This skimmer has been out of stock forever. I'm glad you were able to pick one up! I said forget it and went with a JNS WS-1.
Good luck!

Leave the cup high for now until you start getting a consistent foam head in the body. After that you can lower the cup incrementally and monitor for an hour or so between adjustments until you get the skimmate you desire.
