minutes using the arrow keys, and confirm the settings with the middle key (set).
You can repeat these steps to change the other feeding times. In this way, you can
also set feeding times before 8 a.m. and after 8 p.m.
Amount per feeding
You can set the amount of feed per feeding at between 1 and 10 doses. The amount of
feed per dose varies depending on the worm screw used. You can test the dose
dispensed with each screw and select the number of doses per feed. An advanced
and particularly sophisticated feature is that the automatic feeding system does not
dispense the set amount of feed at once; it splits it up into 3 portions and releases
them at intervals of about 1 minute.
Extra manual feeding
Manual feeding is always possible, whether or not the automatic feeding is turned on
or off. You can set the amount of feed per feeding at between 1 and 10 doses.
FEED VARIETIES
The Fish Feeder Pro can be used for virtually any type of feed (see illustration).
A
The screw with the teeth can be used to dispense flake and natural feed.
B
The largest worm screw can be used to dispense pellets in the 9 to 12 mm range.
C
The middle worm screw can be used to dispense pellets in the 6 to 8 mm range.
D
The smallest worm screw can be used to dispense pellets in the 3 to 5 mm range.
Before changing the worm screw, the Fish Feeder Pro should be empty and clean.
AUTUMN AND WINTER
When temperatures drop in autumn, fish require less food due to their low energy
use. Limit the amount of feed during this period. When the water temperature is 8°C
or less, the feeding device can be removed from the pond. At these low tempera-
tures, it is enough to hand feed the fish once or twice a week with winter food.
MAINTENANCE
In order to guarantee proper feeding continuity, the Fish Feeder Pro should be cleaned
occasionally during the pond season. In any case, when you refill it or change the screw.
Make sure the feeder is empty and remove the screw by turning it to the left. Use a
brush to remove dust from the screw and the housing. Before the Fish Feeder Pro is
stored for the winter, make sure you clean and dry the feed container, the screw housing
and the screws and then put the device away in a dry place until the following spring.
SAFETY REGULATIONS
Ensure a durable grounded connection to the electric mains and use an earth leakage
circuit breaker of nominal 30 mA. With damage to the device, control display or cable
the apparatus should no longer be used. With activity in or around the pond, all elec-
trical pond apparatuses should be unplugged. This also applies to the Fish Feeder Pro.
