ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
1. Make sure you are assembling your fountain on a level surface.
2. This fountain will need to be installed on a surface capable of holding a minimum of 489 pounds in
approximately a 1.75 square foot area.
3. Place the Pedestal (FT-192F) into position where the fountain will be installed.
4. Feed the pump cord through the hole in the Large Bowl (FT-192E) and down through the Pedestal.
5. Pull the pump cord all the way through the bottom of the basin, leaving enough cord length in the bowl to work
with the pump outside the pump cover.
6. To ensure a level installation, bring the pump cord out through the channel in the bottom of the Pedestal.
7. Place the Large Bowl on top of the Pedestal, ensuring that it is centered and leveled.
8. See enclosed stopper assembly instructions and complete before continuing.
9. Attach the 5/8” clear end of the tubing assembly to the pump outlet.
10. If you wish to use one of the hose clamps as a flow restrictor, you must install it on the tubing at this point.
11. Place the pump cover (FT-192C) over the pump. Ensure it is centered and leveled.
12. Feed the other end of the tubing up through the pump cover.
13. Place a hose clamp over the ½” end of the tubing assembly.
14. Connect that end of the tubing to the bottom pipe of the small bowl (FT-192B). Tighten the hose clamp to
ensure a good seal.
15. Place the small bowl on top of the pump cover. Ensure it is centered and leveled.
16. Place the Finial (FT-192A) into the small bowl by placing the hole in the bottom over the pipe protruding up
from the small bowl.
17. Place the pump cover door (FT-192D) in the pump access opening of the pump cover.
18. Fill the basin with approximately 5 gallons of 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.
