ILTER 

KIT

Do not look at a unshielded UV Clarifier bulb. Ultraviolet light is harmful to your eyes and may cause blindness. Do not 

operate UV bulb out of the plastic housing.

As the UV Clarifier bulb and quartz sleeve are made of glass, please avoid sudden movement or rough handling, as 

this could potentially break the glass.

In cold temperatures where frost or freezing may occur, please cease to use the unit. Remove from the environment. 

Frozen water will crack the quartz sleeve.

Once a fountain nozzle has been selected, assemble the fountain kit as per the diagram later on in this manual. 

First 

s

crew 

the 

T-Piece onto the pump outlet

 (1/2" 

male 

threaded adapter)

 and adjust the telescopic riser to the desired 

height and 

align

 vertically

 for even water flow

. On the dual-control flow 

adjuster

, on the T-Piece, you can restrict flow 

from pump to both the fountain nozzle or the optional 

waterfall outlet. Close the second outlet of the T-Piece if this is 

not required for an optional waterfall.

Position the devise in the pond or water feature horizontally, on a solid base free of sludge and debris, in such a 

manner that the 

filter cover 

of unit

 is completely covered with water but the fountain kit protruding out of the water.

Now go ahead and firmly 

plug the power cable into the nearest 

electrical outlet, supplied with a (GCFI) Ground Fault 

Circuit Interrupter. 

Take off the fountain  nozzle kit first, and then open the 4 clips (2 on each side) on the side of the filter.

Take out the filter sponge and filter media cartridge boxes and clean them. It is recommended that this is done in a 

bucket of pond water to ensure the good bacteria are not depleted by the chlorine/

chloramine

 typically found in tap 

water. 

Always c

heck for wear and tear of the sponge and replace if 

necessary.

 

Maintain the filter sponge regularly 

according to how quickly the sponge gets clogged up. When the flow starts to get reduced, check and clean if 

necessary. 

UV CLARIFIER:

 

You can help boost the biological function of your filter with a PondMAX bacterial additive, available 

at your local PondMAX authorized dealer.

The UV Clarifier lamp should be replaced regularly at the end of its design life (between 9-12 months). To replace the 

UV Clarifier bulb

 you will need to remove the fountain nozzle kit and the plastic 

filter cover, exposing the inside of 

unit.

 The UV Clarifier is a cylindrical shaped piece of black plastic, which extends from one end to the other. There are 

2 Phillips head screws holding the UV Clarifier in, one connects the UV body to the bottom of filter body and the 

other secures the power cable where it exits the filter body. 

Remove b

oth screws, making sure to place them in a 

secure place where they wont get misplaced. Now you can remove the UV Clarifier and the pump together taking 

care not to damage anything. The pump is connected to the UV Clarifier via a plastic elbow and also the pump power 

cable. 

Place the

 

UV Clarifier and pump on a flat surface such as a table or counter top, then place one hand 

where 

power cable enters UV and the other hand firmly gripped on the UV body.

 

Then twist the UV body counter clockwise 

to the stop position and then slide out the unit, exposing the quartz sleeve and lamp. Remove the quartz sleeve by 

loosening the thread on the locking ring near its base. Apply a little pressure and twist the quartz sleeve gently away 

from the electrical assembly. Now the lamp is clearly accessible and can be removed by pulling on it gently but first, 

make sure to use a cloth or gloves, so as not to touch the lamp directly with your fingers. Replace the lamp if 

necessary and then reassemble unit in reverse manner. Make sure to always clean the quartz sleeve and thoroughly 

inspect all o-rings/gaskets while UV is apart.

PUMP: To carry out maintenance on the pump, turn the impeller cover in a counter clock direction to the stop 

position. Now separate the impeller cover and pump body. Take out the impeller, clean it with clean water and a 

suitable brush. Inspect for excess wear and replace if necessary. Once the cleaning and inspection process is 

completed, reassemble the pump in reverse manner. The pump suction elbow is pushed firmly onto the inlet on 

pump impeller cover.

 Pay attention to the UV Clarifier casing when inserting it back together as the inspecion hole 

needs to be positioned towards the top.
