▶ Separate the magnets by twisting them.
▶ Place the magnets at a distance of 30 cm away from each other.
1. Remove all transport securing devices (e.g. adhesive tape, filling material etc.), particularly inside the skimmer.
2. With one hand, hold the skimmer at the desired position in the aquarium from the inside.
3. With the other hand, carefully place the magnet half with logo b onto the glass panel at a distance from the
skimmer (from the outside). Ensure that the magnet does not strike against the glass panel!

Start position

d on the skimmer (⌦C).
2. Set the air adjustment controller to the middle position (⌦D).
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.
Switching on the pump
1. Insert the mains plug in the mains socket. Attention: The pump starts immediately!
Switching off the pump
1. Remove the mains plug from the mains socket.
Fine adjustment (⌦D)

phase. Set the skimmer performance according to your requirements via the air adjustment controller (⌦C).
