3. Insert the small end of the copper tube through the center hole of the plat-
form and secure with the short screws and corresponding nuts. (Fig. 3)

Slight twisting may help to push the rubber neck through the hole more -
easily. Note: Be gentle with the bulb cover since it is made of glass.
Assembly and Instructions for Use
1. Unpack the product. Wipe off dust with a damp cloth. (Fig 1)
2. Familiarize yourself with the pump. The pump speed is controlled by
the switch located at the front of the pump. The speed is indicated by
a plus (+) and minus (-) sign. To increase the speed, move the switch
slowly downward in the direction of the plus sign. You will hear a click
as the switch moves to each speed level. At its highest speed level,
the switch will cease to move any further. To decrease the pump
speed, move the switch upward toward the minus sign. Similarly, at its
lowest speed, the switch will cease to move any further (Fig 2).
NOTE: It is recommended the pump be set at its highest speed dur-
ing assembly and later adjusted to a lower setting if desired. Be sure
to unplug the pump before adjusting the speed setting.

12. Plug the cord into 120V household outlet. The fountain is controlled by
a switch located on the power cord. If pump does not operate, rotate
in-line switch once to turn “on” and once to turn “off”.
Note: Ensure that the electrical cord loops below the electrical outlet to
form a “Drip Loop”. This will prevent water from running down the
electrical cord into the electrical outlet. (Fig. 11)

Troubleshooting
• If the pump fails to operate, check the following:
Check the circuit breaker, or try a different outlet to make sure the
pump is getting electrical power.
NOTE: Always disconnect from electrical outlet before handling the pump.
• If the pump gurgles, spews, or “burps”:
Check the water level to make sure the pump has enough water
to function.
•Obtaining a desired water level:
Check the water level daily the first week to mea sure the rate of
evaporation; refill with water as needed.
•If water is splashing outside the fountain:
Adjust the flow control valve to a lower setting on the pump.
Maintenance
• To clean the pump:
Unplug from electrical outlet. Remove it from the base of the
fountain. Use a small brush or stream of water to remove any
debris (Fig 12).
• To keep water clean:
Periodically change water and clean the product according to the water
condition. Keeping the water clean prevents the water from becoming
sticky and forming micro-organisms. We recommend distilled water to
prevent mineral build-up.
• To clean off hard water deposits on the base:
Soak the container in a mixture of vinegar and water to clean and remove
any mineral build-up.
• Keeping the water at an optimum level:
Add water periodically to keep water level at an optimum level to avoid
shortening the life of the pump.
NOTE: Never let the pump run dry, as this will shorten the life of the pump.
• Fountain storage
Unplug the fountain from the electrical outlet, empty the water, and store
rocks and fountain in a dry, cool place.
• Changing the light bulb
First unplug fountain and let bulb cool down. Remove the bulb cover by
holding glass bulb cover in dry hand and rubber neck with other hand. Slowly
pull apart. Slight twisting may help to loosen. Be gentle with bulb cover since
it is glass. Never pull on cord. Next pull bulb straight out and replace with new
bulb, inserting prongs into the holes. Replace bulb cover securely.
Caution:
All servicing
of this fountain
must be
performed
by authorized
HoMedics
service
personnel only.
