Commissioning/start-up

Thoroughly clean the pond before starting up the filter system for the first time to ensure that it is not
►
overloaded by excessively soiled water. OASE recommends using the PondoVac pond vacuum
cleaner for cleaning the pond.
This cleaning measure is normally not necessary for newly installed ponds.
−
It is necessary to operate the filter system for 24 hours a day during the pond season.
►
Attention! Dangerous electrical voltage.
Possible consequences: Death or severe injury.
Protective measures: Isolate the unit prior to reaching into the water and carrying out any work on the
unit. Secure the unit from being switched on inadvertantly.
Attention! Sensitive electrical components.
Possible consequence: The unit will be destroyed.
Protective measure:
Do not connect the unit to a dimmable power supply.
►
Do not operate the unit with a timer.
►
Attention! Never allow the rinsing pump to run dry!
Possible consequences: The rinsing pump will be destroyed.
Protective measures:
► Check the water level at regular intervals. Ensure that the rinsing pump is always under water during
operation.
Do not switch on the control system until the container is flooded with water.

Adjusting the level detection device

A rise in the water level during operation indicates that the system is soiled. The level detection device
signals possible soiling to the control system and the cleaning cycle is started.
The water level in the filter system is independent of the water level in the pond. The water level in the
filter system is dependent upon the circulation capacity. Therefore it may be necessary to adjust the level
detection device.
The level detection device can be fitted in two positions.
Position 1: Suitable for circulation capacities greater than 8000 l/h (factory default setting).
►
► Position 2: Suitable for circulation capacities smaller than 8000 l/h and short automatic cleaning
intervals.
How to proceed:
J
1. Undo both lock nuts. Remove nuts and Allen screws.
2. Move the level detection device according to the hole pattern and fix in place with Allen screws and
lock nuts. Tighten both nuts.

Biological filter starter

The foam filters take several weeks to reach their full biological cleaning effect. We recommend the OASE
filter starter Biokick to ensure fast growth of bacterial populations. Micro-organisms colonise the filter
system, multiply and ensure an enhanced quality of the pond water by the decomposition of excess
nutrients.
