I'm having a hard time because there were no instructions in English that came with my skimmer. I'm having to figure it out without having ever used one.

I secure it to the side..add a little water for the pump and plug it in. I have the blue dots lined up, and it fills up...but it fills beyond and threatens to overflow each time. The air flow is off when this happens. How do I set it up so that the water level remains below the uhh...collection cup, I'm not sure what the proper term is..?
Thank you soooooo much!
