4. Replace/close grate assembly for the time being (OH&S requirement).
5. Empty contents of strainer basket into the rubbish.
6. Re-open the grate assembly.
7. Replace strainer basket, taking care that it is sitting squarely and securely in its
recess/groove.
8. Replace/close grate assembly and re-fit any fixing screws if necessary.
Special Maintenance Instructions – “Smart Secondary Strainer” Systems
If the valve mechanism gets very sticky then there is a slight risk that it may not open when
the basket is reinserted after cleaning. This risk can be eliminated if the basket is flushed
every day with 1 litre of hot soapy water. This will ensure that sticky residues, grease etc
do not accumulate on the valve mechanism.

PLEASE NOTE: deliberate destruction of the secondary strainer will void the warranty.
*
For systems 1, 2 and 5, if the secondary strainer is destroyed the whole unit will need to be replaced.
**
For system 3, destruction of the secondary strainer will necessitate disassembly in order for a new
unit to be installed. This will involve some excavation into the finished floor surface so that the grate
assembly can be removed.
