Overflow to the filter
In the cabinet, there is a ball valve (Fig. 2, No. 8) that has to be slightly closed to control the water
in the overflow box. If the valve is closed to heavily or the return flow is blocked for some reason,
the water rises in the aquarium and flows to the filter tank through the emergency overflow. In
such a case, the ball valve has to be opened a bit further and all blockages have to be eliminated.
If the overflow makes loud noises, the ball valve has to be closed a bit more so the water is bottled
up stronger so that no air is dragged along. At least in the initial phase this has to be controlled
regularly and, if necessary, to be adjusted.
With the supplied PVC tubes with moulded keys on one side for holding the nuts of the bushings
(tank fittings), these nuts can be tightened or released. The bushings have to be installed
according to Fig. 3. Always re-tighten before use. The slide ring and nut have to be mounted
manually beforehand and tightened as much as possible. The rubber slide ring must always be
attached to the side of the rotable nut, the rubber gasket on the opposite side of the panel.
