The PondMAX Aeration Kits have been manufactured with advanced technology to provide you with the best quality
aeration for your pond or water feature. Visit our website to view our range of pond filtration, outdoor/underwater
lighting, water treatments and general accessories. PondMAX Aeration Kits are suitable for many different applications
including aquariums and fish pond/water garden applications. Aeration is a very effective method of enhancing pond fish
habitats, improving water quality, reducing algae, and removing phosphorus. Aeration can also break down unwanted
bacteria, help with mosquito problems, and remove foul odours from a pond - all by circulating the water and adding
dissolved oxygen.
• Any damage to the equipment or unmerited operation
can potentially bring dangers to the surrounding
precincts. If there is any damage of the equipment, it
must not to be used. The equipment should be placed
out of reach of children.
• For your own safety, completely disconnect all electrical
appliances before any maintenance of equipment is
attempted on/in the tank or body of water. Always
unplug the air pump from the power supply when not
in use. Never pull the cable to disconnect the plug
from the power supply - Grasp the plug and pull to
disconnect. Care should be taken to ensure the power
cable is situated to avoid a tripping hazard.
• Cutting the cable may void your warranty.
• If required, have a qualified electrician install a
weatherproof power supply point in reach or the water-
feature (within the cable length of the appliance). For
applications within the US or Canada- make sure to plug
the pump into an electrical outlet with a (GCFI) Ground
Fault Circuit Interrupter. For Australian applications-
always use a properly grounded power supply that is
connected to an RCD, with a rated residual operating
current. Do not exceed 30mA. [AS/NZS 3350.2.41:1997]
• To prevent electric shocks, do not attach the plug to the
power supply socket with wet hands. On installation,
the drip loop method should be used to prevent water
from traveling down the cable and onto the plug or into
power supply. If the plug does get wet, do not unplug
the cable. Immediately disconnect the circuit breaker
that supplies power to the power supply point. Unplug
and examine the plug and power supply point for the
presence of water. If the power point has become wet,
you should consult an electrician before using the
power point again.
• Do not submerse air pump directly in water. The
distance from air pump to the water’s edge should be
at least 6Ft/1.8m. Use of the provided check valves is
highly recommended, to ensure no moisture enters
pump via airline.
• Do not operate the appliance if any components of the
system, such as the power cable, have been damaged.
Check appliance and components of the kit for defects
regularly.
• Do not install or store the appliance where it will be
exposed to extreme hot or cold temperatures. Do not
use in ambient temperatures above 95°F/35°C
• Do not attempt to repair the electrical appliance
yourself. Return to an authorized dealer or place of
purchase if a fault occurs. Regular maintenance is not
considered a repair (e.g. replacing the diaphragms and
air filter is required by user).
IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

service. Correct and safe use of the system requires strict compliance with these safety instructions.
For safety reasons persons less than 16 years of age or persons that are not familiar with these
