Accessing The Impeller

1. Turn the pump off at the main power supply

and remove it from the water.

2. Remove the strainer cover from the front of

the pump. To do this hold the motor with one

hand and simply pull the cover away from the

motor.

3. Now you must remove the impeller cover.

Turn the impeller cover lock anti clockwise and

remove.

4. Pull the impeller cover away from the motor.

This will be a tight fit.

5. Clasp the impeller blades with needle nose

pliers and slowly pull the impeller from the

impeller chamber.

6. Clean impeller under warm running water. Do

not use soap or detergent. Remove the rubber

end caps and ceramic shaft and run clean

water through the hole in the centre of the

impeller.

7. Use an Aqua One double ended pipe brush

to clean the impeller chamber thoroughly.

8. Please ensure the impeller chamber is free from

debris before reassembling the pump, failure to do

so could damage your pump.

9. Ensure both rubber end caps are in the correct

position. If they do not come out when the impeller

is removed one should be in the impeller chamber

and the other in the impeller cover. Failure to

position them correctly will result in your pump

being damaged.

10. Do not force the unit back together as the

ceramic shaft may break. If it does not reassemble

easily check the position of the rubber end caps,

ceramic shaft and impeller.

11. Check the sponge. Rinse under tap water to

remove any built up which may have accumulated

on it. If the sponge shows signs of deterioration

replace it. Note: the 360 and 480 series pumps

does not include a sponges.

12. Reassemble in reverse order; ensure an

aquarium safe lubricant is used to lubricate the

O-ring on the impeller cover.

13. Prior to reinstalling the unit into your aquarium

or filter, ensure your hand is dry and there is no

water on any part of the pump which is not

intended to have water on it. Plug the pump in and

turn on to ensure the pump is working corectly.
