2. You can now clip the powerhead into place in
the square cut out, Fig 1 (a).
3. Attach the powerhead adaptor pipe, through
the small circle cut out Fig 1 (c), to the top of the
powerhead.
4. Attach the spray bar to the elbow. Ensure the
spray bar holes are at the bottom facing down.
5. Insert the spray bar into the circular part cut
out, Fig 1 (b) in the media section of the filter
tray compartment. Then attach the elbow to the
powerhead adaptor pipe.
6. Attach the strainer to the strainer connector and
then connect to the intake pipe.
7. Attach the intake pipe to the bottom of the
powerhead. Please note, the intake pipe can be
cut to desired length. Your Filter should now be
set up as in Fig 2.
8. If desired, to help with aeration, a venturi valve
is also included with your filter parts. To connect
this, first remove the small black cover from the
venturi fitting on the front of the powerhead, Fig 3.
Then attach the flexible transparent venturi pipe.
The venturi valve can then be passed through the
cut out, Fig 1 (a) and sit outside of the aquarium.
