STEP 14
HOOK UP AND LEVEL THE WATERFALL SPILLWAY
• Fold liner over top of Waterfall Spillway. It is recommended
to provide some slack in the liner in case the position of
the Waterfall Spillway needs minor adjustment during
installation (Ex. 25).
• Use a screw driver or awl, puncture a small hole in the
liner through the center of the Waterfall Spillway bulkhead.
This will be your reference point for the location of the liner
connection (Ex. 26).
Ex. 25
• Unfold the liner back off the Waterfall Spillway and remove
the retaining nut from the Waterfall Spillway bulkhead.
Center the retaining nut over the puncture hole in the liner.
Use a pen, marker, or sharp tool, to trace a line around the
inside of the nut (Ex. 27).
• Remove the retaining nut and trim a hole in the liner
approximately 1/8 inch inside of the score mark (Ex. 28).
Ex. 27
• Remove the outer rubber gasket from the Waterfall
Spillway fitting. Insert the hole in the liner over the Waterfall
Spillway bulkhead. The liner should fit snug around base of
the Waterfall Spillway fitting (Ex. 29).
• Place the second rubber gasket onto the fitting.
NOTE: The liner should be located between both rubber
gaskets (Ex. 30).

• Place retaining nut on Waterfall Spillway and hand tighten.
The fitting is reverse threaded, refer to the arrow located
on the retaining nut for proper direction. Use channel
locks to tighten down the retaining nut an additional 1/4 to
1/2 turn past hand tight being careful to not over tighten
retaining nut, which could possibly crack the plastic fittings
(Ex. 31).
• Install the MPT barb fitting into the back of the Waterfall
Spillway. To provide a water tight seal, use the included
silicone sealant on the threads of the fitting. Be careful not
to over tighten pipe fitting, which could possibly crack the
plastic fittings (Ex. 32).
Ex. 26
• The Waterfall Spillway is now ready for the pipe to be
installed and secured in place with a hose clamp (Ex. 33).
• Disguise the Waterfall Spillway using boulders, logs, gravel,
soil, or other creative landscape material (Ex. 34).

ADD WATERFALL FOAM
• The Pond and Waterfall Foam Sealant provided is used to
fill in gaps between the rocks of your waterfall. The foam
keeps water flowing over the top of the rocks. Without the
foam you will lose the impact of your waterfall, as water
travels beneath the rocks (Ex. 35).
