Maintenance & Disassembling
Should you need to disassemble your unit for maintenance or repair purposes,
please follow the steps below:
Unplug the power cord from the mains. Move your unit to a flat stable surface
near a sink or other drain. (Be sure to hold upright to avoid spillages.)
1.
Rotate the venturi attachment (part 3).
2.
Separate the venturi attachment (part 3) and the venturi flow adjustment
(part 5).
3.
Rotate in the direction of arrow, and then pull to remove the filter cover, and
remove the internal filter cotton for replacement or cleaning.
4.
Press the button on the front cover of the pump, pull in the direction of the
arrow and remove the front cover (part 7).
5.
Pull up the base buckle, pull out in the direction of arrow, and pull out the
back plate (part 15).
6
. Rotate the impeller cover (part 6) in the direction of arrow and pull it to
remove it.
7.
Pull out the impeller (part 13) to clean / replace it.
Clean your impeller with your aquarium water (from a water change) - whilst
doing this you will be able to check that the impeller and shaft are both in good
condition. When returning this to the motor head ensure this is seated correctly
with the two rubbers on either end of the shaft (sometimes the rubbers stay in
the holes that they fit into and will not be obviously evident when first removing
the impeller and shaft).
8.
Make sure the O-ring is in place and secure before reassembling the pump.
