Noise:
Under normal operation the system will hum due to the motor, impeller and cooling
fan in operation.
Grinding noise:
The stainless steel skirt is loose. Push the stainless skirt up into the guide groove and
turn to the right until you hear a click. With the skirt secure, the noise will go away.
There also might be the chance the stirring shaft was inadvertently bent. If this is the
case, unscrew the bottom pump disk and gently push the impeller until it is centered.
Slurping noise:
Your pump has formed a water vortex like when you are emptying out a bathroom
sink or tub. Add more water or gently disturb water with a spoon. There is no sure
way to eliminate a vortex from forming due to the pump rotation but usually will go
away on its own.
Gurgling + Woosh noise:
The pump is sucking air - add more water. You should also see small bubbles in your
tank.
Food damage:
The pump’s water jet is cracking eggs or damaging fi sh fi llets:
Turn the pump outlet to face the container wall; this will greatly temper the fl ow of
the pump output. It is also good practice to bag eggs to prevent them from being
“blown” around in certain containers.
