FOUNTAIN ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Unpack the contents of the box and check to make sure that all items are accounted for and in good condition.
2. Select a flat, level surface for the assembly and final location of your fountain.
3. Place the Basin in the desired location and route the Pump power cord from the underside of the Basin through the notch provided as shown in Figure 1.
4. Adjust the Flow Control on the Pump to the “Maximum (+)” setting.
5. Assemble the copper frame by joining the Upper Tubes to the Upper Frame and then screw the Lower Tubes to the Upper Tubes. Once the entire frame is
assembled, insert the Lower Tubes through the Base Plate and secure by tightening the large nuts and washers (See fig.2).
6. Insert the one end of the Rubber Hose on to the Adapter on the Lower Tube. Insert the other end of the Rubber Hose onto the outlet of the Pump.
Position the Frame Assembly with the attached Base Plate onto the Basin. Align the holes in the corners of the Base Plate with the holes in the Basin
and secure using the (4) small Screws (See fig.3).
7. Assemble the Slate Panels together by overlapping the Panels from the top of one to the bottom of the next one (Note: the Slate Panel with (2) Holes
should be at the bottom end of the group of assembled Panels) Use the Long Screws, Washers and Cap Nuts to secure the Panels.
8. Hang the Panels from the top of the copper frame using the (2) Copper Clips, (2) Long Screws, (2) Washers and (2) Cap Nuts (See fig.4).
9. Attach the lights into the sockets on the Lampshade and route the Cord Assembly to secure each end into the clips provided as shown in Figure 5.
10. Attach the Lampshade to the Upper Frame using the (2) Short Screws, Washers and Cap Nuts. (Note: Route the power cord out through the back
clearance and plug the end of the power cord into the Transformer - see fig.5)
11. Place the decorative pebbles on the Base Plate and fill the Basin with clean water to within 2” of the top of the Basin.
12. In order to better stabilize the fountain in your garden during bad whether, please attach the fountain to something nearby that strong enough to stand the
blow. The chain on the back of the fountain is used to better secure the fountain from tilting.
13. Plug the power cords from the Pump and the Transformer into a properly grounded, grounding type receptacle (GFCI). The fountain will begin to flow
(see HINTS & TROUBLESHOOTING” for additional information.
14. To eliminate the possibility of water damage to areas around your fountain, check for leaks and excessive splashing after the initial setup of your fountain.
It is highly recommended that this fountain be placed in an area that will not be damaged should the area come in contact with liquid.
15. Do not leave your fountain running for extended periods of time when no one is present to observe the performance.
16. Check the area around your fountain on a regular basis to ensure that there is no leakage.
MAINTENANCE OF YOUR FOUNTAIN:
1. Keep water clean - using clean water will reduce mineral deposits and improve water clarity.
2. Clean the fountain periodically to prevent mineral deposits and contamination. Use warm soapy water and a stiff brush for heavily stained surfaces.
Do not use harsh chemicals as this will damage the finished surface and void the warranty.
3. Add clean water periodically to ensure that the pump is fully submersed in water.
4. Disconnect the power and empty the basin if the fountain will not be used for an extended time.
5. If installed outdoors and in a freeze-area of the country, ensure that all water is removed and the unit is completely dry. This product is NOT to be
operated below 41°F (5°C) freeze damage may occur.

PUMP INSTRUCTIONS:
SPECIAL WARNINGS & CAUTIONS:
WARNINGS:
1. To reduce the risk of electric shock, connect only to a properly grounded, grounding type receptacle (GFCI).
2. Do not exceed the voltage shown on the pump.
3. Always disconnect the pump from the power source prior to beginning any maintenance or work on the pump or fountain.
4. Inspect the power cord for damage before installation and/or maintenance. Replace the entire pump if damage is found.
5. For pumps with a 3-prong, grounded type plug, do not remove the grounding pin from the plug on the power cord.
CAUTIONS:
1. The fountain shall not be installed within 10 feet (3.05m) of a pool or spa. When the pump is connected to a GFCI protected circuit, the fountain unit has
the option of being installed no less than 5 feet (1.52m) from a pool or spa.
2. Use only with portable, self contained fountains no larger than 5’ in any direction.
3. Use a proper power source as indicated on the pump label. Keep the cord away from high temperature and/or heat sources.
4. Do not lift the pump by its power cord.
5. Keep the fountain out of reach of children.
6. Do not let the pump run dry. Pump must be completely submerged for proper operation and cooling.
7. Do not pump heated liquids.
8. Operate in freshwater only. Avoid heavily chlorinated water and water with high PH levels.
PUMP ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Remove the pump from the package and untie the power cord.
2. Place the pump in the desired location in your pond or fountain ensuring that it is completely submerged in the water. If the pump is to be used in a pond,
raise the pump off of the pond floor to ensure that it is above any dirt that will collect as this will adversely affect the performance of the pump.
3. Adjust the flow rate (if applicable) to the maximum (+) position.
4. If there is a light included with the fountain, connect the low voltage power cord from the light to the pump / Transformer.
5. Connect the low voltage power cord from the pump to the transformer. Place the transformer in a clean, dry area.
6. Connect the power cord from the transformer to a properly grounded, grounding type receptacle (GFCI).
7. If necessary, readjust the flow rate to the desired level (remember to always disconnect from the power source before handling the pump).
CARE & MAINTENANCE:
1. Keep the water clean – clean water will prolong the useful life of your pump.
2. Use a pre-filter on your pump if available.
3. Regular cleaning of the pump will be necessary depending upon the environment in which it is operated. Clean the pump when it is visibly soiled or
when a noticeable drop in performance is detected. Failure to clean the pump will result in overheating of the pump and the voiding of the
warranty!
4. Before cleaning, always disconnect the pump from the power source.
5. Disassemble the pump by removing the inlet screen & the impeller housing. Remove the impeller/rotor assembly by gently pulling on the impeller blades.
Use a soft cloth or brush to clean the area inside of the pump where the impeller/rotor assembly was. Clean the inlet screen, impeller housing & impeller
in warm soapy water. Reassemble the pump and inspect for proper operation.
HINTS & TROUBLESHOOTING:
1. Ensure that the pump’s flow control switch is set to maximum (+) before operating. Once the flow is established, the pump can be adjusted downward to
the desired level.
2. If the pump operates, but there is no flow, check to ensure the pump is fully submerged.
3. If the pump operates, but there is no flow, check the supply tubing for kinks and correct.
4. If the pump operates, but there is no flow, and if the pump is submerged and there are no kinks in the supply tubing, lift the pump from the water. Remove
supply tubing at pump outlet and clean tubing inside and out if necessary. Reset pump in water (outlet side up) and once water begins to flow, re-attach
the supply tubing.
LIGHT BULB REPLACEMENT INSTRUCTIONS:
1. If the accent light bulb is burned out, unplug the transformer from the power source. Wait a few minutes until the light is fully cool.
2. Pull the glass tube that covers the light bulb, from the receptacle by firmly grasping and twisting the tube (See fig 6).
3. The bulb may now be pulled from its socket and replaced with a new bulb (See fig. 7).
