After assembly attach the other end of an airline* into an air pump*. If required reduce the airflow by either turning the pump down or clamping the airline*.

Using a power head* attach it to the Airlift Pipe on the filter. Seek advice from your aquarium specialist for more information.

Thread the airline* through the Airlift Pipe and attach to the Air Inlet. Gently slide the Airlift Pipe along the airline* and push firmly into place.

If your air pump* is going to be placed below the water level, ensure you install a check valve* in the airline*. This will prevent water from siphoning out of your aquarium if your air pump* is turned off.
