6.6 ft (2 m).

Grounding instructions

This appliance must be grounded. In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding will reduce the risk of

electric shock by providing a path of least resistance for electric current. This appliance is equipped with a cord

having an appliance-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet

that is installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

Warning

Improper connection of the appliance-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified

electrician or service representative if you are in doubt whether the appliance is properly grounded. Do not modify the

plug provided with the appliance; if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified technician.

Install the unit so that it is not exposed to direct sun radiation (max. 104 ºF - 40 ºC).

2. Cut the adapter as shown using a hacksaw;

consult packaging for tubing size. This helps to avoid

pressure loss. (BioPress 1600 / 2400 only)

3. Push the union nuts over the stepped hose adapters,

push the tubing on the on the stepped hose adapter,

and secure with the hose clips.

4. Insert the at sealing ring or the O ring into the

union nut for the black hose adapter and screw onto

the pressure lter inlet.

1. Place the pressure lter in a ood protected position

at a distance from the pond edge of at least 6.6 ft (2 m)

on rm and level ground. As an alternative, the lter

can also be partly buried up to approx. 2 in (5 cm)

below the closing clamps.

○ The height difference between the lter lid and the

free outlet point should be a maximmum of 6.6 ft (2 m).

○ Ensure unrestricted access to the cover to be able to

carry out work on the unit.
