already inside the fittings, then re-assemble the unit.
No Flow From Pump
1. Check power supply is on.
2. Check fuse and cable for any damage.
3. Follow the slow flow rate guide (see above) and keep any hose fittings to a
minimum. This helps to remove frictional loss of flow and so increases pump
flow rates.
Poor Fountain Performance
1. Reduced height - extend the fountain attachment.
2. Lime scale / waste build up - clean flow adjusters and fountain head.
3. Waste blockage - remember to keep your unit raised slightly above the
floor level in your pond to help reduce the waste pulling through the filter.
