HEALTH AND SAFETY
You must read these warnings carefully before installing or using the equipment. Should the equipment be transferred to a new
owner, always ensure that all relevant documents are supplied. Observe all hazard labels and take appropriate acon to avoid
exposure to the risks indicated. Take care to maintain correct posture, parcularly when liing. Use appropriate liing equipment
when necessary.
• Only experienced contractors should carry out installaon, following the guidelines.
• The unit should have a Pre-Service Agreement Inspecon by an approved engineer.
• A qualied electrician should carry out electrical work.
• Covers must be kept locked.
• Observe all hazard labels and take appropriate acon to avoid exposure
to the risks indicated.
CLOTHING
• We recommend the use of a dust mask and gloves when cung GRP components.
• Any person carrying out maintenance on the equipment should wear suitable protecve
clothing, including gloves.
WORKING AREA
• Ensure that the working area is adequately lit.
• Ensure that you are familiar with the safe working areas, accesses and that the area is adequately lit.
• Use only the designated access walkways. Do not walk on the cover or deep well safety mesh(es).
• Keep proper foong and balance at all mes. Avoid any sharp edges.
MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION PROCEDURES
• Should you wish to inspect the operaon of the equipment, please observe all necessary precauons, includin g those listed below, which
apply to maintenance procedures.
• The power supply to the equipment must be isolated at the control panel(s) before liing the covers.
• If the equipment has to run with the covers o, all care must be taken to avoid contact with moving parts and electrical components or
conductors.
• Once power has been isolated, the control panel must be kept locked shut to avoid accidental re-connecon whilst work or inspecon is being
carried out.

SELF HELP
In order to minimize the need for dealing with emergency situaons we recommend that Treatment Plants have a Pre-service
Agreement Inspecon, and then is regularly serviced by us or an approved Service Engineers. Provided that your plant is
installed, operated correctly and serviced, you should not need to get into much – if any – self-help.
However, some of the most likely queson and answer situaons are listed below.
Blower
Blower Stopped:
• Check the unit is switched on, the incoming power supply
circuit and fuse.
Blower works but no water distribuon inside the plant:
• Check hose connecons.
• Check distributor heads.
• If the air li pipes are suspected to be blocked, call for service.
• Check regulang valve is not closed.
Plant ooding
• Check for blocked outlet system.
• If pumped outlet, check for pump operaon, check oats and
pump power supply.
Plant odour
• Check blower working.
• If blower working, plant probably needs desludging.
• Check vent circuit is clear.
• Check that the air duct entering the blower housing has
been sealed with foam.
DO’s
Do take out a service agreement and let the experts look aer your plant.
Do contact us for advice if you have any cause for concern.
DON’TS
Don’t pump feed the plant without reference to us.
Don’t use a waste disposal unit as you will be adding to the biological load, and your system may not be large enough to cope
with the waste. If you are unsure please refer to our sales team for guidance.
Don’t throw any medicines down the toilet.
Don’t empty large quanes of bleach or similar cleaning reagents into the system.
Don’t empty cooking oil or similar down the sink.
Don’t cover the plant with soil material or prevent access for service and desludging.
Don’t apply a hose or jet wash to the biological lter unless specically advised to.
Don’t try to enter the plant
Don’t put sanitary towels, inconnence pads, nappies, tampons or other non-biodegradable items’ down the toilet.

4. BACKFILL AND LEVEL
1. Pour 300 mm of water into the tank,
2. Backll with pea gravel or similar. Pea gravel is reliant
on use of correct strapping and anchoring.
Wet site: Make sure the base is adequate to support the
weight of the tank and its contents. If the base is unstable
excavate an addional 250-300mm below the concrete
levels and ll up with compacted hard-core.
Check that the inlet and outlet orientaon is correct
and that the unit is level.
Water levels always higher than backll
5. REMOVE TEMPORARY COVERS AND
CONNECT INLET AND OUTLET PIPEWORK 6. CONTINUE TO BACKFILL
