The outlet pipework is attached to the DC Runner 600 using the hose piece as a connector. The pump is fitted in
the right-hand filter chamber with the hole facing the aquarium. Pull off the 45° elbow, insert the short piece of
pipe that connects the 90° elbow to the 45° elbow through the hole and put the 45° elbow back on from the
aquarium side. The angle is adjustable and should point slightly upwards to create surface movement. The two
angles must be as flush as possible with the filter separating pane to prevent splashing noises. The connection
does not have to be absolutely watertight. If the brackets move too easily, you can wrap the PVC pipe with some
Teflon tape.

During evaporation, the water level only changes in this chamber. The water level should be approximately at
the level of the left-hand separating pane, via which the water from the previous chamber runs into the pump
chamber. The latter has a transparent gap on the outer right-hand side. From there you can look into the chamber
and check the water level without having to remove the cover of the filter chamber.
