Filtering Pad Insertion

BUY ORIGINAL BUON VINO FILTER PADS
Look for the Buon Vino Trademark IMPORTANT NOTICE Coarse Side Coarse side always faces towards black hand wheels on all three types of pads.
For optimum filtration we recommend the use of #1, #2 and #3 filter pads that are packaged and marked Buon Vino. Use of other pads may give you inferior results. Buon Vino filters have been designed to use original Buon Vino filter pads. Attempts to use filter pads that are not marked Buon Vino Manufacturing may result in problems with filtration and could affect the performance of the filter. Note: using NON-original Filter Pads may cause poor quality filtration and wine clarity. Warranty may be void if original filter pads are not used. Contact your local dealer or call Buon Vino directly.

Filter Pad Directions

A. The #1 pads are a coarse pad, mainly used for heavy wines. These pads will produce minimal clarity in the wine. They are used as a first filtration to extract the larger suspended particles. B The #2 pads are finer, and are used for the brightening and polishing of the wine. You should notice a brightness and clarity. These pads remove smaller suspended particles and are used for second filtration. If you prefer to further enhance the wine or if you plan on bottling, use our #3 pads. These pads should only be used after your wine has been filtered with our #2 pads at least once. The #3 pads assist in removing the high quantities of the yeast in the wine.
7. Insert the intake hose, which contains a stainless steel wire and an antisediment tip into the inlet on the pump (B on the diagram). 8. Insert the long, slightly larger diameter outtake tube into the exit nozzle (C on the diagram). 9. Place the intake hose into the wine to be filtered. Next place the outtake
tube and the small tube attached to the drip tray into the container which will hold the filtered wine.
If you desire, you may place the tube attached to the drip tray into a separate container and refilter this wine at the end. 10. You are now ready to filter. Plug in the cord and turn on the switch located at the rear of the filter. 11. The pump may initially be dry, and will not draw the wine quickly. If this happens force some wine into the pump using the intake tube. 12. For your convenience you may use the pump for racking. For setup, follow the same directions as suggested for cleaning the pump (bypassing the filter plates). Warning: this feature must not be used if there are solids in the wine, i.e. oak chips, elderberries, etc. warranty will be void.
NOTE: One set of pads should effectively filter 23 litres (5 gallons) of wine. Remove the pads and replace with a new set after above mentioned quantity use. Discard after use. D. If you have additional wine to be filtered you must allow the motor to cool for 45 - 60 minutes before recommencing filtration.
Filter Set-up
It is very important to follow these instructions
Maintenance
When you have finished, clean the pump. It is important to keep your filter clean. 1. Remove the short tube which had been placed on the fitting under the drip tray. Disconnect the short tube which leads from the pump to the first filtering plate and attach the drip tray tube to the outlet portion of the pump, leaving the intake tube connected to the pump. You now have a direct line through the pump, bypassing the filter plates. Pump clean cold water through the pump. Place the intake tube into approx. 15 litres or 3 gallons of clean water and the outtake tube into an empty container. Turn on the pump, allowing the clean water to flush out the pump. 2. Turn off and unplug the cord. 3. Remove the filtering plates and hoses and clean. When cleaning the drip tray be very careful. Do not allow any water to get into the motor section. 4. From time to time, place some petroleum jelly on the threaded portion of the two side bolts, keeping them lubricated. 5. See our website trouble-shooting page - www.buonvino.com
Important: Do not let the pump run dry. Wine must be racked or decanted at least once during the normal process of winemaking. Note: Prior to filtering, rack your wine into a new container.
Instructions for use

1. Read Filter pad directions and motor directions first 2 Remove the pads from the package and place them in a clean container with enough fresh water to cover the pads and allow them to soak for approximately 1 minute. Make sure the pads are not bunched together while soaking, allow the water to saturate on both sides of the 3 pads.
3. Attach the small diameter piece of hose supplied to the fitting located under the drip tray (A on diagram). This same hose may be used for racking and cleaning your pump. 4. Loosen the two black handwheels and remove the two central plates. 5. Remove the pads from the water and begin inserting them into the filter body. The coarse side will be facing the handwheels and holes will be aligned (see diagram). The pads have a tight fit. Make sure to press down on the pad so that both sides of theT are sitting on the two side bolts and the pad is straight along the top. Place the pad into the filter body, next place one of the central filtering plates, insert the second pad and the next plate in the same manner, followed by the last pad. Once the pads and plates are inserted, all the pads and the plates should be even around the top. Note: The pads are cut in a T formation with one side of the T higher than the other. The hooks on both sides of the filter plates also have the same offset. This allows you to insert the pads and plates properly. 6. Tighten the handwheels to ensure a tight seal on the pads.
Suggestions for Good Filtration

A B Filtration is the last step in wine making. Its purpose is to further clarify and help remove unnecessary by-products and high percentage of yeast in the wine. In order to achieve optimum results we suggest that a waiting period of at least 5 days must elapse between filtrations as you progress to tighter (lower micron size) pads. To further enhance and maintain the wine, it should be properly balanced and stabilized before filtering. Use a commercially accepted stabilizer like TANNISOL, which contains the proper percentages of products in combination form and simplifies the process of wine stabilization (Follow proper directions). The Buon Vino Filter Pads, Tannisol or any necessary product and instructions can be obtained from the same retailer.
