Assembling & Using Your Product

Unpack all components carefully. Please check to ensure all parts have been removed from the packaging.

Components:

• Stainless Steel Ultra Violet Clarifier
• 40 Watt UV Light

IMPORTANT – Safety Warning

• Always disconnect all appliances from the electrical supply before putting your hands in the water while the equipment is being installed, repaired, maintained or handled.
• The use of gloves and eye protection is recommended when installing or maintaining the clear glass tube inside the clarifier.
• Do not run the clarifier dry.
• The clarifier unit is weatherproof but not waterproof and must not be submerged in water. Therefore, position the unit away from the edge of the pond to prevent the clarifier from being accidentally dropped into the water.
• Exposure to Ultra Violet (UV) radiation can cause damage to eyes and skin. Never look at the lamp while switched on. The lamp can be checked when switched on by looking at the clear hose tail – a blue glow should be visible when the UV lamp is operating.
• To protect from frost the clarifier should be taken indoors during winter months when algae growth stops. Clean and dry the unit and store in a dry place.
• Young children should always be supervised near water.

INSTALLATION

• To prevent algae growth and green water, the Alpine UV Clarifier should be run for 24 hours a day during the season. When the UV Clarifier is used in conjunction with a pond filter and filter pump, your pond should be clear within 2 weeks.

• Remove the UV glass tube by gently pulling out the electrical connection.
• Insert a new glass tube by pushing gently into the electrical connection.
• Re-assemble the end cap of rotating clockwise.
