Fitting The Hose; Fitting The Skimmer Weir And Basket - Swim & Fun SNF1533 Installations- Und Bedienungsanleitung

The skimmer will now be secured with the screws on the outside of the pool. Now fit the remai-
ning screws in the same way, one after the other, in the skimmer housing. Wait to fully tighten the
screws until all are in place. Once they are in place tighten the screws diagonally and uniformly to
ensure that proper sealing is attained.
Note:
To avoid overtightening, use a standard screw driver. Never use a power screw driver.
It is also important to check that the skimmer gasket is evenly mounted around the
opening. Lastly, use a sharp knife to cut away the liner in the skimmer opening.

Fitting the hose

Secure a hose connector (8) to the base of the skimmer housing. Wrap a generous layer of Teflon
tape around the thread to seal. Fit hoses to the skimmer and return. Secure the hoses with hose
clamps. Connect the hose from the skimmer to the filter pump inlet. Connect the return hose to the
top valve outlet on the filter tank (the outlet is usually marked POOL or RETURN).

Fitting the skimmer weir and basket

Fit the skimmer weir (9) into the skimmer mouth. The skimmer weir stops air from entering the filter
system and prevents a vortex from forming in the outlet.
Finally, insert the skimmer basket (5) into the skimmer housing (1) and put on the lid (2).
