until both magnet halves lie one above the other.
5. Operation
Start position
1. Position the skimmer so that the water level of your aquarium match-
es the wavy line h (water level characteristic line) on the skimmer.
2. Set your air pump to the middle level.
Following initial commissioning, the skimmer must "run in". This can
take up to one week. The skimmer usually starts to produce foam within
the first 2 days. During this time, residual air may escape at the outlet.
This is no cause for concern. Following the running-in period, no further
residual air will escape.
Fine adjustment
You can adjust the skimming performance according to the air volume of the
pump. You can also change the installation height of the skimmer. However,
adjustment according to the air volume is preferred.
6. Maintenance
Attention! Electrocution!
▶ Before maintenance work, remove the mains plug of the pump.
Caution Material damage.
▶ Do not use hard objects or cleaning agents for cleaning.
The following sections describe maintenance work necessary for
optimum and fault-free operation. Regular maintenance prolongs the
service life and assures functionality of the skimmer over a long period.
Cleaning the skimmer
1. Before maintenance work, remove the mains plug of the pump.
