The directions with this unit were less than helpful. To adjust it, I know that I can move the air intake up and down, and the piece of plastic that sits between the venturi and the intake is adjustable as well. What I don't know is the proper adjustment of these to get a nice skimmate. So far, I've got the air set so that it just barely will bulb up and into the collection area. I had it further down, and it filled with water very quickly! Assistance on the proper adjustments would be appreciated.

Push the Venturi tube down all of the way until no bubbles come out, then slowly raise it until bubbles start. I should be about 1/8 inch. I think that setting will give you maximum bubble production. Also make sure that nut over the venturi tube is screwed down tight.

 

On mine I have also dialed back the flow about 1/3 of the way. Just keep in mind that you may not see the results of the changes you make for several hours.
