Empty the tanks
How often to empty the weir tanks depends on the nature and amount of cutting being performed, but
we recommend that you empty them when the level of solids in the tanks reaches half full.
To empty the tanks, do the following:
1. Adjust the overflow to stop the flow of water into the final filter.
2. Transfer the water remaining in the weir tanks to the third tank, where it can be removed by the
sump pump.
3. Remove the tanks from the frame and dump out the accumulated solids.
4. Replace the tanks in the frame
Replace the filter elements
Replace the 50 micron filter elements (Part #A-00750-6) when the pressure drop across the filters
exceeds 5 psig. To determine the pressure drop, subtract the pressure reading obtained from the gauge
on the outlet side of the filters from the reading obtained from the inlet side of the filters. Readings must
be taken while the pump is operating.
