For best performance, please clean the collection cup frequently. Use a sponge and warm water to clean it.
Do not use any soap or chemicals to clean the collection cup!
Regular maintenance of the pump will ensure a long life and maximum performance: recommended every 3 months.
It may require 2 – 4 weeks for the skimmer to reach maximum performance due to tiny amounts of oil or remnants left from manu-
facturing. Skimmer performance may be erratic during this time and be sure to allow ample time for the skimmer to break-in before
making adjustments.
Unscrew the body screws from the base plate, and pick up the skim-
mer body.
Attach the pump to the base plate.
Take off the venturi.
* Only for ACS120:
Loosen the fitting on the pump for next step to
attach the diffuser.
ACS120:
Attach the diffuser
base to the pump and tighten
the fitting.
Unscrew the center screw to take off the diffuser plate.
ACS180 & ACS280:
Loosen the screw beside the cap and put the plate on the pump then screw back,
make sure the plate is in the center of the base plate.
Clean all parts before you connect the skimmer to your aquarium. Use only warm water and do not use alcohol-based cleaning products. Use
caution when handling as acrylic scratches easily.
