How to Fill and Empty the Tank
1. Remove the Fill Plug (No.33) from the Upper Tank Cover (No.12).
2. To fill tank with water, refer to Fig. A. Insert the Funnel (No.77) into the tank, then use a cup
or the Siphon Pump (No.76) and a bucket to fill the tank. Use the water level gauge on the
side of the tank to measure desired water level in the tank.

frame.
NOTE:
Fill the tank only with tap water. Add 1 water-purification tablet (1 packet is included.). Never
use pool chlorine or chlorine bleach. This will damage the tank and void the warranty.
Add a water purification tablet every 6 months or as needed. If water remains cloudy, replace
the water in the tank.
Water from the tank is not suitable for consumption. Dispose the water after pumping it out
from the tank.
WATER LEVEL
See Fig. A. The water level gauge is on the side of the tank. The maximum fill level is 6.
Never fill it over this limit. Filling the tank over this limit will void the warranty.
The resistance depends on the water level in the tank. Water level 1 is the lowest resistance.
Level 6 is the highest resistance.
