A fresh water supply and sewer drain are required for
cleaning the Bio-Kinetic system.
1. Remove the Bio-Kinetic system from the service
container. Rinsethe containerandlid. Rotate thefour
lockinglugs tothe outboardpositionon theBio-Kinetic
system. Remove the gasketed discharge flange
assembly from the flow deck and rinse it with water.
2. Grasp the top flange of the system with one hand
and insert the disassembly tool beneath each of
the strap handles on the flow deck. Pull up on the
disassembly tool to remove the flow deck and internal
systemcomponentsfrom thecontactchamber andset
aside. Use the water hose and spray nozzle to wash
the inside of the contact chamber.
3. Use the water hose and spray nozzle to wash off the
filter media. Continue spraying until all sludge and
wastewater have been flushed from the media. Invert
the filter assembly and flush accumulated material
from the baffled perimeter settling zone. Inspect the
perimeter settling zone to be certain that it is totally
clean. Check the flow equalization ports to be sure
they are clean and unobstructed.
4. Wash off any debris that has accumulated on the
surface of the flow distribution deck and baffle wall
shroud. Lay the assembly down on its side and
removethe fourwingnuts onthebottom. Remove and
wash the bottom deck plate.
CAUTION: Do not break or damage the molded
plastic tabs on the edge of the bottom deck plate.
Do not remove the remaining deck plates at this time.
Stand the assembly upright and lift up on the flow
distribution deck to separate it from the baffle wall
shroudand deckplates. Youmay findit helpful tohold
the baffle shroud between your feet when lifting up on
the flow deck.

wallshroud. Do notremove thethrough boltsfrom the
flow distribution deck. Rinse the flow distribution deck
thoroughly inside and out. Inspect the weir and final
discharge zone to be sure they are completely clean.
5. Liftupthe bafflewall shroudto remove itfrom thedeck
plates. Rinsethe insideand outside ofthe shroudand
setit aside. Takethe cleaned,roundbottom deckplate
and set it on the floor with the engraved name facing
down.
6. Remove the top deck plate from the remaining stack
and wash off both sides. When cleaned, set it on top
of the cleaned, round bottom deck plate. Repeat this
procedure with each deck plate until all plates are
cleaned and reassembled into a single stack. Each
deck plate is molded with four circular depressions in
the bottom side of the plate and four round stand-off
posts in the top side of the plate. When restacking the
clean deck plates, make sure the four depressions on
the bottom engage the top of the four posts below. All
deck plates must be placed onto the stack baffle side
up (engraving down). When properly assembled, all
edgesof eachplate shouldbevertically aligned.
7. Lowerthebaffle wallshroud overthe assembled stack
of deck plates. The two large V-notches in the shroud
should engage the smaller notches on the edge of the
deck plates. Check the four leveling lugs on the flow
deck. They must be unscrewed until they are flush
withthe bottomof theflowdeck. Now positionthe flow
distribution deck above the baffle wall shroud so that
the outlet of the flow distribution deck is directly
opposite the two large V-notches in the shroud. Insert
each of the four through bolts through the holes in the
topofthebaffleshroudand intothestack ofdeckplates.
Lower the flow distribution deck until it fully engages

the top of the baffle shroud. Push each through bolt
down into the assembly as far as it will go.
8. Laytheassemblyon its sideandpushthe throughbolts
through the bottom deck plate. Fasten a wing nut to
each of the four through bolts where they project
through the bottom deck plate. While tightening each
wing nut, make sure the molded plastic tabs on the
bottom deck plate engage the slots on the edge of the
shroud. Tighten enough to insure all three tabs are
fully engaged into the three slots in the shroud.
9. Lubricate the grommet in the outlet opening of the
contact chamber. Grasp the strap handles and lower
theflowdeck andinternalcomponents intothe cleaned
contact chamber making sure to align the flow deck
outlet with the outlet of the contact chamber. Apply a
moderate amount of downward force until the outlet of
the flow distribution deck aligns with the outlet of the
contact chamber.
10. Place the assembled Bio-Kinetic system back into the
cleanedservice container. Placethe dischargeflange
assembly onto the flow distribution deck. Now place
theservice containercoverinto positionbyaligning the
fourholes inthe coverwith thelocking lug bolts. Adda
wing nut to each of the lug bolts to hold the cover in
place. Return the container to your service stock.
