Annual Maintenance
Disassembling/reassembling your Clean Pond Machine
We would recommend to clean the bottom grill annually
to maintain the performance of the filter, to clean this the
following instructions should be followed:
1.
Turn off the pump.
2.
Undo and remove the lid clasp,
lift off the filter head unit.
3.
Carefully remove all of the CHI media
to a clean bucket and drain the filter
cannister of water.
4.
Unscrew the central locking nut and
remove the downpipe.
5.
Lift the bottom grill out from the
bottom of the filter and rinse in
clean, fresh water.
6.
Return the grill to its position
in the bottom of the cannister
(note the locating notches and fins),
reinstall the downpipe and locking
nut to lock it in position.
7.
Cover the hole of the downpipe
and carefully return the CHI media
to the filter cannister, once it’s all
in uncover the downpipe.
8.
Reinstall the filter head unit and lid clasp
– reattach any hosetails and turn the
pump back on. (ensure the flow diverter
valve is initially positioned to waste to flush
out any fish waste which has been
dislodged from the media in the process.)
