Installation
Choose the type of water effect you want to install, and fit it onto the telescopic pipe by simply pressing it onto the pump. Turn on the UltraFlo by lifting the locking lever A, lay the pump on the half housing, and match up the telescopic pipe with the outlet provided.
Close the housing, ensuring that the pump rests perfectly on the supporting wings, and that the cable is inserted in the outlet hole. Secure the two half housings by lowering the lever.
Place the UltraFlo in a flat area, easily accessible for maintenance operations, and free from severe formations of algae. Adjust the height of the pipe so that the spray is always above water level. If the filter does not sit firmly on the bottom of the pond, it will be useful to fix it with screws to a support by means of the holes provided on the base of the housing. The cable must be laid on an area where it cannot be damaged in any way. Once the filter has been turned on, you can regulate the size of the water effect by adjusting the diverter on the telescopic pipe.
Housing Maintenance
For correct operation, UltraFlo requires simple but necessary periodic maintenance. After having disconnected the power supply, simply open the housing and rinse it in running water, using a small brush to remove any scale. Reassemble as described above.
Pump Maintenance
Open the pre-chamber from the pump body, pulling it gently upwards from the base, and then slip out the rotor. Rinse everything in running water, and remove any scale with a small brush.
