Troubleshooting - AquaScape AquAFORCE 1000 Mode D'emploi

• 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.
rePlaCing the imPeller/rotor aSSembly
• For Model 5200: when
replacing the Aquaforce
5200 rotor-impeller
assembly into the pump
chamber, note the proper
orientation. the raised key
on the impeller face plate
should be lined up with
the groove in the pump
housing.
• For Models 1000 and 2700: the 1000 (pictured
below) and the 2700 models allow the impeller-rotor
assembly to be inserted into the pump body with no special
alignment guides needed.
