2. Enfòmasyon sou Sekirite
Toujou obsève prekosyon sekirite sa yo pou evite aksidan pèsonèl ak domaj nan ekipman yo:
- Sekirite elektrik: Ensure the power supply matches the pump's specifications (230V). Always disconnect power before performing any maintenance or installation. Use a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) for outdoor use.
- Sekirite dlo: Do not pump flammable or corrosive liquids. Ensure all connections are watertight to prevent leaks and electrical hazards.
- Enstalasyon: The pump must be installed in a location protected from rain and splashes. Ensure stable placement on a level surface.
- Operasyon: Never operate the pump dry. The integrated dry-run protection helps, but manual checks are crucial during initial setup.
- Timoun ak bèt kay: Kenbe timoun ak bèt kay lwen ponp ki ap fonksyone a.
- Antretyen: Only perform maintenance tasks described in this manual. For complex repairs, contact qualified service personnel.
3. Enstalasyon ak Enstalasyon
Proper installation is crucial for the optimal performance and longevity of your AL-KO HW 6000 FMS Premium pump.
3.1 Debalaj ak enspeksyon
Carefully remove the pump from its packaging. Inspect for any signs of damage during transit. Ensure all components listed in the packing contents are present, including the instruction manual, corner connection, and filter wrench.
3.2 Plasman
Place the pump on a firm, level surface. It must be protected from direct weather exposure (rain, splashes). Ensure adequate ventilation around the unit.

3.3 Connecting Water Lines
- Liy pou aspirasyon: Connect a robust, non-kinking suction hose to the pump's suction inlet. Ensure the suction line is completely airtight to prevent air ingress, which can impair pump performance. For optimal self-priming, the suction height should not exceed 8 meters.
- Pressure Line: Connect the pressure line to the pump's outlet. The included corner connection and check valve should be used to prevent backflow and maintain pressure.
- Priming ponp lan: Before initial operation, fill the pump housing completely with water through the designated filling opening until no more air bubbles emerge. This is essential for self-priming.
3.4 Koneksyon elektrik
Connect the pump to a properly grounded 230V power outlet. Ensure the electrical circuit is protected by a residual current device (RCD/GFCI) for safety, especially in damp environments or outdoor installations.
4. Operasyon
The AL-KO HW 6000 FMS Premium pump features intelligent electronic control for efficient and safe operation.
4.1 Kòmanse ponp lan

To save energy, switch the pump to Eco mode. This mode can reduce energy consumption by approximately 15% compared to normal operation. Refer to the pump's display and controls for activating Eco mode.
4.3 Dry-Run Protection
The integrated dry-run protection system automatically shuts off the pump if no water is detected in the suction line, preventing damage. If the pump stops due to dry-run protection, check your water source and suction line for issues before restarting.
5. Antretyen
Regular maintenance ensures the long-term performance and reliability of your pump.
5.1 Cleaning the Pre-Filter
The pump is equipped with a large, easy-to-clean pre-filter that protects the pump's interior from dirt and debris. Regularly check and clean the filter, especially if you notice a decrease in pump performance.

- Close any valves on the suction and pressure lines.
- Use the provided filter wrench to carefully open the filter housing.
- Remove the filter element and rinse it thoroughly under clean running water.
- Inspect the filter element for damage and replace if necessary.
- Reinsert the clean filter element and securely close the filter housing using the wrench.
- Reconnect power and prime the pump if necessary before restarting.
