V Skim Pro Protein Skimmers should need very little adjustment and maintenance once set up
correctly. However due to salt deposits and the high calcium level in marine aquariums it is
common for deposits to build up and therefore it is recommended that the skimmers are
cleaned periodically with a bottle brush or similar. The air line and V
replacing from time to time.
1. To operate efficiently, the skimmer must be in use 24 hours a day.
2. Make sure all connections are tightly secured.
3. Check regularly that the skimmer is functioning properly and producing the desired foam
consistency and waste material. Adjust water level adjustment dial (7) as required.
4. When the collection cup is full or dirty, ensure all waste material is removed. The more
frequently the cup is cleaned, the more efficient the skimmer will be.
5. Remove collection cup by unscrewing the locking ring and clean any organic build up or salt
and/or calcium deposits from the collection cup and neck.
6. Ensure the outlet and inlet pipe assemblies and the air inlet are clean and free of blockages.
7. Clean and periodically replace the V
8. Clean the pump regularly to ensure it does not become clogged with debris or detritus
(refer to pump instructions for full maintenance details).
9. During cleaning and/or maintenance ensure that the collection cup O ring (2) is clean and
free from cracks and detritus, salt and/or calcium deposits. Make sure the O ring is correctly
re-positioned after cleaning. Failure to do so could result in leaks when the water pump is
switched on.
