Installation and operation of Swim Skimmer (see ill. 2)
1. Push the swimmer (3) onto the rod (4) and insert this into
the mount (5).
2. Push the mount (5) onto the threaded connection on the Skimmer
housing (2) and screw on the bracket (6). The mount (5) is thus
fastened.
3. Screw a hose connection gland (8) onto the external screw thread of
the bracket (6).
4. Push the Skimmer sieve (1) onto the Skimmer housing (2).
5. There are two ways in which you can install the hose connection
gland (8) on your pump:
5.1. The hose connection gland (8) screws onto pumps with 1˝ thread
connection.
5.2. The hose connection gland (8) pushes onto pumps with a Ø 32 mm
suction connection.
6. Connect the hose connection gland (8) to the Swim Skimmer and to
the pump using a Ø 25 mm (1˝) suction hose.
7. Place the assembled Swim Skimmer in your garden pond.
8. If you position your Swim Skimmer close to the bank, you can take off
and clean the Skimmer sieve without trouble.
A pond fi lter completes the fi lter system. It is connected to the pump in
the pond by a hose and fi lters the pond water. A second hose directs the
fi ltered water back into the pond (see Ill. 2).
Note on operating the Swim Skimmer
1. The hose between Skimmer and pump must be fi lled with water and
free of air.
2. Lift the swimmer up to make sure there is an air cushion under the
edge of the swimmer before turning it on.
3. The Skimmer sieve can be taken off and emptied for cleaning.
This procedure must be repeated and checked as necessary
(depending on level of pollution).
Attention!
If the water level sinks below the operating range due to incident
sunlight and evaporation, the Swim Skimmer can become „stranded".
In this case, the pump can no longer draw in water. This would lead to
dry running, which can damage the pump.
