Finally dug out all the odds and ends from box of used fish stuff that came with the purchase of an old tank (75g).

This is an old european 220v eheim, maybe 30 years old. The motor runs (I have a transformer) but I haven't tested it with water because I don't know how to put it together. I can't find any info googling its model number nor any diagrams on eheim's website. Can someone tell me if this filter is complete ? Anyone has an old manual ? Which canister filter is this comparable to ? I can't figure out how to connect everything. There seems to be 3 different diameter hoses/tubing. Are intake tubes thicker than outflowing tubes ? Is there a picture of a cross section of this filter ?

What is A ?
C is spray bar with 1 end stopped up.
B D have no holes.
E is intake. F is for ?
N O P Q go in the canister.
M may be a rubber ring to seal the lid to the canister.
K has somehing to do with A ?

I love puzzles and have seemingly tried all sorts of combinations available.

If someone has a lot of time, a very good heart and likes puzzles, please put the letters together. I would be forever in your debt !
