Risk of electric shock – This pump is supplied with a grounding conductor and grounding-type attachment plug. To
reduce the risk of electric shock, be certain that it is connected only to a properly grounded, grounding-type
receptacle. Do not remove the grounding pin from the power cord plug.
Inspect cord for damage before installation and/or maintenance. Replace the entire fountain assembly if damage is
found.
Always disconnect fountain from the power source before beginning any maintenance or work on the pump.
1. Remove assembled fountain from packaging and connect
pump to oating attachment assembly.
○ For 1/4 HP, use the coupler to connect the pump.
2. Choose a fountain head for the desired water effect, and
assemble your choice.
○ For 1/4 HP, use the nozzle adapter.
3. Connect the light to the cord (Part I) by pushing the plug
into the light socket until it is rmly seated. Hand tighten
the nut from the plug to the socket.
4. Connect the cord for LED light to the sensor by pushing

Start-up
Attention! The pump must never run dry.
Possible consequences: The pump will be destroyed.
Protective measures: Check the water level at regular intervals. Always place the unit below water level and make
sure it is floating.
Attention! The installed temperature sensor automatically turns the pump off, if it is overloaded. The pump
automatically switches on again once the motor has cooled down. Risk of accident!
Install the unit so that it is not exposed to direct sun radiation (max. 104 ºF - 40 ºC).
!
Important:
● The unit switches on automatically when power connection is
established.
● The light is designed to turn on when it gets dark, and turn off when it
gets light. To activate the light during daylight hours, cover the sensor.
1. Switching on: Connect power plugs to the socket.
2. Switching off: Disconnect the power plugs.
!
5. Connect the sensor to the transformer by pushing the
plug into the transformer socket until it is rmly seated.

Maintenance and cleaning
Attention! Dangerous electrical voltage.
Possible consequences: Death or serious injuries.
Protective measures:
• Electrical units and installations with a rated voltage of U > 12 V AC or U >30 V DC located in the water: Isolate the
units and installations (switch off and disconnect from the power supply) before reaching into the water.
• Isolate the unit before starting any work.
• Secure the unit to prevent unintentional switching on.
WARNING
This pump uses a very strong magnet to achieve superior performance. When removing the impeller assembly there
will be considerable magnetic force resisting the extraction of the impeller assembly. This is normal. Likewise when
replacing the impeller assembly there will be a strong magnetic force pulling the assembly into the pump to potentially
cause injury to ngers and in rare cases damaging the ceramic shaft or rear bearing. Use thick gloves when replacing
the impeller assembly.
Cleaning the unit
● Regular cleaning of the pump may be necessary depending
upon the environment in which it is operated. Clean the
fountain when a drop in visual performance is detected.
● If necessary, clean the unit with warm water using a soft brush.
●Never use aggressive cleaning agents or chemical solutions.
These could attack the housing surface or impair the function.
●In the event of stubborn furring (calcium deposits), a common
household cleaner free from vinegar and chlorine can be used.
Subsequently, clean the pump thoroughly using warm water.
Cleaning the pump
1. Disconnect the pump and the transformer from the
power source.
○ Disconnect the pump from the oating fountain.
2. Remove the screen and disassemble the impeller
housing to expose the impeller assembly.
3. Remove the impeller assembly by pulling on the back
round plate behind the impeller
4. Use a soft colth or brush to clean the impeller assembly
and the inside of the impeller housing.
●Check parts for damages such as cracked rotor,
cracks in the magnet, and broken plastics. Replace
parts if necessary.
5. Reassemble in the reverse order.
