ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
1. Make sure you are assembling your fountain on a level surface capable of holding
a minimum of 435 pounds with approximately a 3 square foot footprint.
2. Position the basin (FT-285C) where the fountain is to be installed, ensuring that it
is level.
3. Feed the pump cord through the hole in the bottom of the base, leaving enough
cord to pull the pump out of the pump cover.
4. Position the base (FT-286E) on top of its respective basin.
5. To ensure a level installation, bring the pump cord out through the channel in the
bottom of the basin.
6. See enclosed stopper assembly instructions and complete before
continuing.
7. To ensure a proper installation, make sure all components are centered and level
before proceeding onto the next component.
8. Place the pump inside the base (FT-286E).
9. Place the pump cover (FT-287C) over the pump.
10.Place the water feature (FT-287A) on top of the pump cover
11.Connect the ½” end of the tubing assembly to the pipe protruding down from the
bottom of the water feature (FT-287A).
12.Place the pump cover door (FT-287D) in the pump access opening of the pump
cover.
13.Place the spiller stopper (FT-287B) inside the top of the water feature (FT-287A).
14.Fill the base with approximately 20 gallons of water.
a. NOTE: Do not run fountain without sufficient water. If the pump is allowed to
run dry, it can damage 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.
