Ensure that you have the correct number of people to lift the aquarium
according to its weight and size.
Ensure that anyone lifting the aquarium is physically suitable for such an
operation and has been instructed in the correct methods of lifting heavy
objects.
Once the aquarium is correctly aligned with the cabinet, check that the
cabinet has not moved. If necessary readjust the position of the cabinet.
For units with adjustable legs: Using a spirit level on the top surface of the
glass tank, adjust the height of the legs to level the aquarium. Make sure
that all legs are touching the floor.
WARNING: If you are not experienced in the construction of self-
assembly furniture or the installation of aquarium systems,
seek suitably qualified assistance.
ATTENTION: The top board of the cabinet (Part C) and some other parts
of the cabinet (in certain models) are packed under the
aquarium. In order to retrieve these parts, remove the
aquarium from its packaging. Make sure to avoid contact
between the Bulkheads on the bottom of the tank and the
floor, by placing the glass aquarium on Styrofoam parts that
are used in the package.
WARNING: Read before lifting the glass aquarium onto the cabinet.
NOTE: It is important to assemble the REEFER
™
in the order indicated.
