1) Take the empty tank and place it in your planned installed location.
2) Insert cap into the top of the riser, using the small riser cap, or tape the top of riser to prevent filling with media.
3) Place capped or taped riser into the center of the tank. The bottom of the riser has a lower screen which is
placed at the bottom of the empty tank. Make sure the bottom of the riser is seated at the bottom of the tank.
4) Place funnel at top opening of the tank. This will allow an easier fill of the underbed and filtration media.
5) Load tank with small heavy box labeled underbed, sand or pea gravel. Empty box completely.
6) Load all filtration media boxes. Empty all boxes completely. Materials are black and granular. Please prevent
any inhalation of media dust.
7) Lubricate the tank o-ring seal, which makes contact to the top of tank opening. Note: Use only a silicone lubricant.
8) Install the valve head by slipping upper screen (the cone at bottom of the valve head) over the top of the riser and
onto the tank. Hand tighten valve head onto tank by turning clockwise.
WARNING: BE CAREFUL NOT TO STRIP OR CROSS THE TANK THREADS.
8) The unit is assembled. Now - follow all instructions, pictures and schematics for proper Set-Up, Installation and
Start-Up of these systems.
