Tunze 9004

My skimmer was not working so I took it apart and cleaned it. When I started to put it back together, I can't remember how to get it? Pump works when plugged in but no pictures in manual to show what goes where. Help please.

Thank you. The pictures were some help but none show the inside. When you strip the inside for cleaning, there is no guidance for re-assembly. Which way do the plates set? How does the pump set? Which side does the air hose travel? This failed just before I was traveling out of town and put me in a panic. I ended up using an old skimmer that sounds like a trashing machine. The tank is in our bedroom and my wife was not happy with the racket at night. When I returned home, everything survived. I spent two hours assembling and disassembling the skimmer until I found the correct combination. I tried to take pictures for next time. I was very frustrated that Tunze did not have adequate directions or a video for this model.
