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.
WARNING: Read before lifting the glass aquarium onto the cabinet.
NOTE: It is important to assemble the REEFER
™

NOTE: The REEFER
™
