2.2.4.1 Model with Minipump (Fig. 9)
•= Screw the 1 ¼ sleeve (Pos. 15 Fig. 9) with teflon in the suction connection of the pump and then connect the other
end of the ø38 mm x 4.5 m. hose from the skimmer to this sleeve, tightening it firmly with a clamp (Pos.10 Fig. 9).
•= Place a coupling (Pos.13 Fig. 9) inside the pump drive connection and screw the 1” sleeve (Pos.14 Fig. 9). Unless it
is already connected, connect to this sleeve using a clamp on one end of the (AR-135 = ø38 mm x 0.58 m // AR-140 =
ø38 mm x 0.68 m) (Pos.8 Fig. 9) hose and connect the other end to the 1 ½ sleeve (Pos. 12 Fig. 8) at the inlet of the
selector valve (that has previously been set in the PUMP position) and tighten with a clamp.
