- Connect the two solar panels and the "INPUT" cable on the back of the battery station through the "Y" connector and the extension cable as shown in the figure above, and then tighten the plug protection screws. Install the solar module at a sunny place, adjust the angle and make sure the solar panels are facing
SOUTH toward mid day sun
- Insert the pump plug to the 18V OUTPUT (port 1 ) socket of the battery back-up, and also tighten the screw.
Mount the hose connection to the Pump Outlet by using the enclosed gland nut. Thanks to the ball joint design, the angle of the hose connection could be adjusted under water when necessary.
Attach the hose onto the outlet of the hose connection. The hose connection is suitable for various hose diameters (inside diameter 25,32 or 38 mm). .
- Place the pump fully underwater.
- Turn the switch to the position "ON". The green LED illuminates. The solar pump is starting to operate. The LED may illuminate RED while it operates at first time, because the battery will lose energy slowly in stock. It just needs to be charged for 2 to 3 hours in the sunlight, then it will change to GREEN and the pump starts to work.
- The pump will automatically stop running while the battery is discharged to its lower limit voltage, and the red LED illuminates at the meantime.
- When the battery is reaching to its starting voltage, the LED will flash RED-GREEN twice every 10 seconds for an hour. Then the pump will automatically operate and the LED illuminates GREEN again.
- Turn the timer switch to the position "ON", the pump works 10 minutes every hour. It can save the battery energy in this operating mode, especially for winter or cloudy day use.
If you want to have long operating time in the evening, then turn the switch to "OFF" position during the day and turn it "ON" whenever you need.
