Precautions
Before using the Maxspect™Gyre System
1. Remove any plastic bags and packaging material protecting the pump and controller unit.
Safety on Power Supply
1. Power Source –Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding-type
plug. A polarized plug has two blades with one wider than the other. A grounding-type
plug has two blades and a third grounding prong. The wide blade or the third prong is
provided for your safety. If the plug does not fit into your outlet, consult an electrician for
replacement of the obsolete outlet.
2. Power Cord Protection –The power supply cords should be routed so that they are not
likely to be walked on or pinched by items placed upon or against them. Never take hold
of the plug or cord if your hand is wet, and always grasp the plug body when connecting
or disconnecting it.
3. Installation –Install indoor only, and use the attachments and accessories provided and
specified by the manufacturer.
Safety on Magnet Mount
1. CAUTION - Very strong magnetic mount included in the package.
2. CAUTION - keep the magnet mount out of reach of children, as there is risk of severe
personal injury otherwise!
3. Handle the magnet mount with their proper handle, and do not bring the both side
together directly. Do not put your fingers between the magnet mounts.
4. Magnet mount can attract metal objects, keep clear of metal objects when handling the
magnetic mount to avoid injuries.
5. Magnet mount can also damage electronic and magnetic storage devices such as USB
storage devices, pacemakers, credit cards, etc. Keep clear of these devices when
handling the magnetic mount to avoid damaging them.
Before using this Maxspect™ Gyre System please read these operating
instructions carefully. Take special care to follow the safety suggestions
listed below.
Afterwards keep this manual handy for future reference.

Precautions
Safety on Pulsing Motion generated by the Gyre System
1. Making pulses and waves with the Gyre System can place additional stress on the
aquarium glass/acrylic and its joints. Not all aquariums are able or designed to withstand
this stress and failure of the glass/acrylic and/or joints could result. Please consult with
your aquarium manufacturer to determine if the aquarium construction is adequate to
withstand the additional stress generated by the pulses and waves motion. Please also
check to assure that your aquarium stand or furniture is properly leveled, which will help
reduce the additional stress resulting from wave generation.
2. Maxspect DISCLAIMS AND WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR, damage to any aquarium or their
surroundings, water damage, or any other consequential damages resulting from wave
generation. MAKE PULSES AND WAVES AT YOUR OWN RISK.
Operation –Controller Unit
1. Operation –Always follow the operation instructions set forth in this manual when using
this controller unit.
2. Heat –The controller unit should be situated away from heat sources such as radiators,
and do not expose to excessive heat such as sunshine, fire or the like.
3. Moisture –To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose the controller unit
to rain, moisture, dripping or splashing.
4. Water Damage –DO NOT immerse in water. If the controller unit falls into the water,
DO NOT reaches for it! First unplug it and then retrieve it. If electrical components of the
appliance get wet, unplug the appliance immediately.
Operation –Gyre Pump
1. Placement –The Gyre pump creates high levels of flow within your aquarium. Please
place the Gyre in an area where corals are not too close to the output flow of the pump.
2. Stall –In the event of a motor stall, the Gyre pump may have stopped for a few possible
reasons. You should first check that there is not something blocking the rotors from
spinning.
3. Overheating –The Gyre pump is designed to run underwater. Do not run the Gyre
pump when it is not submerged in water. Doing so will cause the Gyre pump module to
overheat and could damage the pump component.
4. Cleaning –Please follow the instruction in this manual to clean the Gyre regularly.
5. Power Outage –During power outage, if a battery backup accessory is added to the
Gyre pump, the pump will automatically switch to Battery Backup mode during a power
outage. The pumps will run at the minimum speed to maximize their run time during this
critical period.
