octopus nw-110 tuning
So I my skimmer arrived today, an octopus NW-110. No instructions were included in the box. I am just curious as to how I am supposed to tune this and adjust the water level in the skimmer body? Hopefully someone out there with one of these skimmers can chime in and help me out.

I just got my NW-150 today as well. Does it cost too much to print real instructions?

Mine took almost 2 weeks to break in before it was working properly. I wasted my time for about a week trying to "tune" it and thought it might have been defective. I would suggest not wasting your time tuning just yet, just plug it in and let it run for a while - just keep it from overflowing the cup.
That is at least how my recent Octopus experience went and what I would expect if I had to do it again.
