driver

 

 

Adjustable Wrench

Warnings and Suggestions 

When installing do not use boats that tip easily, such as a canoe. Follow all boating 
safety rules and regulations, including wearing a PFD. (Personal Flotation Device)

 

Make sure to unroll any rolls of SureSink tubing that have been received before 
installing the diffuser. Unrolling the tubing will make it less likely to kink as it is being 
taken out with the diffuser to the installation site. Make sure to also unroll and connect 
any additional rolls of Suresink before going to the installation site. 

Using a retrieval rope coupled with a buoy will allow for easy retrieval of the unit if 
maintenance is ever needed or the need to move the diffuser arises.
