Precautions
Before using this Maxspect™ Gyre™ 300CE Series Cloud Edition Gyre Flow Pump please read these operating instructions carefully. Take special care to follow the safety suggestions listed below. Afterwards keep this manual handy for future reference.
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 equipment. For each of the following situations, DO attempt to repair by yourself; return the appliance to an authorized service facility for service or discard the appliance.
a) If the appliance shows any sign of abnormal water leakage, immediately unplug itfrom the power source.
b) Carefully examine the appliance after installation. It should not be plugged in if there is water on parts not intended to be wet.
c) 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.
d) To avoid the possibility of the appliance plug or receptacle getting wet, position aquarium stand and tank to one side of a wall-mounted receptacle to prevent water from dripping onto the receptacle or plug. A “drip-loop” shown in the figure, should be arranged by the user for each cord connecting an aquarium appliance to a receptacle. The “drip-loop” is that part of the cord below the level of the receptacle, or the connector if an extension cord is used, to prevent water traveling along the cord and coming in contact with the receptacle. If the plug or socket does get wet, DO NOT unplug the cord. Disconnect the fuse or circuit breaker that supplies power to the appliance. Then unplug and examine for presence of water in the receptacle.

Placement – The Gyre pump creates high levels of flow within your aquarium. Please place the Gyre in an area where corals are not too close to the output flow of the pump.
-
Stall – In the event of a motor stall, the Gyre pump may have stopped for a few possible reasons.
You should first check that there is not something blocking the rotors from spinning. -
Overheating – The Gyre pump is designed to run underwater. DO NOT run the Gyre pump when it is not submerged in water. Doing so will cause the Gyre pump module to overheat and could damage the pump component.

Maintenance of the Appliance
Your Gyre flow Pump is designed to operate optimally with little attention
after initial set up.
However, due to the harsh conditions of a saltwater aquarium and resulting
buildup of algae and other organic matter, it is advisable to clean the pump
to ensure the longevity of appliance. Max sect recommends doing a cleaning
every 6 months or as necessary. This can be accomplished by opening the
impeller housing and gently brushing the impeller and inside of impeller
housing with a soft brush under running water. If there is calcium buildup, it
may be necessary to soak these parts in a mild acid solution such as vinegar.
DO NOT use strong acids, because these may damage the components. After
cleaning, reassemble the appliance.
