INSTALLATION AND USE
3. Prepare intake connections
1. Attach hosing to the intake connector on the AquaStop
valve; when you hold the AquaStop valve by its silver lock
lever, the input connector will be on your left.
a. Push one end of the hosing onto the valve; push it all
the way, as far as it will go.
b. Turn the lock nut counter clockwise until it is as tight as
you can make it without forcing.
2. Measure and cut the hosing. You will need a length of
hosing that reaches comfortably from the filter canister to
inside the aquarium.
a. Place the AquaStop end of the hosing at the
approximate spot where it will be positioned on the
filter cover once the filter is installed.
b. Stretch out the hosing so it rests over the "intake" rim
connector assembly.
c. At a spot about 4 in. (10 cm) beyond the aquarium rim,
use a utility knife to cut the hosing. Do not cut the
hosing too short.
IMPORTANT:
so that its connection point with the intake assembly is
always about 3 in. (7.5cm) below the water line.
Remember, you can always cut hosing shorter during
final installation, if necessary.
3. Push the cut end of this "intake" hosing into the rubber
connector on the intake tube. Push the hosing in by at least
1 in. (2.5cm) without twisting it.
IMPORTANT
• Hosing must follow a straight path with some slack but
no kinks or loops.
• If the hosing is too long, the filter will not work properly.
• The factory-finished end of the hosing must connect to
the AquaStop valve.
• To ensure a watertight seal, the cut end of the hosing,
which connects to the intake assembly, must be kept
under water.
You will want the hosing to be long enough
