Step 1
Remove all components from box.
Step 2
Place the Nest media with the longest side horizontal on the ground or flat surface and the two holes near the top (shown). You should now have the underside plane of the Nest facing upward.
Step 3
Insert one weighted leg into one angled channel opening near one corner of the underside plane.
Step 4
Repeat with the remaining three weighted legs.
Step 5
Turn the Nest right side up so it is now standing on the four legs (shown) with the two holes near the bottom. Press down briefly at each corner of the media to secure legs.
Step 6
Twist one elbow securely to the threaded end of each diffuser tube.
Step 7
Attach each diffuser with elbow to each end of the manifold (shown).
Step 8
Insert each diffuser tube, flat side first, into each hole until just the elbows and manifold are outside the Nest media (shown). The centre manifold valve will attach to the weighted rubber tubing from your air compressor (not included).
Step 9
Your Nest is ready to be connected to your air compressor (not included) via the center valve on manifold. Use the parts bag components to adapt connection as required.
Step 10
Use a rope of sufficient length for your pond depth to lower the Nest into the water.
Step 11
Tie the float to rope to help you locate the submerged Nest.
