• Make sure the excavated area under the MicroSkim
compacted and level.
• The skimmer should be excavated down to a depth so
that the proposed water level in the pond is approximately
¾" below the top of the opening of the skimmer.
(See Ex. 4) If installing on an existing pond use the known
water level as your guideline on how deep to excavate the
skimmer.
• Re-check all your measurements, including length and
width of pond, plant shelf depth, and overall pond depth.
STEP 4
INSTALLING THE MICROSKIM
• You've already roughed out
a hole approximately 21"(l) x
18" (w) x 18" (h) deep during
the excavation phase. Use
a 2' bubble level in order to
make sure your MicroSkim
is properly set into position.
Your MicroSkim
should be
®
level from side to side and
front to back.
• Install the bulkhead fitting into the overflow opening.
Next install the barb fitting included with the kit into the
bulkhead fitting. A PVC slip fitting has also been included
in your kit in case you are using flexible PVC pipe. Use
some of the silicone sealant to coat the threads of the
fitting, in order to help provide a watertight seal.

Attaching the MicroSkim
WARNING
Power tools are not recommended for installing the
screws and may strip the nut inserts
• Position the liner against the
MicroSkim
opening, making
®
sure there is slack below the
opening. This will help reduce
tension on the faceplate when
placing boulders in front of
the unit. Use your finger or a
screwdriver to mark the outer
perimeter of the MicroSkim
opening on the liner.
(See Ex. 6)
• Mark a second box 1.5" inside
of it. This insures that you don't
cut too much of the liner, which
would result in a possible leak.
(See Ex. 7)
• Cut the inner box using a pair of
scissors, and insert the skimmer
faceplate into the hole.
(See Ex. 8)
• Make sure MicroSkim
is in the upright position. The
hinge should be at the bottom.
(See Ex. 9)
• Temporarily install the faceplate
and liner to the skimmer
using two screws in the upper
corners. Using an awl or nail
poke the first hole in the liner all
the way through to the inside of
the filter box. Be careful not to
