Right to bottom edge of the collection cup is a good starting point.

Keep your water levels constant and slowly adjust it until you hit your sweet spot. It took me @2-3 weeks to get mine dialed in. Nice skimmer..

Nice! Adjust slowly. Bottom of the cup, then micro adjustments if you can. Major adjustments to quick will either not skim or flood your cup.

Is there a break in period yet?
