Troubleshooting - AquaScape AquaForce 4000-8000 Instructions Et Entretien

• Remove the four screws that hold the water cover
chamber and inspect the impeller rotor assembly.
• If your rotor assembly impeller and internal pump body
have excessive scale build-up, clean with a mild acid, such
as white vinegar or non-abrasive calcium, lime and rust
remover product using a sponge or soft-bristled brush that
won't scratch the stainless steel. Removing scale build-up
will allow your pump to run like new again.
