure the float switch moves freely and is not encrusted with dirt or debris.
- Opbevaring: Hvis pumpen skal opbevares i en længere periode, skal den rengøres grundigt, alt vand skal tømmes for vand, og den skal opbevares et tørt og frostfrit sted.
7. Fejlfinding
| Problem | Mulig årsag | Løsning |
|---|---|---|
| Pumpen starter ikke. | No power supply; Float switch not activated (in AUTO mode); Motor overload. | Check power connection and circuit breaker; Adjust float switch position or switch to MAN mode; Allow motor to cool down, then restart. |
| Pumpen kører, men der kommer ikke vand ud. | Intake blocked; Discharge hose kinked or blocked; Water level too low. | Disconnect power and clear intake; Check and clear hose; Ensure pump is fully submerged. |
| Pumpen stopper uventet. | Overload protection activated; Float switch deactivated (in AUTO mode); Power interruption. | Allow motor to cool; Check float switch position; Check power supply. |
| Reduced pumping performance. | Partial blockage in intake or impeller; Worn impeller. | Disconnect power and clean pump; Contact authorized service center for inspection. |
