ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
1. Make sure you are assembling your fountain on a level surface
2. Position the basin (FT-49B) where the fountain is to be installed, ensuring that it is level.
3. Feed the pump cord all the way through the hole in the basin and run the cord through the channel in the
bottom.
4. Leave enough cord that you can work with the pump.
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. Place a hose clamp over one end of the ½” non kink tubing

a. Note – one of the hose clamps may be placed on the tubing prior to installation as a flow restrictor if
necessary

feature (FT-49A).

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.
