Hello.
I've just had my pro 3 deliverd, and on taking the top off, it seems horrifically complex.
Has anyone used one of these? if so, have you found them easy to deal with?
When your putting the pre-filter at the top, do you find it's actually very effective? Would it be a good idea to add another blue ( coarse ) sponge at the bottom of the filter to act as extra mechanical filtration?
When it comes to maintaining the pump gar etc, I can't easily get to things like the impellors etc. Can I see these as a sealed unit, or is it worth forcing them open for cleaning?
Lastly, how practical is the hand pump in order to prime it? Do I ned to expect to have to give it lots of welly to get it going?
Many thanks
Steve
