Locate the 2 openings (l) and (O) in the tank’s bottom glass and the
corresponding holes in the cabinet. The 2 openings in the tank’s
bottom glass come complete with factory-installed special plastic
fittings, which must never be removed, turned or loosened, and
with two sealing plugs (P) and (Q). The output system should be
installed in the opening (O), and the intake should be installed in
the opening (I).
Once the output/input systems are installed, do not shift
the tank with respect to the cabinet, as this may damage
the output/input systems and the glass tank.
Do not force, loosen or turn the factory-installed special fit-
tings on tank openings (I) and (O).
Output system installation
1. Manually unscrew plug (P) and remove plug (Q) from opening (O) (Pict.1).
Important:
keep plugs (P) & (Q) for any future use.
2. Slip connector stem (A) fully through opening (O) until it stops (Pict.2)
3. Open the cabinet. Screw and tighten the ring nut (R) onto the bottom end
of stem (A) (Pict. 3).
4. Insert the outlet nozzle (N) into one end of outlet stem (B)
5. Insert outlet stem (B) in connector stem (A) (Pict.4).
6. Regulate the height of the outlet nozzles according to your requirement by
sliding outlet stem (B) along connector stem (A).
7. The outlet nozzles (N) can be easily rotated to divert the water flow
where desired.
Direct the water jets so as not to let water overflow from the tank.
Avoid directing the water jets toward the Strip-Light(s) of the canopy
Intake system installation
1. Manually unscrew plug (P) and remove plug (Q) from opening (I) (Pict.1).
Important:
keep plugs (P) & (Q) for any future use.
2. Slip the second connector stem (A) fully through opening (I) until it stops (Pict.2).
3. Open the cabinet. Screw and tighten the nut ring (R) onto the bottom end of
the second stem (A) (Pict.3).
4. Insert the intake strainer (S) in connector stem (A) (Pict.5).
The height of the intake strainer is high enough to suit most standard aquarium decorations. When
decorating the aquarium,
ensure that it remains at least 5 cm (2”) from the gravel bottom at all
times
to prevent it from sucking gravel or sand and to ensure that decorations do not block the
passage of water. Ornaments and rocks should be placed while the aquarium is still dry.
CAUTION!
Never force Connector Stems (A) sideways, as this may damagethe output/input
systems and the glass tank.
If using a different filtration system that does not require the inlet/outlet systems supplied with this unit
(e.g. an internal filter), restore the initial conditions by removing the 2 connector stems (A) and closing
openings (O) and (I) with plugs (P) & (Q). Plug (Q) ensures a watertight seal and has to be inserted into its
seat by pressing it. Plug (P) is designed to protect plug (Q) and ensure that plug (Q) remains in its seat
properly. Screw plug (P) by hand only until it will go without forcing it.
DO NOT USE ANY TOOLS, AS
DOING SO MAY DAMAGE THE UNIT.
