For operation of the pump, a compatible top/cover is required, alternatively the
pump may be installed directly to a compatible reservoir. In both cases, the pump
motor will be held in place by fixation rings to be slid over the pump. In order to
do so, detach the controller unit from the pump motor unit, fasten the pump motor
using the fixation ring and re-attach the controller unit.
