cable points upwards.
The pump is for under water operation, only. The max. water depth is 1 m | 40 in. We recommend to place
the pump at least 10 cm | 4 in beneath the surface to prevent the pump from pulling air. The SmartDrift is
designed as a current pump, thus cannot be connected to any piping. The pump has a ceramic bearing, which
has a break-in period of a few days. During that time a slightly higher noise level may be noticed.
Mounting the pump: The pump is mounted to the aquarium glass with its magnet holder. Carefully separate
the external magnet from the internal magnet with the rotatable pump holder. Now, the pump with the holder
has to be placed in the aquarium at the requested place of the aquarium glass and then the second magnet has
to be attached from the outside in the correct position. Never remove the external magnet without turning off
the pump previously and hold it tight.
To prevent the pump from pulling air, be sure to place it at least 10 cm | 4 in beneath the surface. To prevent
the pump from disturbing the sand bed, avoid mounting it too close, or pointing it to the bottom of the aquarium.
The pump can be adjusted in any direction by simply turning the magnet. Be sure to hold the pump firmly.
Note: Even though the pump comes with a strong magnet holder that holds the pump securely in place, we
recommend to place the pump away from expensive animals in case it becomes dislodged from the aquarium
glass.
The pump is open at the front. Avoid operating the pump via a timer. There could be animals in the suction
basket that would be injured or killed by the starting propeller.
Safety instructions
The pump is constructed for indoor aquarium use only. The connection cable and the power plug
must not be replaced. If the power cable is damaged, the pump must be scrapped.
