Minor problem with mounting RO Top-off

[jrandreassen]

Hi...
I bought some Tunze Holders to mount my RO Top-off(2 Float switches).
I'm having some problems with mounting it, I need to extend the rails to the bottom of the sump(25").
I must be missing some parts, I've talked with the LFS(AquaTek) and they were going to try to get some replacements.

The next issue is to try to find a way to mount it on the holder.
If you had a broken Turbelle or other plastic part that is no longer working that I could aquire to drill a hole in perhaps ???
Any Ideas would be welcome
Thanks
JR

What holder set do you have?

Let's see...
I got two, 3000.250 and 7072.300
I think..
I'm not sure if it was original bag's

You need extensions to get to the bottom, each set adds 14". they are part 3000.26. As for the float mounting, this would probably fall into the realm of DIY, I would take a piece of acrylic and drill it so you can use plastic screws to mount it to the rail and then attach your float to the acrylic.

You need extensions to get to the bottom, each set adds 7". they are part 3000.26.

I have a total of 4 extentions, so I'm good on that one.
The main thing I need is the do-hickie that couples them together.
There were none in the packages, I drilled a hole in one of the mounting blocks and got two mounted together. I just need one more.
I'm also out of screws.
As far as the DIY mounting goes, I'll find a way.
Thanks

I can get those to you. I need fish food myself so today or tomorrow I will go to AquaTek and drop off the pieces.

I brought a couple pieces by, Bruce has them.

I got them...
Many thanks...
I used a piece of L-shaped clear plastic trim from Home Depot that I tie-stripped to the holder...
Works like a champ...
Thanks again...
