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. (Where the impeller

sits in the motor)

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 do not include

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.
