input hose from water source. Continue pumping to remove remaining water from pump

body.

Field Performance Tips

The Katadyn Mini is designed to remove bacteria and protozoan cysts such as

Legionella, Giardia and Cryptosporidium. To extend ceramic life, always use the best

water source available. Keep the intake prefilter clean and off the bottom. In heavy sediment con-

ditions, wrap a coffee filter or bandanna around the intake prefilter. Where possible, place untreat-

ed water in container and wait for sediment to settle out until water appears clear - then filter from

water above the sediment.

Maintain your Katadyn water system to keep it operating smoothly

1) If handle is hard to push:

Clogged filter pores. If the filter pores of the ceramic are clogged the ceramic needs to

be cleaned. Never use force when pumping. Remove the element by turning it counter-

clockwise as far as it will go and lifting it from the housing. Regenerate the ceramic by

brushing under running water with the supplied cleaning pad until the light, original ceram-

ic colour appears again. When reassembling hold output barb towards logo on pump hous-

ing and turn clockwise as far as it will go while pushing down.

Lubricate pump handle o-ring. Silicone lubricant is provided with your new unit.

Remove handle collar and handle. (Figure 1-1) Clean excess build-up from black rubber o-

ring on bottom of handle. Place a small amount of silicone lubricant all the way around the

o-ring. Re-assemble.

2) If unit pumps easily, but no water flow:

Make sure prefilter is submerged.

Make sure that intake hose is not blocked or pinched.

Hold the filter vertically until water flows.

3) Prefilter: Rinse the prefilter in water to remove any particles that may be caught in the

strainer.

4) Storage: Your Katadyn water system comes with a carry bag for storage. To pre

vent the possibility of cross contamination, stow input hose inside pump body to

avoid contact with the output hose.
