INSTALLATION AND USE
4. Prepare output connections
1. Connect the hosing to the second valve
(just as for the intake hosing):
a.
Loosen the second metal clamp, and slide it onto the
factory-finished end of the hosing (not the cut end).
b.
Push the end of the hosing onto the valve; push it all
the way, as far as it will go.
c.
Position the metal clamp over the rubber connector,
and tighten.
2. Measure and cut the hosing.
Again, you will need a length
of hosing that reaches comfortably from inside the
aquarium to the filter canister.
Reminder:
Hosing should follow a straight path from the
filter to the aquarium rim, with some slack, but no loops.
If the hose is too long, the filter will not work efficiently.
a.
Place the valve end of the hosing at the approximate
spot where it will be positioned on the filter lid
(once the filter is installed).
b.
Stretch out the hosing so it rests over the “output”
rim bracket.
c.
At a spot at least 6 in. (15 cm) beyond the aquarium rim,
use a utility knife to cut the hosing.
Do not cut it too
short.
Remember, you can always cut it shorter during
final installation, if necessary
3. Push the cut end of this “output” hosing into the rubber
connector of the output nozzle.
Push the hosing in by at
least 1 in. (2.5cm) without twisting it.
4. Place the nozzle in the tank about 1 in. (2.5cm)
below the water line.
5. Fasten the hosing to the “output” bracket using
the three rim connector clips.
