  1. ຕິດທໍ່: Connect the provided nozzle to the pump's outlet. Then, attach the clear tubing to the nozzle. Ensure a secure fit to prevent leaks.
  2. ການຈັດວາງ: Position the pump in your desired water feature (aquarium, pond, fountain, etc.). The pump is designed to operate fully submerged.
  3. Secure Pump: Use the three suction cups located on the bottom of the pump to firmly attach it to a clean, smooth surface within the water. This helps prevent movement and reduces vibration.
  4. Submerge ຢ່າງສົມບູນ: Ensure the pump is entirely underwater before connecting it to a power source. This is critical to prevent motor damage from dry running.
  5. ເຊື່ອມຕໍ່ພະລັງງານ: Once fully submerged, plug the pump's power cord into a standard 120V electrical outlet.

  2. ເອົາອອກຈາກນໍ້າ: Carefully remove the pump from its submerged location.
  3. Disassemble: The pump is designed for easy disassembly without tools. Gently separate the pump housing components to access the impeller.
  4. ອົງປະກອບທີ່ສະອາດ: Rinse all parts, including the impeller, housing, and inlet screen, under clean water. Use a small brush or cotton swab to remove any accumulated debris, algae, or mineral deposits. Pay close attention to the impeller area, as blockages here can significantly reduce performance or cause noise.
  5. ປະກອບຄືນໃໝ່: Once all parts are clean, reassemble the pump, ensuring all components fit securely.
  6. Return to Water: Place the cleaned pump back into the water, ensuring it is fully submerged before reconnecting power.

ຂໍ້ຄວນລະວັງ: If the pump suddenly stops working or produces unusual noises, it is often due to debris blockage. Promptly clean the pump to prevent further damage.

  • Unplug pump, remove from water, disassemble, and thoroughly clean all components, especially the impeller.
  • If dry running occurred, the motor may be damaged.
Reduced water flow or weak output.
  • Debris blockage.
  • Flow rate adjustment knob set too low.
  • Pump not fully submerged.
  • Insufficient power/frequency (less common for user).
  • Tubing kinked or obstructed.
