EHEIM aquaball 60 Manuel D'instructions page 10

Thanks to the pump head that rotates in three dimensions, it is
possible to adjust the outflow direction. The output regulator de-
termines the desired flow rate and the air enrichment can be re-
gulated using the diffusor or nozzle tube.
The foam cartridges inside the filter canisters ensure the mechan-
ical cleansing and simultaneous biological clarification of the water.
A filter sponge is additionally fitted into the filter box to further in-
tensify the mechanical cleaning effects when heavy soiling is pre-
sent. The practical holder allows the filter to be positioned inside
the aquarium and removed with ease.
Installation / Putting into operation
B Attach diffuser with air hose and air regulating valve or
place nozzle tube on outlet connection.
C Fasten the holder with the suction cups to the inside of the
aquarium glass and clip the filter into place.
D Insert the filter such that the pump head is positioned just
beneath the surface of the water. Adjust the pump head to
the required outflow area and surface angle.
E By turning the power regulator, it is possible to infinitely
adjust the pump power to the required setting. The diffuser's
air regulating valve is used to regulate the amount of oxygen
added to the water.
Important: The diffuser power decreases in line with the
degree of soiling.
Cleaning
F Disconnect the filter from the power supply and then pull
upwards out of the holder.
G The individual filter containers can be easily separated from
one another by a slight pressure on the clip.
H Now proceed to clean the modules and wash out the fil-
ter cartridge(s). The cartridges from models 130 and 180
should be only lightly rinsed under lukewarm, running water
in order to preserve the purifying bacteria and to accelerate
its new development.
I To remove the pump head, pull the pump out of the pump
head socket. Flip open the lid and clean or renew the filter
pad. Finish by reassembling the cleaned filter components,
taking care to assemble these in the correct way.
Maintenance
K Disconnect the filter from the power supply! To remove
the pump head, pull the pump out of the pump head socket.
L Remove the pump cover, take out the impeller and the bear-
ing box and clean. Pull out the power regulator with diffus-
er /nozzle tube from pump head. Use the special cleaning
brush (order no. 4009560) to clean the inflow and outflow
openings.
Subsequently, refit the impeller and check that the bearing
box is positioned correctly. Close the pump cover and re-
insert the pump head.
Accessories
The filter box allows the internal filter to be used specifically for
