Use the above method to adjust the dark brown to black viscous contaminants in the cup.
If water colour is light yellow to brown and it is accumulated in the cup, lower the amount
of foam and the water level to see how it looks.
Adjustment Guide (Dirt Removal Condition)
Note that if the water level at the installation site drops due to
evaporation or some other reasons, not only will the skimmer's
capacity be reduced, but also the pump will draw in air and cause
damage.
Attention
It is recommended to use the pump at an output of 60 to 70% with good
pump operation efficiency. Constant operation at 100% accelerates pump
wear.

Ideal balance between water level and foam
※At the beginning of setting, after changing water,
or after adding additives, the balance between water
level and foam as shown in the figure may not be
maintained, but this is not a problem.
A large amount of foam may be generated immediately after the initial setting, after water change,
and immediately after maintenance. Please check regularly.
●Maintenance
Clean the collection cup once a week. Regular cleaning will remove more
contaminants (if more than one-third of the contaminants have accumulated).
At that time, use a soft cloth without using detergent, and clean it with warm water.
Clean the air tube once a week.
If the air tube gets clogged, the air flow will decrease and the capacity will drop
dramatically.
Once a month, check that calcium has not settled on the inside of the motor, impeller,
and water supply port, and if so, remove it with a cloth or brush.
For areas where brushes do not enter, dissolve calcium using acetic acid solution.
※Be sure to unplug the power from the outlet and the power is not turned on.
※Make sure you understand the structure of the pump before proceeding.
※Do not use detergents or hard sponges or brushes.
※Clean the power cord and outlet with a soft, dry cloth.
