TROUBLE SHOOTING AND MAINTENANCE
Orifice Assy: Mineraldeposits on orificecan cause waterflow to spurt or not regulate.
Mineral deposits may be removed from the orifice with a small round file or
small diameter wire. CAUTION: DO NOT file or cut orifice material.
Stream Regulator: If orifice is clean, regulate flow asin “STREAM HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT”
instructions on page 4. If replacement is necessary, see parts list for correct regulator
part number.
Actuation of Quick Connect Water Fittings: Fountainis provided with lead-free connectors
which utilize an o-ring water seal. To remove tubing from the fitting, relieve
water pressure, push in on the gray collar while pulling on the tubing. (See Fig.2)
To insert tubing, push tube straight into fitting until it reaches a positive stop,
approximately 3/4".
FOR PARTS, CONTACT YOUR LOCAL DISTRIBUTOR OR CALL 1.800.323.0620
PRINTEDINU.S.A.
STREAM HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT: Stream height is factory set at
35PSI. If supply pressure varies greatly from this,remove items
7 & 8 (See Fig. 3) and adjust screw on item 17. Clockwise
adjustmentwill raise stream and counter-clockwise adjustment
will lower stream. For best adjustment, stream should hit basin
approx.6-1/2"from bubbler.
