Just beginning. Can a couple of the "air out" connectors be blocked until I am ready to expand to more air stones ? thx !

As you can see in the images, the volume of air pumped can be controlled by the knob atop the pump. So, I see no reason why you can't block two of the four outlets as long as you don't turn the output volume to max.

Sure. However I just used a T connector and doubled the air to a single stone.

I have three of these, two in a koi pond and a small one in an aquarium. For the small pump I short out the two inside outlets with a short piece of tubing and run two lines to the aquarium. For the larger pumps with eight outlets I short out four on each pump. One pump runs to one end of the pond and the other one to the other end. The runs are long and go deep. Using only 4 of 8 outlets gives much higher output. I have found that you should not leave any outlets disconnected. You lose too much air. I really like these pumps.

Hello everyone from this forum: I am Rose, Jack's wife, I have access on his email... sorry he can no longer reply to your messages, I am still very sad, he passed away on June 29, 2014...

I am looking at the aquarium he built which was made of plywood with fiber glass, he has some tilapia, I am feeding them for him...

No, you may be able to let air out while it is conected but not in a specific amount.

The best thing to do is cut all the bottom just use top rim put insert in that. No problem with roots all tangled in basket. Just cut em leave top rim. No hassles with roots. Love clone box. Keep a eye on jets they clog .

I put it in the upper socket and the lower socket is totally accessible, however the other way around it would be blocking the other outlet.

i didn't have that problem at all !!!the only suggestion i have is to make sure the plugs are pushed all the way in !!!good luck.

I would advise adding this hole near the outlet to prevent an air lock condition in the event the pump continue to run when water has dropped below the impeller. You may notice the pump already has a small hole at its base but it is still possible to have excess air build up whereby prevent water from getting pumped because the air was not able to be purged. I did this experiment myself when I asked myself the same question are are asking and concluded adding the extra hole as instructed was a good idea. I added the hole just above the threaded fitting on the PCV pipe and the pump work great. You may notice a small amount of water shoot out the hole when the water has reached its lowered point in the pump cycle but that is normal.

if they are not pregap you will need to ...look on the forums for the proper gap for your plugs and ensure they are correct

HI , I am TIM , Your pretty much done . That's the problem with that plane , I used Velcro soft side cut small piece cut hole in center to protect switch . Try a switch off of an air hog , But you will have to solder . The 781 is a nice plane , has landing gear .Last resort , Use straight pin to turn off or on .

I have to disagree with the other posters here. Maybe my Airscape is defective, but there is not a perfect seal even when you push the handle down ('closing' the air valve). Because of this, any extra pressure that builds up due to outgassing will bleed off to the same pressure as the surrounding air.

i had the same issue. what i did was cut some of the green tubing to go over the connections on the pick up tube. to seal it up. that's where it is sucking air in. so i cut pieces about 1" long to fit over each connection on that pickup tube. and problem solved.

It does not support the Air. It has the old larger connection. The Air needs the new smaller "Lightning" connection.

Just follow the instructions that came in the box, but the connectors don't fit flush on the bottom layer squares. The two bottom holes go on the wires leaving the two top holes of the connector above the square. Thats where you can attach the next layer of the squares. Honestly i have to refer to the instructions each time i make them so i would hold on to them as long as possible or download another set, which they should be online or there should be a tutorial on youtube. Just beware you can pinch your fingers pretty awful in them.

keep air out, even a little can turn it into a brick. It is recommended to put stones or other objects into the container to displace the air inside the container.

If your talking about the 4 pin molex connectors they attach to your power supply. A suggestion get rid of the stock fans they don't move very much air

Where the air tubes connect to the air pump there's a dual connector that should have little closure wheels that you need to turn to open the lines, don't ask which way is open and which is closed I'm not even sure. I try to remember righty tighty, lefty loose-y, but what you really need to do is play around with it.

Any air leak upstream of the pump will kill the draw. The input fitting came loose on mine and allowed air to slip past the o-ring, killing the draw for me at one point. Any obstruction will do the same. Also, if the hose/tube you're using for pickup gets locked against the bottom (like putting your hand to a shop-vac hose), then you'll get obvious results, so be sure to use a stand-off and/or filter screen to help prevent this.

I have to agree with the other replies you recieved. If you have the "hog ring" style (round C shaped spring around the square shank) it's going to be tough. Not Dewalt's fault. I have had air tools for years with the same setup. You want the socket to hold. So yes, place the socket on the floor, line up the square and press down hard. Getting it back off is going to take some wiggling for sure too.
