ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
1. Make sure you are assembling your fountain on a level surface.
2. Place the Basin (FT-67C) into position where the fountain will be installed.
3. Feed the pump cord through the hole in the basin leaving enough cord length to work with the pump.
4. See enclosed stopper assembly instructions and complete before continuing.
5. Pull the pump cord all the way through the bottom of the basin.
6. To ensure a level installation, bring the pump cord out through the channel in the bottom of the basin.
7. Place a hose clamp over one end of the ½” non kink tubing.
8. Connect that end of the tubing to the pump outlet. Tighten the hose clamp to ensure a good seal.
9. If you wish to use one of the hose clamps as a flow restrictor, you must install it on the tubing at this point.
10. Place the pump cover (FT-67B) over the pump. Ensure it is centered and leveled.
11. Thread the ¾” male threaded ½” barb adapter into the bottom threaded copper of the water feature.
12. Place a hose clamp over the other end of the ½” non kink tubing.
13. Attach that end to the barb of the adapter threaded into the water feature (FT-67A). Tighten the hose clamp to
ensure a good seal.
14. Place the Water Feature on top of the pump cover. Ensure it is centered and leveled.
a. NOTE: the water feature MUST be properly leveled in order for the water to flow correctly.
15. If the copper pipe is not already installed, run a small bead of silicone around the outside of one end of the
pipe.
16. Insert the pipe into the copper fitting inside the water feature.
17. Allow 24 hours for the silicone to dry.
18. Fill the basin with water.
a. NOTE: Do not run fountain without sufficient water. If the pump is allowed to run dry, it can damage
the pump.
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.
