ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
1. Make sure you are assembling your fountain on a level surface.
2. This fountain will need to be installed on a surface capable of holding a minimum of 46 pounds in a ½ square
foot area.
3. Place the adhesive dots on the bottom of the basin to protect furniture surface that fountain is to be placed on.
4. Position the basin (FT-159C) where the fountain is to be installed, ensuring that it is level.
5. Feed the pump cord all the way through the hole in the basin.
6. Leave enough cord that you can work with the pump, but not so much that it fills the pump well.
7. See enclosed stopper assembly instructions and complete before continuing.
8. Place the 1/2” end of the non kink tubing onto the water outlet fitting and tighten the clamp.
a. Note – if you are using the hose clamp as a flow restrictor it must be installed now
9. Coil the tubing up in the basin with the pump. The tubing may need to be cut to aid in the fit.
10. Place the pump on its side for better fit.
11. Place the pump cover (FT-159B) over the pump while feeding the tubing assembly up through the pump
cover.
12. Place the 5/8” clear tubing end of the assembly onto the copper pipe protruding from the bottom of the water
feature (FT-159A).
13. Place the water feature onto the pump cover ensuring that it is level.
14. Fill basin with approximately 1 ¼ gallons of water.
a. Note – do not allow pump to run dry as it will cause damage to the pump.
WINTER CARE AND GENERAL FOUNTAIN INSTRUCTIONS
-W I N T E R C A R E -
Fountain bowls/tops and other fountain components, which collect water, should not be left outside in the winter since
any component, which fills with water and freezes may crack. Likewise components such as pedestals, which remain
in a basin, filled with water, which then freezes, may also crack or crumble. Ideally, therefore, a fountain should always
be stored indoors or in a dry protected place such as a covered porch away from the elements. However, if a fountain
must be left outside:
(1) Remove pump, rubber stoppers, drainpipes, finials, and other small components for storage indoors. Note
that stoppers or drainpipes are removed to allow drainage in the event water accumulates in any basin. Compression
stoppers may be left on the pump cord for easier assembly next season.
(2) Raise fountain base from ground with wood strips so that base will not freeze to the ground surface.
(3) Cover or wrap the fountain with burlap or other absorbent material (old blanket or towel) and then cover
securely with plastic, making sure that water will not accumulate in the basin or other fountain component and freeze;
(4) Check fountain periodically to insure that plastic is secure and water is not accumulating in any fountain
component.
-G E N E R A L F O U N T A I N T I P S -
Install fountains on a level surface. You will need a properly grounded 110-volt (AC only) GFCI protected receptacle
near the fountain for your pump. All pumps are submersible and must be completely underwater to function properly.
Test all pumps and adjust to full output prior to assembly. It is not recommended that fountains be placed directly on
grass or dirt. Position the channel opening at the base of each fountain toward the electrical outlet to be used since the
pump cord will be threaded through this opening.
