Made in China

You will find your Commercial Grade #1 Electromagnetic Air Pump

FEATURES:

1. Convenient to operate without oil, noise and air pollution.2. Cylinders and pistons are of excellent materials, making the pump strong and durable and

producing little wear after long periods of operation.3. Will meet many requirements of pumps with air dividers from four to twenty outlets.4. Widely used to provide oxygen in aquariums, fish farms and hydroponic systems.

• Use only standard household voltage of 110 volts. Otherwise the pump will be damaged and not usable.

• Maximum working environmental temperature should be within 100°F, with ventilation in the work space to prevent the temperature of the pump from rising too high.

• Before using the pump, make sure the ground line is attached and functional. Do not touch the power with wet hands!

• The Pump must be installed flatly 15 inches above the water level and kept immovable in order to prevent liquid form flowing back and the pump from breaking.

• If the pump is installed outside the room, keep the pump from rain and sunshine. The inside and outside of the pump must be dry at all times.

may cause an unsafe condition.

F) Do not install or store the appliance where it will be exposed to the weather or to temperatures below freezing.

G) Make sure an appliance mounted on a tank is securely installed before operating it.

H) Read and observe all important notices on the appliances.

I) If an extension cord is necessary, a cord with a proper rating should be used. A cord rated for less amperes or watts than the appliance rating may overheat. Care should be taken to arrange the cord so that it will not be tripped over or pulled.

J) This appliance has a polarized plug (One blade is wider than the other). As a safety feature, this plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Never use with an extension cord unless plug can be fully inserted.

This appliance has no user serviceable parts.

k) SAvE ThESE inSTRUCTionS

1. inSTAllATionPlace your air pump above the water level in vertical or horizontal position. (See Fig. 1). If you place it below water level you must use a valve, this way you will avoid any back flow of water when the current falls.

2. oPERATionYour air pump isn’t intended to be used in water. Never place the air pump in water (See Fig. 2).

dAnGER: In case the air pump falls into the water, disconnect the power cord before you remove it.

3. mAinTEnAnCE How to disconnect the air pump: A) Remove the tubing connected to the aquarium. B) Disconnect the power cord.

• This pump will not withstand oil, water, being dropped or a sharp blow.

• For higher air solubility, please install the air stone or air bar and adjust the effective depth of every air stone or air bar below the water level to spread the air equally.

• The general bend of the tube should not be a deviation less that 85% off the position of the pump outlet. Try to place the tube with a smooth, curved angle.

• If the capability is reducing, please check:

1. Whether voltage is beyond the required range.2. Whether the air filter tube, or the joint is broken, leaking or stopped up.3. Whether the pump valve, diaphram is broken or stopped up.4. If located in a place with bad air circulation, it will lead to a higher temperature, lower

volume. You must improve the diffusion of heat.

• Repairs are needed if unusual noises or abnormal symptoms occur.

• If the pump stops working, please check 1) Whether the cable line is broken, cut-off is caused by eroded copper, the joint line is loose or cut off from the power; 2) Whether the piston is blocked because of erosion by air or liquid; or 3) Whether the electric motor winding is still work-ing normally.

A) REAd And Follow All SAFETY inSTRUCTionS. dAnGER - To avoid possible electric shock, special care should be taken since water is employed in the use of aquarium and pond equipment. For each of the following situations, do not attempt repairs by yourself; return the appliance to an authorized service facility for service or discard the appliance:

• Carefully examine the appliance after installation. It should not be plugged in if there is water on parts not intended to be wet.

• Do not operate any appliance if it has a damaged cord or plug, or if it is malfunctioning or has been dropped or damaged in any manner.

• To avoid the possibility of the appliance plug or outlet getting wet, position aquarium stand and tank to one side of a wall mounted outlet to prevent water from dripping onto the outlet or plug. A “drip loop” shown in the figure to the right, should be arranged by the user for each cord connecting an aquarium appliance to an outlet. A “drip loop” is that part of the cord below the level of the outlet, or the connector if an extension cord is used, to prevent water travelling along the cord and coming in contact with the outlet. If the plug or outlet does get wet, DO NOT unplug the cord. Disconnect the circuit breaker that supplies power to the appliance. Then, unplug and examine for presence of water in the outlet.

B) Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.

C) To avoid injury, do not contact moving parts or hot parts such as heaters, reflectors, lamp bulbs, and the like.

D) Always unplug an appliance from an outlet when not in use, before putting on or taking off parts, and before cleaning. Never yank the cord to pull the plug from the outlet. Grasp the plug and pull to disconnect.

E) Do not use an appliance for other than intended use. The use of attachments not recommended or sold by the appliance manufacturer
