Important general information

The water level in the skimmer must always be at least up to the middle of the filter opening.
If the water level is only 1 cm above the lower edge of the skimmer, there is a risk that too
little water will be added to the filter system.
Regularly check that the skimmer flap is properly functioning and clean the skimmer basket as ne-
eded, but at least once weekly.
The included suction plate (6) is only used when a bottom suction hose is to be connected to the
filter system. It is very important that the hose is completely filled with water before you begin. Fill
the hose by holding it in front of the return tube while the filter pump is running. It is advisable to
turn off the filter pump before the bottom suction hose is connected to avoid air in the system when
connecting the hose.
TIP!
Priming a non-self-priming pump
Attach a hose to the base of the skimmer and switch on the water. Water now flows
towards the pump. Start the pump when it is full of water. The pump begins to suck in
water, creating a vacuum in the hoses.
There is no need to re-prime unless for some reason the hoses have been
disconnected.

Preparing for cold weather

Before cold weather sets in, the water level in the pool must be reduced to a level under the return
tube to avoid frost damage to the component parts during the winter. Hoses and filter systems
must be removed, emptied and stored at a temperature above freezing. If fixed lines are used, they
must be emptied of water. It is advisable to use a skimmer guard during the winter.
It absorbs the extra pressure from any formation of ice in the skimmer.
