Directions For Use
Simply fill up the pouch of your choice at a lake, stream or river, screw the filter directly onto the pouch and:

1) Squeeze the bag and filter water into your water bottle or container of choice.
2) Drink directly from the filter which has a built in push pull cap for on/off functions.
3) Attach the filter onto most threaded water bottles including 2 liter bottles.

A Water Filtration System that looks promising.
